Luckily Turkish Visa policy is very friendly. Here's the link from
Ministry of Foreign Affairs web page, describing Visa details for almost
all countries:
http://www.mfa.gov.tr/MFA/ConsularInformation/ForForeigners/VisaInformation/VisaInformationForForeigners.htm

For most European countries visa is required and most of Latin countries
are exempt from Visa, but visa is easy to get at border gates. Fees are
listed below:

This information is better to have its place at l.g.o.
