The first national anthem of I.R. Iran

Dear Pahlevun,

The first national anthem of I.R. Iran was in use during Bazagan's government. Do you speak Persian? If so, I can show you a resource. Shfarshid (talk) 13:28, 28 February 2017 (UTC)

Hello User:Shfarshid. No Problem, bring your source. Pahlevun (talk) 14:36, 28 February 2017 (UTC)
It is an interview with the composer of the first IRI anthem. In this interview, it is mentioned that this anthem was televised on 12 Farvardin 1358. So, it was in use during the interim government of Iran era. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shfarshid (talk • contribs) 19:15, 28 February 2017 (UTC)
Any evidence that it has been adopted by the Council of the Islamic Revolution or Interim Government of Iran as the national anthem? Pahlevun (talk) 12:22, 1 March 2017 (UTC)
As far as I know, all of Iranians national anthems are adopted by Shah (before 1979 revolution) and the Supreme Leader (after 1979 revolution). Ahmad Shah adopted "Salute of Sublime State of Persia" (نشریهٔ عصر جدید، شمارهٔ ۸ (سال دوم)، طهران، شنبه ۲۱ ذیقعده ۱۳۳۳، صفحه‌های ۵ و ۶), Reza Shah adopted National anthem (ملاح، حسینعلی، سرود ملی و چگونگی ابداع آن، ماهنامهٔ هنر و مردم، فروردین ۱۳۵۳، شمارهٔ ۱۳۸), Ayatollah Khomeini adopted Payandeh Bada Iran (the source that I have already introduced) and Ayatollah Khamenei adopted current national anthem (this source). On the other hand, there is no act of Parliament or cabinet approval or act of council of the Islamic Revolution for national anthem. You can check this and this.

Iranian presidential election, 2017

Hi Pahlevun. Why you are insist on unimportant things always?! linking all candidates is better and makes page more beautiful. On the other hand, candidates like Saeed Yari, Khosro Nassirizadeh, Mohammad Zareh Foumani and others are really notable (not very, but to the extent). The medias are announce their candidacy in their news. Unknown candidates are said to the civilians. Ebrahim Raisi is known as Astan Quds Razavi chairman is every where. Why we call "former attorney-general" in wikipedia?! With which Wikipedia laws you said that must the "national office" mentioned? Although, Astan Quds chairman is a semi-national office as he appoints by the Supreme Leader, a national head and has governmental budget and is very strategic. I think you edit with personal preferences, not wikipedia laws. GTVM92 (talk) 14:10, 14 April 2017 (UTC)

User:GTVM92: "more beautiful"? That's not the way Wikipedia works. None of them meet Wikipedia:Notability criteria and according to WP:Red, they should not be linked unless there is an article. Astan Quds is a non-governmental organization and when the section reads "National officeholder", the office mentioned should be as such. Last but not the least, stop removing reference request template, this is your last warning because you already know about WP:VER and have been blocked for persistent addition of unsourced content multiple times. Add reliable sources or don't touch the template. Pahlevun (talk) 14:39, 14 April 2017 (UTC)
Why don't you provide a source? Pahlevun (talk) 14:43, 14 April 2017 (UTC)
Hashemitaba is run independent and is better to add him as independent to the article, like we do at Iranian presidential election, 1980 for Ahmad Madani. At that article, you said Madani was run independent unless was a member of national front. Why do different at this article?! GTVM92 (talk) 09:49, 21 April 2017 (UTC)
@GTVM92: You do have a real double standard here, don't you? You consider Eshaq Jahangiri as the Executives of Construction Party candidate and Mostafa Hashemitaba independent, while both are members and none of them are party candidates. Pahlevun (talk) 09:54, 21 April 2017 (UTC)
Jahnagiri is a member of central council of Executives of Construction Party and his candidacy is supported by the party along with Rouhani, but Hashemitaba's candidacy is not recommendated and supported by the party. GTVM92 (talk) 10:06, 21 April 2017 (UTC)
@GTVM92: And Hashemitaba is a co-founder of the party, which has not publicly backed any candidate yet. I am going to file a report on your recent fabrications if you don't reconsider your approach. Pahlevun (talk) 10:09, 21 April 2017 (UTC)
Hi Pahlevun. Can you help me in extension of Hassan Rouhani presidential campaign, 2017, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf presidential campaign, 2017 and Ebrahim Raisi pages? GTVM92 (talk) 13:10, 24 April 2017 (UTC)

Hashemitaba

Hi Pahlevun. In addition to the tasnim article, here is another source to provice Hashemitaba is independent. He said in this interview that "he was not member of a party anytime" and "just he helped for the ECP establishment". GTVM92 (talk) 12:45, 4 May 2017 (UTC)

Tasnim does not indicate that he is not a member anymore, it says he is not active anymore, which obviously differs from being independent. Plus, Tasnim is not a reliable source for this matter. I think you can read the source ou have linked above (which is not reliable too):

من هیچ وقت عضو حزبی نبودم اما بنا بر دلیلی که گفتم همراه با تعداد دیگری از وزراء عضو حزب کارگزاران شدم

—Pahlevun (talk) 13:07, 4 May 2017 (UTC)

این اختلاف ها باعث شد دیگر من در حزب حضور پیدا نکنم. When someone not participate in a party and his name is not between party's member, it's better to add him as independent for this election. All medias knows him independent, instead of a party member. GTVM92 (talk) 13:21, 4 May 2017 (UTC)
This is the same as being inactive mentioned above, it does not prove that he is not affiliated anymore. In the most recent congress held by the party a few months ago, he was present. Rafsanjani was not active in CCA after 2009 as well, but he was still a member until his death. Pahlevun (talk) 14:05, 4 May 2017 (UTC)
When he is inactive in the party, this is meaning that he dos not belong to this party at the election, similar to Rouhani who is also member of Combatant Clergy Association but he not belong to this party at the 2013 and 2017 elections. I think this is better to introduct Hashemitaba as independent candidate. Nowhere we don't see two candidates from same party at an election! GTVM92 (talk) 15:14, 4 May 2017 (UTC)
Rouhani is still a member of CCA and was listed in 2016. It seems that you have mistaken Iran with other countries. Note that "Party structures are not strong in Iran, so multiple candidates can run from each party or coalition as long as the guardian council endorses it". JAMNA has already two candidates in this very election, and this has been long precedenced in Iran, e.g. presidential elections in 1980s when several IRP candidates were competeing eachother. Both Hashemitaba and Jahangiri run non-partisan. ECP has not endorsed any candidate yet and it is unlikely that they will support any of these two. Pahlevun (talk) 15:29, 4 May 2017 (UTC)
Pahlevun, what is your reason for removing inactive from Hashemitaba's inbox when he said I'm not participate at the party anymore and another source that he has exit from party since ten years ago?! GTVM92 (talk) 20:26, 4 May 2017 (UTC)
Above, I provided a source indicating that he was present and was appreciated in the party congress held in 2017. Show me one single FA that has such thing in the infobox. Pahlevun (talk) 08:35, 5 May 2017 (UTC)
آقا هرکی تو کنگره یه حزب باشه یعنی عضو اون حزبه؟! همین چند وقت پیش عارف تو کنگره حزب مردمسالاری سخنرانی کرد ولی همه میدونیم که عضو این حزب نیست. یا محسن رضایی تو کنگره حزب موتلفه بوده ولی عضو این حزب نیست ابدا! همه جا داریم میبینیم که به هاشمی طبا میگن کاندید مستقل انتخابات و با غرضی مقایسش میکنن. تو شورای مرکزی حزب کارگزارانم که نیست اسمش. یه عضو موسس وقتی اسمش تو شورای مرکزی و هیچ جای حزب نیست معنیش چیه؟! غیر از اینکه دیگه تو اون حزب عضو نیست. هیچ کدوم از دور و وریاش یا اعضای ستادشم کارگزارانی نیستن. GTVM92 (talk) 09:49, 5 May 2017 (UTC)
The problem is that you want to prefer your own speculations and interpretations over reliable sources. From the begining, you just liked it and never provided a reference that he is not a member of ECP. And you are struggling to do justify your double standards.

The same unreliable source you provided from Tasnim, says جهانگیری هم مانند هاشمی‌طبا از اعضای حزب کارگزاران سازندگی و عضو شورای مرکزی فعلی این حزب است. It also states that Ghalibaf is not officially member of any party. Why don't you advocate for him being independent? Yes, because you just don't like it. Just like the way you just don't like the article to be empty. Pahlevun (talk) 10:07, 5 May 2017 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Mostafa Hashemitaba, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Cameo.

This is your own conclusion. It is also cited by the Atlantic Council author. I attributed it to the source. Pahlevun (talk) 09:09, 15 May 2017 (UTC)
Atlantic council is using the same source. Also, in irdiplomacy there is a comment there that challenges this claim. Nochyyy (talk) 09:53, 15 May 2017 (UTC)

Minor Edits

Information icon Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. --Detente 1 (talk) 21:07, 30 May 2017 (UTC)

May 2017

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Reza Pahlavi, Crown Prince of Iran. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
  2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Ad Orientem (talk) 20:05, 30 May 2017 (UTC)

@Ad Orientem: I suppose this is not a content dispute and my edits were reversion of vandalism. I really do think the user removing well-sourced content is WP:SPU and I can guess who he/she is (Notice that the user's very first edit was on 15 May 2017, and while being aware of Wikipedia norms with such a limited edit count and activity it is promoting a cause). Plus, I really can't expect someone who says "Don't readded your entry" to collaborate. However, in order be clear about what I did and to show that I'm committed to work within the scope of policies, I will use the article's talk page. Pahlevun (talk) 12:25, 31 May 2017 (UTC)

Parliamentary leaders of Iranian Principlists

Hi pahlevun. I want to talk with you about recent edit. I think Jalali and Haji Babaee only are the chairmans of principlist fractions but haven't the leadership of principlists at Majlis. Larijani is considered as the leader of the Principlists. Benyamin-ln (talk) 18:00, 24 July 2017 (UTC)

Hi. Isn't Parliamentary leader = chairmans of principlist fractions? Pahlevun (talk) 18:33, 24 July 2017 (UTC)
Yeah, but what is the position of Larijani? Benyamin-ln (talk) 19:10, 24 July 2017 (UTC)
Speaker of the Parliament? Pahlevun (talk) 19:23, 24 July 2017 (UTC)
Yes. and leader of principlist MPs. Isn't? Benyamin-ln (talk) 19:34, 24 July 2017 (UTC)
What do you suggest? Principlist MPs are scattered in two fractions that are not aligned with each other (and some MPs are affiliated with both fractions are at the same time). Many of them do not consider him their leader, such as Paydari members. Pahlevun (talk) 19:45, 24 July 2017 (UTC)
Paydari members only is 24. Larijani was the candidate of principlists in the election of speaker of parliament at first and second term of 10th Majlis.
Can we notice 3 parliamentary leader? Benyamin-ln (talk) 20:02, 24 July 2017 (UTC)
Jalali is himself a protégé of Larijani and I've never seen any source that considers them two leaders parallel to each other, moreover Larijani is no longer chairing any fractions. Wilayat fraction which he chaired is dissolved and no longer exists [4]. Pahlevun (talk) 20:29, 24 July 2017 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Persian famine of 1917–1919, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Toman (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

List of political parties in Iran

About your complete deletion of the previous article :

- you deleted every information to replace them with charts - the quality of the article has greatly diminished as a consequence. - this article was created 10 years ago and I was among the founders of this article that saw hundreds of people contributing to it. To erase all information as you did is not acceptable. - a lot of information you added are wrong. For instance  : (i) National Council of Iran is not a monarchist organization : prove your saying with an article coming from their official website. (ii) Tudeh Party of Iran is absolutely not a Stalinist Party - only the Labour Party of Iran can be described this way as their website clearly writes it. (iii) The Fadaian - Majority has not "post-communism" ideology. Their leaders have clearly stated they are democratic socialist. (iv) Mojahedin are absolutely not marxist : they have clearly stated they are in favor of free market. Their website is clear : they are not marxist. In partical terms, they are even on the right side of the political chessboard. (v) In your article, the Democrat Party of Iranian Kurdistan is a "successionist" party, which means nothing... (vi) you removed a lot of parties that does exist (small though) and the Wikipedia readers have a right to know them. etc... — Preceding unsigned comment added by WikipediaIRAN (talk • contribs) 14:24, 5 November 2017 (UTC)

@WikipediaIRAN: First of all, Wikipedia is edited collaboratively and being "among the founders of this article... 10 years ago" does not mean you own it or you are any different from other users, including me. Putting this aside, about the "quality" issue, consider Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not. Wikipedia is not a directory, nor "Iranian Yellowpage" to include every "party" run out of a basement by three people with a website. WP:CSC prohibits listing such entries. Pahlevun (talk) 19:35, 5 November 2017 (UTC)

List of political parties in Iran

Pahlevun you changed the whole article on aug 25th as you wished and deleted every information people managed to gather for the past 10 years. Moreover, the information you wrote were wrong or deceitful such as telling that the Tudeh Party of Iran is "Stalinist" or oddly writing that the Democratic Party of Iranian Kurdistan is "successionist" (you maybe wanted to write secessionist?).

I already wrote to you why his edits are not acceptable and instead of a proper answer you reverted back to your deceitful edits that deleted the original article.

You wrote to Wikipedia admins that you judge that some parties contained in the article deserve not to be mentioned (they are "paper" parties) that is why you deleted them ! Who gave you the credentials to judge which parties are "paper" parties and which ones are not ?

I gave you every reason to make you understand your Aug25th edit is not acceptable :

About your complete deletion of the previous article : - you deleted every information to replace them with charts - the quality of the article has greatly diminished as a consequence. - this article was created 10 years ago and I was among the founders of this article that saw hundreds of people contributing to it.

@WikipediaIRAN: I have already answered you above and you are omitting it. For content disputes, use the article's talpage. I'm not going to tolerate personal attacks like "deceitful edits" again, so stop it. Pahlevun (talk) 20:17, 8 November 2017 (UTC)
@Pahlevun: You did absolutely not answer to questions about describing a party "stalinist" or writing "successionist" or wrongly describing National Council of Iran as a monarchist organization or again telling that Mojahedin is Marxist whereas the latter refuted this claim numerous times. You do not tolerate "personal" attack but calling legitimate parties as "paper" parties is not an attack ? An attack to them but also an attack to free information ? I asked you what are the basis of your judgement as to why a party deserve to be mentioned in Wikipedia. This time again you did not answer but you managed to delete them in the article. What you are doing is to delete free information and propagate wrong ones as stated above, so stop it. WikipediaIRAN (talk)
@WikipediaIRAN: As I said, content disputes do not belong in my talkpage. Write in the proper place until everyone can answer as I do. You are refusing to deal with WP:CSC: "List of Norwegian musicians would not be encyclopedically useful if it indiscriminately included every garage band mentioned in a local Norwegian newspaper". If these "legitimate parties" fail to meet Wikipedia:Notability criteria to have an article (i.e. paper parties), then they do not belong to the list. Pahlevun (talk) 22:15, 8 November 2017 (UTC)
@Pahlevun:Indeed if there was a page for every one of these parties, we could have said said these parties fail to meet the criteria. However they are only mentionned in this article talking about ALL political parties. Moreover, you cannot compare ONE musician with a Party that have many collaborators. Before deleting them, you must prove they fail to mee "Wikipedia:Notability criteria". I moved our discussions to the List of Politcal Parties Talk Page
@WikipediaIRAN: Here in Wikipedia, "ALL political parties" means all notable political parties, per WP:CSC. Is this an argument from ignorance? You are the one to prove because burden to demonstrate lies with the editor who adds or restores material. Pahlevun (talk) 22:44, 8 November 2017 (UTC)
@Pahlevun: Burden is for the one who deletes information. You have to explain why you decided to delete these parties. Not only you delete political parties, and then you ask me to explain why you were wrong to delete it ? Are you serious ?
No, it's not. And Wikipedia is not a directory, deal with it. Pahlevun (talk) 14:33, 9 November 2017 (UTC)

Stop icon

Your recent editing history at Operation Zafar 7 and Joint Operation Arvand shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. Sir Sputnik (talk) 19:10, 10 November 2017 (UTC)

@Sir Sputnik: Have you checked the talkpages of these two articles? How could I build a consensus? Pahlevun (talk) 19:18, 10 November 2017 (UTC)
Continue the discussion. Try to find common ground. If that proves difficult, consider formal dispute resolution, or getting a third opinion. Most importantly, do not continue reverting while the discussion is ongoing. Sir Sputnik (talk) 19:48, 10 November 2017 (UTC)
I have not edited any of these articles in the last two days. Pahlevun (talk) 19:53, 10 November 2017 (UTC)

Censorship and vandalism

Hi, Please don't use repetitive inline templates as a tool to vandalize articles (Tavaana: E-Learning Institute for Iranian Civil Society). Also about the historic background of different things whether the historic background is an imaginary false mythical subject or not the background is reliable because the name of that historic thing is the best evidence. The official websites of a famous mosque is reliable and is not original research. Using primary sources is recommended but we must not make new original researches based on any source whether secondary or primary (Great Mosque of Kufa (serpent door)). --IsNotNationalist (Welcome) 11:56, 29 November 2017 (UTC)

I add a NOTE : If you don't follow any one of wikipedia rules, laws and policies and no one stops you (trolling or ...)

Speedy deletion nomination of 2nd of Khordad Front (disambiguation)

A tag has been placed on 2nd of Khordad Front (disambiguation) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G6 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an orphaned disambiguation page which either

  • disambiguates only one extant Wikipedia page and whose title ends in "(disambiguation)" (i.e., there is a primary topic); or
  • disambiguates no (zero) extant Wikipedia pages, regardless of its title.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time. Please see the disambiguation page guidelines for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. feminist (talk) 09:00, 26 January 2018 (UTC)

Doug Weller talk 12:08, 1 June 2018 (UTC)

About the alert above

You've been told that your sources at Controversies surrounding President Mohammad Khatami are unacceptable. WorldNetDaily is useless as a source for virtually anything other than its own article and should never be used in BLPs. Your FreeRepublic link was to a copyright violation and NewsMax shouldn't be used for BLPs either. Restoring them would not only be a violation of our BLP policy but also of the discretionary sanctions applicable to BLP articles and could lead to a block or topic ban. Doug Weller talk 12:17, 1 June 2018 (UTC)

@Doug Weller: You blindly removed the two sources and let Kayhan be (a source even less reliable than those two) while the stories Kayhan wrote were based on WorldNetDaily and NewsMax. Furthermore, that removal makes the other phrases meaningless (e.g. "In 2009, Kayhan claimed that Khatami was invited to attend the meeting in 2006 again." Which meeting?). Writing about conspiracy theories involving national leaders is not a violation of BLP when they are covered in multiple reliable sources. Let me make the problem clear: WorldNetDaily and NewsMax write something, Kayhan develops the notion and it is covered in mainstream sources. Does that sound to you a BLP violation? Pahlevun (talk) 18:20, 2 June 2018 (UTC)
I was only concerned with your edits, I'm not interested in the article itself, although I presume that something was deleted or added carelessly. As was User:Aquillion who reverted you first for the same reason. At that point you should have gone to the talk page, not just reinstated it. If you can find reliable sources covering this, fine, but you didn't. Doug Weller talk 18:28, 2 June 2018 (UTC)
This is not right to accuse me of BLP violation without carefully examining what is going on. Pahlevun (talk) 18:36, 2 June 2018 (UTC)
If you violate BLP you violate BLP, not matter what else is going on. You say it's covered in mainstream sources, use them. Doug Weller talk 09:50, 3 June 2018 (UTC)

@Doug Weller: Pahlevun has a long history of disruptive WP:ADVOCACY and BLP Violations editing in Iran-related issues. For instance, he created the Wet Gunpowder Award page, a symbolic “award” presented by the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps designed to smear any political figures that criticize the Iranian regime. There are numerous other edits that I'll compile to report this user. 122.155.9.26 (talk) 08:01, 3 June 2018 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Agha Mohammad Khan Qajar, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Khan (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Disruptive editing

Hello Pahlevun

You don't need a source for the obvious, do I have to find a source that states that the Sasanian monarchs used the title of Shahanshah as well? Heck, a simple Google search will show you more than enough--here, for example [5]. --HistoryofIran (talk) 18:18, 11 June 2018 (UTC)

@HistoryofIran:. "Revival of the title Shahnshah" under Safavid dynasty does not mean every Safavid ruler used the title. I hope you can understand the difference. Pahlevun (talk) 18:20, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
Aight, so I guess we have to find a source for every SINGLE Sasanian/Safavid/Afsharid/Qajar/Pahlavi ruler using the title of Shahanshah? Hmm, no? Stop trolling. --HistoryofIran (talk) 18:22, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
@HistoryofIran: Yes you certainly do, unless you have at least one reliable source explicitly stating that ALL rulers of that certain dynasty used the title. Remember that "Even if you're sure something is true, it must be verifiable before you can add it". And for your information, calling other editors "troll" is personal attack, and I'm sure you know what that means. Pahlevun (talk) 18:27, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
You've clearly misunderstood the meaning of citation. Go ahead, do the same to other rulers as well, such as the Russian czars etc, state that we need a source that states every Russian king during the empire used the title of czar, and then do the same to japanese, sasanian and chinese rulers etc, and we'll see who is right. Well, it may not be trolling, but it certainly isnt constructive actions.HistoryofIran (talk)
Well, I'm not interested to do that and I already know the slight difference between "Shah" and "Shahanshah". And remember that the burden to demonstrate verifiability lies with the editor who adds or restores material which is you, not me. So, instead of wasting time, search for something to prove that you are right. Pahlevun (talk) 18:34, 11 June 2018 (UTC)

IRGC dates

Also, I would really appreciate if you help me with dates at List of senior officers of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. Years of office are there, but adding precise dates is a bit tricky... --Sundostund (talk) 20:01, 10 June 2018 (UTC)

@Sundostund:. I think that is sort of impossible to have a neat and precise dating, because the IRGC did not have a solid command hierarchy and parallel organizations existed in the early days. Some of the commanders even acted simultaneously. The current dates inserted in the table seems wrong to me, for instance Mostafa Chamran did not officially head the IRGC, but since he was the defense minister during the period of chaos, the source mentions him as the de facto commander of the IRGC. Or Fereydoun Kian likely had a mandate under Rafsanjani or Lahouti (who were both clerics), the source mentions only that he was in charge a short period of time in late 1979 (no date given). I suggest using the time a more conservative way like this unless there is a reliable source compiling the precise dates. Pahlevun (talk) 20:06, 11 June 2018 (UTC)

Query

Dear Pahlevun, I see you have put a 'clean-up' banner ("specific problem:copyedit") on the page of Mohammad Ali Keshavarz Sadr. Could you suggest any improvements? I am new to Wikipedia but quick (and happy) to learn! --Charles Barrow (talk) 23:27, 3 August 2018 (UTC)

Hi Charles, Wikipedia is also happy to have such a contributor with this attitude :) There are two references that lack page number, and a couple of sentences lack sourcing. Pahlevun (talk) 16:09, 4 August 2018 (UTC)

Mousa Refan

Hi, please don't reinsert the claim that Mousa Refan was a commander of the IRCG. I can see reliable sources naming an "Akbar Rafan" and others naming a "Musa Refan", but I see no evidence that the engineer Mousa Refan is the same as the commander, and his biography (linked on our article) doesn't mention this at all. Unless you have a reliable source undeniably linking the commander to the subject of the article, you shouldn't readd it per WP:BLP and WP:V. Fram (talk) 06:51, 20 August 2018 (UTC)

Hi @Fram: Mousa Refan and Akbar Refan are the same person. Mousa is the birth name, and Akbar is his nom de guerre. As long as you refer to Wikipedia stub articles that lack mentioning everything, you may get confused. However, even with investigating the article, one can still verify that Mousa Refan was the IRGC air force commander, because the source number four mentions this. Aditionally, this document from a United States district court (p. 383), states:

MAPNA International FZE is a UAE-based subsidiary. One of its directors, Mousa Refan, previously served as the first commander of the Air Force of the “Army of the Guardians of the Islamic Revolution [IRGC].”

I hope that will suffice for you to prove that. Pahlevun (talk) 17:00, 20 August 2018 (UTC)

No, it doesn't. Source 4 and 5 in your version of the article do not make the claim that Mousa Refan, the engineer, is the same as Musa or Akbar Rafan, the commander. All you have is a document from a US court case where people make this claim to strengthen their case about a conspiracy, but WP:BLPPRIMARY is very clear about this: "Do not use trial transcripts and other court records, or other public documents, to support assertions about a living person." (emphasis in original). I will bring this to the BLP noticeboard, I'll drop a link once I have started the discussion. Please do not reinsert this claim in any article until the discussion at the noticeboard has been settled, per WP:BLP. Fram (talk) 06:41, 21 August 2018 (UTC)

See Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons/Noticeboard#Mousa Refan, where we can continue the discussion. Fram (talk) 06:51, 21 August 2018 (UTC)

Princess Noor Pahlavi

Princess Noor Pahlavi is referred to by her common name, as referenced in the sources. I recognize that it is not legally recognized in Iran, but WP:Common Name trumps legalities (for example Lady Diana Cooper is not actually "Lady Diana Cooper" but "Viscountess Norwich", but is referred to by her Common Name.) I have addressed this multiple times when reverting your edits and removing sources is not how to argue your view. If you do so again, I will ask for assistance from an administrator regarding WP:Edit War behavior. If you have a disagreement, take it to the article's talk page. Thank you. -- Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 15:44, 4 September 2018 (UTC)

@Willthacheerleader18: For your information, WP:Common Name is about article titles, and thus is not applicable here about name mention in the lead. Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Biography#Lead section clarifies that titles are only used if there is any. She was born 13 years after her father was abdicated and the titles are used in pretence. She is probably not even an Iranian citizen (because her father is a dissident, and not able to enter any Iranian diplomatic mission to apply for her citizenship). Pahlavis are not the only dynasty to claim the Iranian former throne, Qajars, after more than nine decades of living in exile, still use titles in pretence. Pahlevun (talk) 16:10, 4 September 2018 (UTC)
I am well aware, and the Qajar articles refer to them in the lead with their titles in pretence. Similarly to how German nobles, who now have no legal titles, are still referred to in their articles with such. -- Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 16:16, 4 September 2018 (UTC)

Successions

Hello Pahlevun. I had improved tables of {{Cabinets of Iran}} from Rouhani's 2nd cabinet to Amouzegar's cabinet in two years ago.

  1. Can you help to find sources for cells of those tables which have missed values yet? For example in Rafsanjani's 2nd cabinet: tenures of Roghani Zanjani, Mirzadeh, and M. Rafsanjani are missed.
  2. Also for FM Deputies' successions. For example: K. Kharazi's successor.
  3. Also for Ghotbzadeh's tenure in IRIB.
  4. Also for Agha-Mohammadi's predecessor.

Thanks. Benyamin-ln (talk) 23:29, 31 October 2019 (UTC)


Hi Benyamin-ln. About Sadegh Ghotbzadeh, it seems that he was appointed as the head of National Radio and Television on the evening of 22 Bahman 1357. Also, we know that the date for his letter of appointment as the FM is 8 Azar 1358. So, I think that's it. Agha-Mohammadi's predecessor as the deputy director-general of the IRIB was Abdolreza Rahmani Fazli (appointed in 1996) and before him, Ahmad Pournejati held the office. Finding the dates for those other people is a little bit tricky and I assume that it is unlikely to find them in MashroohMozakerat, because there was no vote of confidence for them. In case I found any further information, I will share it with you. Pahlevun (talk) 09:06, 1 November 2019 (UTC)

Edit summaries

Pahlevun, you need to be a lot better about leaving descriptive edit summaries. Most of your last fifty edits don't have any edit summaries at all. This is especially true when editing contentious topics; edits like this, without an edit summary, are absolutely unacceptable. Your edit might well be justified, but you've given us no basis to judge this; and that in itself could be grounds for a topic ban. Please leave better explanations for your edits in the future. Vanamonde (Talk) 08:23, 4 December 2019 (UTC)

@Vanamonde93: Hi. I don't know what have brought my edits under your radar, nor why I should receive such a message while I'm just contributing to build an encyclopedia (but you've given us no basis to judge this. Which us? why should I be judged?). I felt consternated by reading your message (topic ban?!) and I think that your judgement is unfair. Since the edit you have linked above (dated 31 October 2019), I have left summaries anywhere I felt it is necessary (examples: [6][7][8]) and I did not think that reverting obvious vandalism by an IP (Special:Contributions/2A02:C7D:4E94:6C00:7411:8C5F:BBEA:B421, including the one that you linked) without an edit summary would lead to a message like yours. On the same exact day, I have created new stub-articles (1, 2, 3, 4) in order to get rid of longtime red links, yet the highlight of the day was that particular edit? Every editor, including me, may make mistakes, but I don't really get being called out for an edit that I made two months ago. I just don't deserve this. Pahlevun (talk) 19:55, 4 December 2019 (UTC)
Pahlevun, I mentioned a topic ban because you've been warned about your behavior on Iranian politcs articles before (by me) and you've also been notified about the general sanctions in effect there. In that topic, good communication is a necessity; moreover, it is a good rule of thumb that every substantive edit in mainspace should have an edit summary. This isn't a policy; it's just a basic part of editing in a collaborative environment. If you acknowledge that the absence of an edit summary was a mistake, then there's nothing more to discuss; but the extremely defensive nature of your response suggests you don't really see anything wrong with what you are doing. There's plenty of other edits (this one, for instance) where an edit summary was absolutely necessary; that's a major reorganization, without any explanation; and that's from two days ago. So please, just take the warning in the spirit it is intended, and use edit-summaries more often. Vanamonde (Talk) 16:11, 5 December 2019 (UTC)
@Vanamonde93: Warning a user who is not currently involved in any content dispute (opening with a pretty judgemental phrase like "you need to be a lot better"), and is trying to change old habits seemed like coming down like a ton of bricks to me, I am no mind-reader and you did not mention your past message (that was almost a year ago). On the other hand, I am trying to mind my own business, tending to refrain from editing controversial articles, especially the one under consensus-required restriction. Bear with me getting better in writing edit summaries, I'm acting in good faith. Pahlevun (talk) 19:59, 5 December 2019 (UTC)
If I thought you were acting in bad faith, Pahlevun, I wouldn't bother having a conversation with you. In June this year you told El C you'd try to do better with edit summaries; but all the diffs I've supplied are more recent than that, meaning another reminder was probably necessary. If you're trying to do better, then keep trying, please. Vanamonde (Talk) 06:19, 6 December 2019 (UTC)

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Kia-football-academy-2015.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:Kia-football-academy-2015.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion.

Masoud Shojaei

Hi there, from Portugal,

only option i could think of to assist in this, and i think it will turn out to be a very good one. Can you please lend a hand in this player's article? I tried reading the source (#33 in the subject's article), but know no Persian language at all, so that did not do any good :( The edit of 10 December left sentences in appalling English that read "...current apparently assistant but in fact head coach of Tractor." (intro) and "....become apparently elected as an assistant Ahad Sheykhlari but in practice as head coach of Tractor." (storyline, even more confusing); furthermore, i was not able to find a full date, and i think i copy/pasted the article's title wrongly because the type of characters found there did not allow me to do it correctly.

In light of all that, can you please tell me so that i can write it in article (and you don't have to bother) what is Mr. Shojaei's current job at Tractor? Player, player-coach, manager-to-be? As of December 2019 (per SOCCERWAY.com), still playing matches.

Continue the good work, thank you very much in advance --Quite A Character (talk) 00:03, 17 December 2019 (UTC)

Sepahbod vs Lieutenant general

IRGC does not have anyone with that rank that is alive and will never have one either. It is a symbolic rank within the IRGC. When people clicks on the the rank one should not be redirected to main article about the rank of Lieutenant general, instead one should be redirected to the page where one can read about the historic rank of Sepahbod in ancient Iranian armies. That is why i changed the from Lieutenant general to Sepahbod. Yes Iranian army on the other hand do have the rank Lieutenant general and it is not symbolic rank, which is similar to other armies with the same rank. Gosale (talk) 07:11, 2 February 2020 (UTC)

According to Islamic Republic of Iran Armed Forces' rules, persons who became Shahid, they will promoted to a higher rank. Thus, Soleimani same as Mohammad-Vali Gharani and Ali Sayad Shirazi had a posthumous promotion from the Major general to the Lieutenant general: "Sepahbod-e Pāsdar". Benyamin (talk) 16:31, 2 February 2020 (UTC)
Posthumous promotions are almost always symbolic, but the fact is that these rank does exist in the IRGC. Benyamin is right. Pahlevun (talk) 19:21, 2 February 2020 (UTC)

Non-free rationale for File:Coalition Council of Islamic Revolution Forces.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Coalition Council of Islamic Revolution Forces.jpg.

Camps, Parties, or Electoral alliances?

Hello Pahlevun. You made 2 alliances from Principlists and Reformists in 2020 election's infobox, But previous election's infobox is based on Electoral lists. Principlists and Reformists are political camps, not Electoral alliances of the specific election. Is there any consensus between users that which form should be used in articles and why? I'm looking for a stable form to use in Fawiki articles. Benyamin (talk) 20:38, 5 March 2020 (UTC)

Hi. I think that would depend on the stance of the contesting groups in each election. In 2016, both reformists and conservatives fielded candidates under one single coalition, along with the list of Ali Motahari (and the Anoushiravan Ehteshami's work cited allocates the seats as such). The Persian article for that election seems like pure OR to me. Sources on elections before 2012 tend to categorize the candidates in these two camps, although different lists did exist. What would you suggest for 2020? I think we can wait a little bit more for the second round and see how the sources categorize the contesting groups. Pahlevun (talk) 20:48, 5 March 2020 (UTC)
At 2008, UFP was backed the government but PPC was not. PPC leaders came from Harmony and Efficiency fraction, while pro-Ahmadinejad deputies formed Islamic Revolution fraction. I think they should mention separately. However I disagree with original research.
For 2020, It's complicated now. Stability Front only in Tehran had an alliance with SHANA. (SHANA will introduced Ghalibaf for Speaker's seat, but probably Stability Front does not accept. Similar to Haddad vs. Larijani rival at 2008.) Also Friends of Hashemi introduced their candidates nationwide, but Coalition of eight groups introduced just in Tehran. Yes, we can wait more. Benyamin (talk) 21:34, 5 March 2020 (UTC)
That's right, Iranian political factions have always been unclear. I will look for sources for 2020 to find out how they have categorized the results. Pahlevun (talk) 08:24, 6 March 2020 (UTC)

Edit summaries aren't difficult, yet despite warnings you rarely use them

Resolved

@Vanamonde93 and El C:, how much rope should this editor be given? Doug Weller talk 15:58, 7 March 2020 (UTC)

Perhaps we give them a choice between choosing to always have them (in the preferences), or be indefinitely blocked...? El_C 16:08, 7 March 2020 (UTC)
Hi. Would you be kind enough to show me the way I can put summaries in the preferences? Pahlevun (talk) 16:38, 7 March 2020 (UTC)
"Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" on the Editing tab of your user preferences. El_C 16:56, 7 March 2020 (UTC)
Done. I would have done it in the first place if I ever knew there is something like that. Pahlevun (talk) 17:08, 7 March 2020 (UTC)

Question

Hi, in edit did you intent to add back the "Senior US official" content that I removed? Or it was an edit conflict.--SharʿabSalam▼ (talk) 17:25, 10 March 2020 (UTC)

Hi, that was a conflict for sure, because I had myself removed the problematic content about Mohamad Ahwaze before. Pahlevun (talk) 17:33, 10 March 2020 (UTC)

You are active

Hey Pahlevun, I see that you are active again but have quited editing MEK page. Your insights would be useful to the developments of the article specially since you have authored some parts of the page. --Mhhossein talk 04:24, 10 March 2020 (UTC)

Hi Mhhossein. That's right, years ago when I first started to edit that article, it was a mess and I tried to help it improve. But after a while, I felt an unusual presence. It's more than apparent, a network of people with a certain record is capable to scuttle contribution to a project with a community of volunteers (what I actually like about Wikipedia). Thanks for the compliment, but for the moment I am not in the mood. Pahlevun (talk) 16:51, 10 March 2020 (UTC)
You're welcome and I hope you get the mood very soon. The developments of the page and the related pages are speaking for themselves. --Mhhossein talk 18:50, 10 March 2020 (UTC)

Unexplained page move

Would you explain why you moved the page Ali-Gholi Ardalan to a different name? There was no explanation accompanying this move. ~Anachronist (talk) 18:33, 22 March 2020 (UTC)

Hi. I was looking at a book for another article and I saw the name with that certain spelling. Pahlevun (talk) 18:36, 22 March 2020 (UTC)
OK. One name is as good as another I guess. One can't really tell from the non-English sources cited. ~Anachronist (talk) 18:50, 22 March 2020 (UTC)
By the way, the source is: Sepehr Zabir (2012). The Iranian Military in Revolution and War (RLE Iran D). CRC Press. pp. 52–53. ISBN 978-1-136-81270-5.. Pahlevun (talk) 18:52, 22 March 2020 (UTC)

Questionable Source used for Foundation for Defense of Democracies

Hello. This is regarding your edit on Foundation_for_Defense_of_Democracies

One of your edits was modified. This is because the reference you provided to verify your phrase stating the page's subject, FDD, is a registered lobbying organization does not actually provide evidence of FDD registered as a registered lobbying organization. The provided article only claims this, and the article's own references to substantiate this claim are actually broken links..therefore this reference doesn't qualify for Wikipedia's guidelines, it is a questionable source. Additionally, other references available indicate FDD is a 501(c)(3) non profit policy group & think tank. This is not the same as a registered lobbying group. See Wikipedia guidelines for verifiable sources https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Verifiability#What_counts_as_a_reliable_source . — Preceding unsigned comment added by B400facts (talk • contribs)

I think you need to get yourself more familiar with Wikipedia:Verifiability, after all this is apparently your first day on Wikipedia and you have made less than ten edits. Having a dead link on the source is not a legit reason to call a source "questionable". The article has been written by expert journalists, was published by a news outlet (which qualifies as a reliable WP:NEWSORG), and it is reporting an event.
