If you have the western dates of historical events you can add them to the article of the correspondent day; for example the ascension of Khomeini to power is listed in the article for February 11. In the case of Islamic calendar events, you can only propose them for the day of the western calendar they correspond this year. If you have an objection or suggestion for some day's selection, comment it in the page of that day's Selected Anniversaries article; here you can start your search. Perhaps we should have some way to list Islamic calendar events. Anyway, I hope I was helpful!--cloviz 02:24, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

Shi'a POV issuesSV, you may have grown up "knowing" a great many things, but they are not necessarily things that an academic historian would accept. You may feel these things deeply, but that doesn't mean that they should be stated as fact, rather than Shi'a POV. As for the Sunni view of Yazid article -- Striver has worked that over thoroughly and turned it into a Shi'a article in disguise. He has combed Shi'a sites for any mention of Sunni historians taking a negative view of Yazid I, and entered all that in the article. Since Sunnis don't care that much about the issue, there has been no Sunni activity to bring the article back into balance. I have not had the time or the energy to counter Striver's energetic distortion of history. What you may not understand is that ALL the early Islamic history we know is contained in texts that weren't written down until the early Abbasid period. The Abbasids overthrew the Umayyads as usurpers and claimed the caliphate as the senior line of the Banu Hashim. Therefore none of the Abbasid historians, Sunni or Shi'a, have anything good to say of the Umayyads. After all, it was necessary to justify the overthrow. Of course you're going to find Sunnis saying nasty things about the Umayyads. That doesn't mean that they're true. After looking over the Abi Meknaf book you like so much, I moved it into the Shi'a external links. It is not a reliable text.

Please do realise, that Abu Mikhnaf as a main source has been quoted by not Shi'ite historians as at-Tabari and al-Baladhuri. Thank you for your interest. Orientalist from the de: WP
ReliableSV, have you had any academic training in history? I'm wondering, because we seem to be talking right past each other. I'm NOT rejecting Muslims, or Shi'a, as sources. I'm saying that you have to use them carefully and ask the right questions. It's not black-and-white, all true or completely false. Suppose we have a manuscript that can be reliably dated to 1200 CE, and it purports to describe things that happened in 700 CE, for which there is otherwise no record. A historian would want to be very careful in using that manuscript as evidence for what happened in 700 CE. It's possible that there were intermediate manuscripts that were destroyed. Or perhaps there weren't. It's also possible, but extremely unlikely, that oral tradition had preserved something for 500 years. Oral tradition changes over time. However, the 1200 manuscript is very good evidence for what people believed in 1200! It all depends on what questions you ask. Historians also try to use bits of evidence in combination, like a detective solving a crime. If A and B are political enemies and have entirely different views of a certain event in history, the area where they overlap, the stuff that "everyone knows" and can't be fudged -- that at least is evidence of common belief and possibly historical reality. Because the methods of history are improving all the time (for instance, now we can use genetic markers, per Cavalli-Sforza) a historian using up-to-date methods may come to different conclusions than people using older methods. Modern historians are also on the alert for religious or ideological presuppostions that distort perceptions. No one can ever be quite free of them, but one can try. For those reasons, the work of the older Muslim historians is not accepted as "true," but as something to be investigated and sifted. Tabari is accepted for some things and rejected as mistaken on others. You seem to me to be working from a very black and white model. Sources are either trustworthy, and to be accepted in toto, or untrustworthy, and to be rejected. It's more of a spectrum, with most sources in the middle. I like some of your recent changes to the article. I've just been very busy yesterday and today (one of my cats is ill) and haven't had a chance to try a rewrite.

Re:your noteBe sapaas e faravan az vaghtee ke gozashteed. Man nazar e khodam ro be tarteeb e shomareh minevisam:
There are some statements in the article like "creative fundamentalism". I agree with your point. I kept them in the article for the sake of completeness.
When I started this article I knew this article will be attacked by some Islamophobes. I knew that if I leave this issue uncovered they will come and cover it in a biased way. Perhaps you know these users very well. Unfortunately most of these users are familiar with minor figures like Bokhari from the media, while they have never heard anything about Motahhari and Beheshti etc.
Also: I believe the article need to have a very simple language with a lot of examples and photos. It needs to be accessible to non Iranians and non experts. And the best way to keep it away from attacks is the following: we need to have a comprehensive article and accept inclusionism. I also tried to include the definition of fundamentalism and its root from the point of view of fundamentalists. The article is there and I invite you and others to rewrite it. For the very simpel reason that I wrote almost everything, it is not free from bias. I think you are knowledgable and I invite you to add info or edit the article, delete my writings etc. I still think the article has a much higher quality in comparison to similar articles that we have for other countries or for the muslim world.

Ashura Articleالسلام عليكم و رحمة الله و بركات Regarding the Ashura article, from my (Sunni perspective) the page does not give a balanced point of view. The day is significant to all Muslims, Sunni and Shi'a, but if someone had to read the article, they would not understand that there are two points of view. For instance, statements like "Commemoration of Ashura is not a festival, but rather a sad event for both Shi'as and Sunni Muslims" are misleading. To me and other Sunni's I know, the day was proclaimed to be a holy day by our prophet SAW because of all the positive things that happened on the day. Sunni's are encouraged to spend on their families (gifts etc.). Yes, a sad event did occur on the day, but it is the general opinion of Sunni's I know that this does not detract from the positive events that occurred on the day. Furthermore, the "popular customs" section does not apply to Sunni's but the article gives an impression that it does. A fair approach to both Sunni and Shi'a would be to separate the article into separate Shi'a and Sunni sections. Yusufk 12:55, 31 January 2007 (UTC) Re: Are you well?Unfortunately the article appeared very different then than it does now. Another major factor is the name, which frames the contents in an improper manner. Perhaps I will amend my statement to better reflect these points. TewfikTalk 04:47, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

If you follow what happened to the article User:Farhoudk made on religious democracy, you see my point. His article had a good quality but a low survival. I think we need to be intelligent and use our experience. I have clear evidence that our article has a high survival and now we can increase its quality. There are issues in the article that are not neccessary when it comes to quality but they are necessary when it comes to the survival of the article against attacks. I am sure when an islamophobe or a user with extreme anti Iran POV sees the article, he/she will not have any desire to attack the article. This is the function of those "un-necessary ponits" that are mentioned in the article, to my mind. About neo-fundamentalism or neo-conservatism I have to say that I don't see it as a big deviation from main stream fundamentalism in Iran. I think they just use new tools for the same goals.

Let's just hope it doesn't come to pass ; ) Joshdboz 11:54, 13 February 2007 (UTC) Safavid DynastySalam. Yes, I agree with your edits so far. Totally agree with top part, except you might want to change independent Iranian state to Iranian empire, as that was part of the consensus. Also, the background of Safavi order has lower priority than founder section, because the page is devoted to Safavid Dynasty, and the founder of Dynasty was Ismail, who was of Safavi order. So it should first introduce the founder, then about his background. But in general, I agree with your balanced edit. Thanks for doing this. Atabek 17:25, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
Homa DarabiI think the information is insufficient."Dr. Homa Darabi after 50-lashes, punishment for violation of sharia. Darabi had attended a family gathering were men other than her father and brother were present." As I know there are too many mixed party in Iran and if government wants to punish all of them, then it may include more than 20 million persons. At least I was present in some of them when I was child. Thus there should be happened something worse like drinking alcohol, etc. Furthermore there isn't such punishment in Islam for mixed party.--Sa.vakilian 19:25, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
SafavidI think your edit with regards to Safavid was constructive. Although the later Safavids probably used Persian as their primary language. Specially after the relocation to Esfahan. But I'll wait for the opinion of others, but I like the current edits. If others accept it, then the better. If not, then I guess we need to build more concensus. But thanks for getting involved in the article. --alidoostzadeh 04:55, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
Patchouli stuffI see you have had problems with Patchouli's POV editing as well, such as at Mutaween, where Patchouli simply removed your disputed tag despite the fact that there was a dispute. These things must be noted. Feel free to contribute to the current ANI, or you can just reserve your say for the ArbCom itself. I will notify you when it begins; I aim to start it up within the next 24 hours. I have some deadlines to meet outside of WP that need to be taken care of first, then I need to read up more on the ArbCom process, but after these things I will start it.

translationHi That translation you requested is rough because the first sentence is the size of a normal English paragraph. It seems you did most of the job though and I gave it a shot (although my interest in wikipedia is with regards to history). According to his commandment to Bazargan: "Respected Engineer Bazargan. Based the recommendations of Revolutionary Council, and in accordance with the religious rights and legal rights which originated from the vote of overwhelming majority of Iranian nation for leadership of the movement which has been represented in the vast gatherings and wide demonstrations in total area of Iran and because of my utmost trust on your solid faith in holy school of Islam and my knowledge of your precedent in Islamic and national endeavors, I appoint you. This appointment was taken without taking into consideration your relationship with any parties and dependence in especial group and was taken in order for formation of temporary government to arrange organizing of country affairs and especially perform a referendum and refer to public vote of nation about turning the country into Islamic republic and formation of "Establishment council" from the representatives of people to approve of constitution of new regime and on the basis this new constitution, the election of representatives of parliament of nation. It is necessary that you appoint and introduce the members of the temporary government as soon as possible in concordance with the conditions I have clarified. Government and military officials and citizens of the country are urged to cooperate fully with your temporary government and adhere to reach the goals of the holy revolution and establish order to the affairs of the country. At this sensitive juncture of history, I praise and ask God for your success and that of the temporary government.’’ Ruhollah Al-Musavi al-Khomeini I do not have time right now to refurbish the translation, but I think you can take it from here. --alidoostzadeh 17:34, 16 February 2007 (UTC) Your suggestionThank you for your suggestion.

Do you want me to add them and put the quotation in the quotation section? --Leroy65X 17:50, 20 February 2007 (UTC) I think the quotation is too long for the article but might work in the quotation section at the end. I'm a newbee so I'm not sure what the policy is on long quotes. I'll try and find out. --Leroy65X 16:54, 21 February 2007 (UTC) My Alleged POV edition of Iranian RevolutionSalam alaika (or ki). My quotes and evidence comes from quite well known analysts and observers- Moin, Brumber, Keddie, etc. (e.g. while other groups were misled by Khomeinist statements giving "a democratic interpretion of the future Islamic Republic." [1] that you deleted comes from a well known analyst of Iran Nikki Keddie. [19] She is not a Muslim, but like many foreign observers, she thought the Shah a tyrant and was excited about the revolution in 1978-9.) Yes, we should have positive as well as negative information. I tried to balance the information on women in the Islamic revolution. (Note: I tried to do this also on the wiki article on Khomeini but it was contintually deleted by a certain Marmoulak.) Yes, I have never been to Iran. Most of my information on Iran comes from reading about it. I am an American and it is hard for non-Iranian Americans to go to Iran.

I have known many Iranians in the US--personally and professionally, and like Persian dancing and food. There are two Persian restaurants in my neighborhood. I did read about the large population of Jews in Iran more than any Muslim country in the world on an article at the Jimena Web site. I was sad that the government does not allow the school the Jewish kids attend to close on Shabbat. Do you know that this means that Jews cannot practice their religion fully? In the US schools are not closed on Fridays; I am not sure if this is considered a problem for Muslims. Elizmr 01:10, 23 February 2007 (UTC) Interesting changes, you really did your research. Although I don't know so much on the topic of Jews in Iran, I think this is a good step in the right direction in this controversial article and I think people on "both sides" of the "argument" can see the merits of this. Keep up the great work. Valley2city 22:23, 25 February 2007 (UTC) Latest in Iranian RevolutionI made a bunch of edits and additions I think you will think are good.

Re:your noteSalam I understand your point. My aim of writing this article was the following:
Honestly I am no expert on this issue and I don't support a single statement of the article personally. However I can clearly see that most Iranian thinkers don't understand it either. What shall we do then? We have to start from somewhere. Should we wait until an American neo-con initiate such an article? Who should write this article? people like Tabatabai? people like Doustdar? people like Soroush? people like Mesbah? people like Khatami? people like Yousef Sanei? people like Emad Afrough? people like Ahmad Sadri? Bernard Lewis? Jahanbegloo? Davari? Mohammad Arkoun?

The Template: name space should not be used for personal things. Secondly, that page looks a lot like a signature template, and the policy at WP:SIG specifically prohibits signature templates.

Dev920 (Have a nice day!) 11:47, 21 March 2007 (UTC) Please reconsider your vote to merge Human rights in pre-Saddam IraqHi Sa.vakilian, I've just put a lot of work into improving Human rights in pre-Saddam Iraq so that the article is not now anything like what it was when you voted to merge. I think it may meet your objections to it, so please take another look and see what you think. I'm still not satisfied with the article, but it has roughly the proper scope and many more reliable sources. I think what I've done shows that there's too much material out there to merge this article with anything else. Significant gaps remain and some subjects should have footnotes from more sources, but I think the article is several steps toward what it should be. Best, Noroton 23:00, 21 March 2007 (UTC) SaddamI agree. Noroton 02:47, 22 March 2007 (UTC) Oh, I didn't see your other statement. I agree about Saddam using WMDs. As far as disambiguation page versus a main page, that is more work than I'm willing to do, at least any time soon. I like the idea of being able to say on it that Saddam was by far the worst of a series of bad regimes, but beyond that political point, I'm not sure what the historical value is. I'm agnostic on that. I just want to make sure that this information is preserved. I'm also not sure how long this pre-Saddam article is going to be, although I know it's eventually going to be longer, so no matter what happens, I think this article is necessary.

In this map, Khorasan is shown as an administrative division within the Abbasid caliphate. It may not show the entire regions of Khorasan. About Sabzevar, I think Damghan was the most western city in Khorasan. Just as an example, in Noorul-Ulum (the work of Abul-Hassan Kharaqani), Kharaqan (located in north of Shahrood) was called as a town in Khorasan. This point can be easily observed in the map that you presented. Damaghan is situated in the frontier of Khorasan (khorasan province in Abbasid caliphate) in the map.

If you did not understand the reaction to the absurdity of a country essentially declaring war on a B-grade movie, then pershaps you need to revisit humor.
