Only 39.62.0.0/16 seems somewhat worth reporting, as SheryOfficial is still using this as recent as yesterday [1], as yourself also noticed. Though others seem to be using this range as well. The user account you included doesn't seem to be them, not the same patterns. HistoryofIran (talk) 14:25, 22 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
OK. I didn’t find anything that I would consider an obvious giveaway from Apni_Baat, however I did see some suspicious things, which is why I thought it was a good idea to request for a check on them. Also would you recommend adding 182.191.0.0/16? This is the cluster of IPs behind [2][3], and recently, [4]. HyperShark244 (talk) 15:13, 22 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I see you all over iranian wikipedia like everywhere what is your goal exactly also that map you made of the sassanids what sources did you use? MrHappy2020 (talk) 17:16, 13 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I would really like the sources for the map as i have talked with other Sassanian map makers and sometimes they agreed with you and sometimes they didnt MrHappy2020 (talk) 11:53, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Sheriff. Definitely something suspicious, but I'm actually a bit unsure about their connection to PakistanHistorian. They have the same geolocation PakistanHistorians suspected IPs and are also interested in Punjabi related stuff. It seems they have been active in this range at least several times [5]. I do have some thoughts about this, I've written a comment in the talk page. HistoryofIran (talk) 15:35, 16 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The User talk:185.146.112.192 is engaging in disrupte editing. Neither does this IP provide sources and is POV pushing. And this IP has been warned multiple times for this on his/her talk page.
After he/she was blocked for 24 hours, this IP created an account as User talk:Ibish Agayev in order to evade the block and has resumed his/her POV pushing.
Thank you for the reply and thank you very much for the vandalism alert about this IP.
The IP's account User talk:Ibish Agayev has been permanently blocked, but the IP will almost certainly resume his/her POV pushing, once his/her 24 hour block ends.
The IP has also done the same POV pushing under different IP numbers, which you can see in the history section of the article Siege of Lankaran.
If they continue (which I also think is a high possibility), then a range block seems to be the best opinion - it's probably best for it to be requested through a WP:SPI. This seems to the range they're using [7]. I would wait for them to continue before filing a SPI, so your case is taken fully serious. HistoryofIran (talk) 22:25, 24 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello HistoryofIran, may you be surrounded by peace, success and happiness on this seasonal occasion. Spread the WikiLove by wishing another user a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past, a good friend, or just some random person. Sending you heartfelt and warm greetings for Christmas and New Year 2025. Happy editing, Theofunny (talk) 14:05, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Kiwipete. IP seems to be pov pushing, adding Persian-related stuff and removing Arab-related stuff. I've reverted the rest of their edits, best. HistoryofIran (talk) 11:29, 29 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Farsi?
Hi HistoryofIran, long time no speak. Do you understand Farsi, or know an editor who does? At FAC we have couple of Farsi sources which we need someone to check to ensure that they match what the article says. Thanks. Gog the Mild (talk) 12:12, 29 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Gog, long time no speak indeed. I understand Farsi, but unfortunately not its script.. so yeah. Though ChatGPT has never failed to deliver with its excellent translations when I've used it. Perhaps you could be interested in this one, @Hounaam:? You obviously don't have to reply, just thought of your nice recent edits. HistoryofIran (talk) 22:40, 29 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Dear @HistoryofIran Thank you so much for reaching out and for your trust in me. While my specialization lies in art and culture, reviewing Persian texts and inscriptions is certainly within my expertise, and I’m more than happy to assist.
You are absolutely right about the need for exact references regarding Siyâvush Beg Gorji. What we currently have is Siavashon (Savashon), which relates to art of Safavid. I’ve added a note to the text emphasizing that further research is necessary. Hopefully, this will encourage researchers to explore this topic in greater detail.
Thank you for your reply. I think that reaching out to researchers and sharing this topic is a great idea. It’s also worth noting that another Georgian painter, who is buried in Zavarek, might be a relative of Siyâvush Beg Gorji. He served as both a painter and a military commander under Nader Shah.
Hello there, 'tis the season again, believe it or not, the years pass so quickly now! A big thank you for all of your contributions to Wikipedia in 2024! Wishing you a Very happy and productive 2025! ♦ Maliner (talk) 21:24, 31 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The Nakhchivan Khanate had a flag and the coat of arms. I don't understand the reason you reverted the changes and removed the flag and the coat of arms Egl7 (talk) 14:32, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I made a research of the editing history of this article and seen that there was a language that a person wanted to add to the languages officially spoken in Nakhchivan Khanate. In response you reverted the changes back and told him that the language he wanted to add was not officially spoken in Nakhchivan Khanate. But then someone added the same language again and nothing was reverted back. What is the reason you ignored those changes? Is that language now considered as one of the languages that have been officially spoken there? Egl7 (talk) 15:45, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Please don't create multiple sections for the same article, it's just gonna make it messy. And I'm not sure I understand what you're saying, linking diffs would be helpful. And most importantly of all, please read WP:RS. --HistoryofIran (talk) 15:48, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
What..? First diff I remove are unofficial, irrelevant languages in the lede, the other diff a random IP adds Armenian under common languages in the infobox, where Azerbaijani is also mentioned - what do they have to do with each other? Why do you even know of such diffs so long ago, do you have other, older accounts? Also, I don't appreciate you doing this [8]. You do not decide what article I want to edit. And that's not "ancient cities and khanates of Azerbaijan" per WP:RS, Azerbaijan first becoming a country in 1918, here are many relevant WP:RS citations [9][10][11][12]. HistoryofIran (talk) 16:31, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I don't understand the reason you are accusing me of these things and the reason you are almost unkind to me. So you are telling me that a random IP can make changes to a article and it's going to be ignored? Then why didn't you ignore my changes and the changes that were done in the first link i sent to you? You are accusing me of having older accounts that literally makes no sense, because anyone can see what edits have been done to an article the whole time. I could even have other accounts and I don't understand what's so bad about it? In the first link you can see that someone adds a language, then you revert his changes back. I noticed that you specifically ignored the changes done in the second link i sent to you. And you are the one accusing me of having other accounts? I know that Azerbaijan became a country in 1918. Before becoming a country this territory consisted of khanates. These khanates didn't want to unite much earlier and that's why Azerbaijan became a country only in 1918. Honestly I didn't go into details and thought that in the first link user adds Armenian in the infobox. Okay. If you are telling me that you removed the unofficial Armenian language that has not been officially spoken in Nakhchivan Khanate (we are talking about the first link here), then why did you let a random IP address Armenian to the infobox? I don't appreciate you doing these. I was never rude to you all this time and you are telling me that i don't decide what article you want to edit when I never told you that. You are right, these khanates were not officially a part of Azerbaijan, but i want to note that people in this territory are called Azerbaijani, and there are even 30 million Azerbaijani people living in the territory of current Iran which is also called Southern Azerbaijan because even many people who are citizens of Iran consider themselves Azerbaijanis, there are 30 million of those people. I'm telling you this so you know that these people live on these lands since a very long time, there is no way that so many people just randomly appeared here. Egl7 (talk) 17:39, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I think you're heavily misunderstanding something here. Please re-read my comment.
Then why didn't you ignore my changes and the changes that were done in the first link i sent to you?
You were already told of this.
You are accusing me of having older accounts that literally makes no sense, because anyone can see what edits have been done to an article the whole time. I could even have other accounts and I don't understand what's so bad about it? And you are the one accusing me of having other accounts?
I asked you if have older accounts, you could just say yes or no (it's not against the rules to have more than one account, you just need to mention it on your userpages though). It's really not that serious. Yes, but very rarely does something jump to diff almost 2 years ago and bring them up.
Okay. If you are telling me that you removed the unofficial Armenian language that has not been officially spoken in Nakhchivan Khanate (we are talking about the first link here), then why did you let a random IP address Armenian to the infobox?
Please re-read my comment and look at that edit again, it's located in "common_languages" in the infobox. "Common" and "Official" are not the same thing.
you are telling me that i don't decide what article you want to edit when I never told you that.
Then why did you randomly tagging me and ask others why I am "controlling" "articles of ancient cities and khanates of Azerbaijan" despite "not being a member" of WikiProject Azerbaijan...? Is there a rule for that?
You are right, these khanates were not officially a part of Azerbaijan, but i want to note that people in this territory are called Azerbaijani, and there are even 30 million Azerbaijani people living in the territory of current Iran which is also called Southern Azerbaijan because even many people who are citizens of Iran consider themselves Azerbaijanis, there are 30 million of those people. I'm telling you this so you know that these people live on these lands since a very long time, there is no way that so many people just randomly appeared here.
So what is the reason you ignored the user in the second link? How did a random IP get away with it so easy?
Some of your questions are unnecessary and having multiple accounts is not that serious.
I asked that question in the talk of project Azerbaijan because of my own free will, if i'm interested in something i can know the answer, there is nothing wrong with asking those questions and there is nothing to be ashamed of. I'm new here, that's why i'm not a member of project Azerbaijan but i can be one in the future too if i want to.
I also asked that question because it would seem weird not only to me but also to others that a user that doesn't participate in project Azerbaijan but specifically participates not only in project Armenia but also many other things related to Armenia controls the article of khanate that now is a city of Azerbaijan
So you can't tell how so many people of one ethnicity can appear on these land in a very little time because it's physically impossible to reproduce that fast.

Again, I have already answered this. There was nothing wrong with their edit, unless you mean to claim that Armenian was not spoken in the Nakhchevan Khanate at all. The more important question is why are you swapping the place of Armenian and Kurdish, so the former appears lower? [13].
Some of your questions are unnecessary and having multiple accounts is not that serious.
I find it pretty relevant to ask when you bring up two random diffs from almost 2 years ago. And I know it's not that serious, I just said that.

There are more polite ways to do that. Such as simply asking me now that you're here.
I also asked that question because it would seem weird not only to me but also to others that a user that doesn't participate in project Azerbaijan but specifically participates not only in project Armenia but also many other things related to Armenia controls the article of khanate that now is a city of Azerbaijan
WikiProjects aren't that serious. It's just a little neat thing, everyone can easily become a "member". I had completely forgot that I was a "member" of WikiProject Armenia before you mentioned it.
So you can't tell how so many people of one ethnicity can appear on these land in a very little time because it's physically impossible to reproduce that fast.
You could add Armenian language yourself too if you are a big supporter of the changes made by the user in the second link. You contradict yourself. You told the user in the first link that Armenian was not officially spoken there and now you are telling me that it was a "former" language? Then what is stopping you from swapping Armenian and Azerbaijani?
I apologize if that hurt your feelings, but it's not impolite to asks questions that don't contain hate speech, harassment or sexually explicit language.
It's a little suspicious because everything in your profile is about supporting Armenia's actions.
I will take time and go into details of it, but some of the links you marked here hurt to read. These sources are not reliable at all and i don't think that they are approved.

What does that have to do with anything? I could add Armenian yes, I also couldn't. I could do a lot of things - which is my own business. I have other things to do than edit in Wikipedia. "Official" and "common" does still not mean the same thing.
I apologize if that hurt your feelings, but it's not impolite to asks questions that don't contain hate speech, harassment or sexually explicit language.
Please look up the meaning of "impolite" as well.
It's a little suspicious because everything in your profile is about supporting Armenia's actions.
That so? I have three things (out of 25) about Armenia on my userpage, the WikiProject Armenia, being interested in the history of Greater Armenia, and opposing the denial of the Armenian genocide. So how does that "support" Armenia's "actions"? Did the Armenian genocide not happen? Please answer.
I will take time and go into details of it, but some of the links you marked here hurt to read. These sources are not reliable at all and i don't think that they are approved.
It's obvious that you are active here if you reverted my changes back and answered my questions in minutes. And i'm sure that if i swap Azerbaijani and Armenian languages you are going to ignore my changes.
If someone says something wrong about, for example, your friend, something that is considered wrong about them, at least between you two, wouldn't you tell them about it right away? It would be a shame to ignore that and keep silent, right? So what do you want me to do? If I hadn't done that to my friend, it would be very impolite towards them.
You are not kidding, right? The point of your profile is mostly to support Armenia's actions. The fact that you ask me this question means that everything that was added to the description of your account was added intentionally. I did not refute anything that was written in your profile but you don't support both sides at all, there is nothing about Azerbaijan in your profile yet you are here reverting back changes of article that belongs to the khanate which is now a city of Azerbaijan. Did Khojali genocide not happen? You are telling me that you have three things about Armenia but you also have 0 about Azerbaijan. You are here on Wikipedia 12 years and you are trying to tell me that you don't know everything so well? If you are going to tell me that it's the sources and you didn't do anything wrong: you are literally stating the sources that contain only negativity about Azerbaijan. You are not doing justice. Azerbaijan is all negativity to you. Can you people just live in peace? Tell me honestly do you really like to spread negativity?
I'm telling you again, i opened one of the links you sent to me and i was frightened. Everything is against Azerbaijan here. The wprs is not reliable and these sources are not reliable at all.
Also i don't quite understand this "Wikipedia does engage in anachronism". Wikipedia says itself that there are 30 million people living in Iran. I opened up the en.wikipedia and it says 23 millions. Is this not convincing? Do you mean that this is anachronism? Then I can call everything i see "anachronism" on Wikipedia. Egl7 (talk) 20:39, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It seems you still don't get the difference between those two diffs. And you do not know me, so please refrain from making these kind of claims. And you did still not answer why you swapped Armenian and Kurdish, so that the former appeared last.

So... did the Armenian genocide happen? It's a simple yes or no question.

Tell me why would it be the other way. There were more Kurdish people than Armenian, so how is it possible that there is a bigger number of people that spoke Armenian?
It did happen, though, in many sources it's said that it was a war, not a genocide. What does this have to do with all i said above?
So do you betray your friends? This is a simple yes or no question.
Did the Khojali genocide happen? It's also a simple yes or no question.
I repeat that i don't quite understand this "Wikipedia does engage in anachronism". Wikipedia says itself that there are 30 million people living in Iran. I opened up the en.wikipedia and it says 23 millions. Is this not convincing? Do you mean that this is anachronism? Then I can call everything i see "anachronism" on Wikipedia.
I never mentioned neither any issues with any country nor any conflicts.

Hazrat Ishaan stuff
Hello, me again. So a while back I did some clean-up on the article Qadiriyya wa Naqshbandiyya, to make it look like a proper Wikipedia article.[14] I also saw something some months ago on Reddit about some dude called Raphael Dakik, a German-Afghan who created a government-in-exile.[15] I spent some time leaning about Dakik, and I have got an idea of who he is. So then I came across this,[16] and decided to help Remote-Control65 out.[17] After looking at Remote-Control65's contributions, I could see that they are somewhat of a WP:SPA, all their contributions are basically like these.[18][19][20][21] However, I think there is more to this guy- they could be a sockpuppet of Sayyid Mir Israfil, who I heard of from the Qadiriyya wa Naqshbandiyya page [22]. I have launched an investigation here. HyperShark244 (talk) 05:33, 9 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
In the Middle Persian language, the title of the Sassanian monarch was “Shahan shah i Eran ud Aneran”. “Eran” (from which the modern name “Iran” deprives from) means “Iranians” in Middle Persian and “Aneran” means “non-Iranians” in Middle Persian.
So yeah, “King of Kings of Iranians and non-Iranians” is a far better and more accurate translation than “King of Kings of Iran and non-Iran” Ironzombie39 (talk) 22:01, 13 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your contributions to Mehdi Bamdad. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability and it needs to be expanded.
I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.
