There were two battleships being built in Britain for Turkey before 1914, both were withheld until it was known on which side Turkey would enter WW1.

No, Britain did not build any battleships for Turkey during World War 1. However, they did build and deliver two dreadnought battleships for the Ottoman Empire (which included present-day Turkey) in the years leading up to the war. These were the Sultan Osman I and Reşadiye, which were both commissioned in 1914.

Why was dreadnought built?
There started a race to build new battleships between Britain and Germany. Although Britan's navy was the largest in the world, she was worried about the growing size of the German navy. so, Britain built 29 dreadnoughts from 1906 to 1914, Germany built 17 from 1908 to 1914. As Germany started to build a large battlefleet to challenge British supremacy, the tension between the two countries increased too. This arms race began in the 1890s.
