Hi Emre,

The very first step is to read 
http://codex.wordpress.org/Translating_WordPress . This will give you an 
overview of the process. (There is apparently an entry for the Turkish 
team already at 
http://codex.wordpress.org/L10n:Localization_Teams#Turkish_.E2.80.93_T.C3.BCrk.C3.A7e)

The creation of a tr.wordpress.org is also pretty straightforward and is 
documented here: http://codex.wordpress.org/International_WordPress_Sites

Let us know if you have any doubts on those two links
