Only 39.62.0.0/16 seems somewhat worth reporting, as SheryOfficial is still using this as recent as yesterday , 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)
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 , and recently, . HyperShark244 (talk) 15:13, 22 November 2024 (UTC)
HistoryofIran, is there any way to undo this page move: ? I tried undoing it twice but the title cannot be changed back to the original one. The page was moved by a sock of SheryOffical. HyperShark244 (talk) 12:58, 1 February 2025 (UTC)
Check out this Shafi'iman account, here. They took the "Barelvis aren't Shafi'i" thing to ANI . I would file a SPI, but I am busy in real life. Strangely, a CheckUser said that Shafi'iman is not on any of the ranges Shery uses . HyperShark244 (talk) 09:30, 1 March 2025 (UTC)
Hi HyperShark244. They admitted it and got blocked, so all good. They claim that they're leaving Wikipedia for real this time, but I have no doubt that they will reappear shortly. HistoryofIran (talk) 16:17, 1 March 2025 (UTC)

Subhan Ahmad KDR adds pashtoon langauge to irrelevant articles
Hell Dear :
I add my national languages Pashto and Dari to all those articles, which are related to my country history, geography and more.
If there is any mistake or Wikipedia's policies opposite, you can explain, and your legal advises would be accepted.
Thanks Subhan Ahmad KDR (talk) 14:25, 25 February 2025 (UTC)
I have noticed that you have changed the name of a Legend and warrior of Iran back to the Arabic form which it adds "Al-" in front of the name. This cannot be correct as Yaghoob was Persian and spoke In Parsi. Saffarid dynasties official langue was Parsi, therefore adding "Al-" to his name is disrespectful to his legacy and what he accomplished and died fighting for. He died fighting Arab invaders of Iran and for kepping Parsi language alive, how can "Al-" be added to his name?
He made Saffary Dynasty, Official Language: Parsi, then "Al-Saffar"?
The "Al-" should not be added to his name under any circumstances.
The whole article and his family and also his tomb's name on wikipedia should have "Al-" removed as they were not Arabs nor spoke Arabic.
Hi DrtheHistorian. Please see WP:COMMON NAME and WP:RIGHTGREATWRONGS. In other words, we simply follow how WP:RS commonly transliterate his name. Also having "al" (and its later variants "ol" and "od") was pretty common amongst Iranians of the past, up to the late Qajar era. HistoryofIran (talk) 01:19, 5 March 2025 (UTC)
Hello mate, hope all is well.
Transliterating a name in this case and some more, should be referred back to its origin. In this case the origin is Parsi language therefore his name should be as it is stated on the Persian sources, which has no "Al-" or "ibn" in it.
The Transliterating should not be made from the Arabic to english, that is false way of doing it in this case as the person who is being referred to was a native Persian and a one of the revivers of the Parsi language. It should only be made from its original source.
This historical name has to be Translated FROM Persian to Englishnot from Arabic, thats where the mistake lies.
kind of out of context here, This most commonly used name in english, why is there on Persian gulf page the newly false name of the body of water being used? The arguments are that it is referred to that in the arab countries.... If one rule is set for Yaghoobs page why isn't it enforced on that page? DrTheHistorian【Talk】16:46, 10 March 2025 (UTC)
Sorry, but I don't know what the argument is over there, I think you should take it to the article's talk page. It is not quite the same comparison; You replaced the name "Ya'qub ibn al-Layth al-Saffar" (the name of the article, and by far the most common name) with "Ya'qub Layth Saffar", without any WP:RS to support it. HistoryofIran (talk) 16:51, 10 March 2025 (UTC)
I understand that now mate. Did not touch it farther. Until I do some or lots of digging on the topic and see if I can write it according to the WP:RS or not.
They were already sent in the talk page, i have read the sources and i think that it doesnt make sense how they can gather that he is a Shi'a from them, I corrected his religion which is not Shi'ism but Sunni Islam. TheSalafi (talk) 14:10, 11 March 2025 (UTC)
If you read those policies I posted, you wouldn't have replied like this. Please read them. One of they things that is mentioned is that we follow WP:RS, not our own deductions/opinions. HistoryofIran (talk) 15:15, 11 March 2025 (UTC)
I have read them, I put the reliable sources only and biased ones and i have checked their reliability.
The sources i said/put explicitly (which are reliable by the way) say that Nader Shah was Sunni, If you dont agree with my claims can you specify which sources i stated was unreliable? TheSalafi (talk) 16:14, 21 March 2025 (UTC)
It has nothing to do with me agreeing or not, that's irrelevant - what matters is what WP:RS says, something you amongst other things attempted to remove in your previous edit. I'll try again; In the talk page of the article, please cite those sources of yours. Since you claim to have read the rules, I assume you know how to do that properly. HistoryofIran (talk) 16:42, 21 March 2025 (UTC)
Ill say this again.
The sources were pointed out in the talk page by another person already, i added only 1 or 2 of my own.
At least one is obviously not WP:RS, and at least another does not seem to be WP:RS, and at least one is clearly not by an expert on the topic nor does it even focus on it. Since you claim to know the policies, I'm sure you can point out which ones I am talking about. Anyways, here is what the experts say . That and the sources you tried to remove in the article. If you have further concerns, please use the talk page per WP:CONSENSUS and WP:ONUS and write it in line with the afromentioned policies. HistoryofIran (talk) 22:49, 21 March 2025 (UTC)
Nader Shah was not a Sunni, he was a Twelver Shia, but in order to end the two-century conflict with the Ottoman Sunni Empire, he agreed to introduce a form of Shia religion called Shia Jafari in honor of the sixth Shia Imam, Jafar Sadiq, into the Sunni religions that the Ottomans did not accept.

HistoryofIran,I'm sorry that I sent a message on your personal page, but it made the discussion too long and this production increases hypocrisy and disruption. Sasan Hero (talk) 17:24, 21 March 2025 (UTC)
You're welcome! I've filed so many SPIs lately, my energy has almost been drained lol anyways if Mindirman comes back I'll let you know. Kajmer05 (talk) 23:06, 12 March 2025 (UTC)
Yes, it can be very taxing (I don't even dare think how many hours I have used on filing SPIs), and that's why I highly appreciate you doing it, as I am sure others do too. HistoryofIran (talk) 23:09, 13 March 2025 (UTC)
noruz in a very bad shape
hello. can you correct nowruz? it has poor english and opinions-inserting. the last good readable version is . info box and short desecription parts are wrong data.can you contatct User:Viceskeeni2 User:Razgura User talk:Ronnnaldo7 to stop their bad edits thank you 89.43.100.16 (talk) 03:33, 14 March 2025 (UTC)
Hi Fylindfotberserk, that's a very good suggestion, but I wouldn't consider it. To put it bluntly, Afghan.Records was incredibly uncivil and dishonest/manipulative, whereas the IP doesn't really strike me as that. HistoryofIran (talk) 16:56, 14 March 2025 (UTC)
About chegini
Hello,
I’ve been making edits to my tribe’s Wikipedia page to improve its accuracy. While some of the sources and references may not be the strongest, much of the content I’ve added is directly translated from the Persian version of the article, supplemented with additional sourced information.
I’d appreciate any guidance on how to better structure my edits to align with Wikipedia’s standards. Could you provide feedback on what specifically needs improvement?
Thank you for your time. Redd ghefuri (talk) 21:55, 16 March 2025 (UTC)
Hi Redd ghefuri. I would first and foremost refrain from edit warring, I've already written about that in your talk page, yet you continued edit warring. We need to base added info on properly cited, academic sources. Please read WP:RS, WP:CITE, WP:VER and WP:OR for starters. HistoryofIran (talk) 23:17, 16 March 2025 (UTC)
Asking some questions
Hi, I was wondering, After you removed the sources in the page of "Babak Khorramdin Revolt", Does that mean my informations are wrong? And will you gonna restore back the other primary sources that I have added, And is there any wrong in the page, I am new Wikipedian and want to learn from my mistakes, Best. R3YBOl (talk) 19:42, 18 March 2025 (UTC)
Hi R3YBOl. It's a bit more complicated than to simply say it is wrong or right. After all, secondary sources rely on primary sources, though they're a more correct and neutral version of the latter. When it comes to history, we need to cite secondary sources by academic scholars, preferably by experts on the topic, as their word has more weight. The policies I linked in my edit summary are a good start if you want to learn about sources. HistoryofIran (talk) 20:05, 18 March 2025 (UTC)
If you want to write about Babak's revolt, I recall the Cambridge University published The Nativist Prophets of Early Islamic Iran: Rural Revolt and Local Zoroastrianism by early Islamic history expert Patricia Crone having a decent amount of info. If you write "pdf" in front of it, you should be easily able to get it for free. HistoryofIran (talk) 20:12, 18 March 2025 (UTC)
Hello, HistoryofIran,Thank you for your support pages about Iranian history, from damage or vandalism and your improvement of Wikipage of Iran; with "Best wishes". Sasan Hero (talk) 12:01, 19 March 2025 (UTC)
Thank you, my friend. I have some questions about the borders of the Sasanian Empire in 550, because this map is related to the era of Khosrow I and later. Where can I ask please? Sasan Hero (talk) 21:00, 19 March 2025 (UTC)
Sorry, I'm not sure I understand. Are you talking about a specific map showing Khosrow I's domain here in Wiki? If so, which one? HistoryofIran (talk) 21:42, 19 March 2025 (UTC)
File:Historical Atlas of Iran - Plate No. 08.jpg|thumb|نقشهٔ ساسانیان از کتاب اطلس تاریخی ایران، نشر دانشگاه تهران]]
This map from the historical atlas of Iran published by the University of Tehran shows that before the conquest of the Byzantine lands, Iran's borders were more in the east and southeast. Sasan Hero (talk) 21:54, 19 March 2025 (UTC)
My friend, I do not intend to say that this map is accurate, but in my opinion, maybe the eastern borders are less estimated in the current Sasanian map in Wikipedia , I don't know, I just wanted to express my opinion, you are a master, thank you Sasan Hero (talk) 22:19, 19 March 2025 (UTC)
Ah I see. Back when I was expanding Sasanian related articles, I don't recall seeing any WP:RS that supports the eastern borders being wider under Khosrow II (and I did recently take a quick and short look as well due to this , but didn't find anything about the eastern borders being wider), and we can't really compare his domain to Khosrow I's since it's two different periods. HistoryofIran (talk) 23:41, 19 March 2025 (UTC)
Ok, you are right, I expressed my personal opinion, and to be honest, the map you made is excellent and closer to reality, because the eastern borders were more or less at the same level during the Sassanid period, and I do not want to question the map that took so much effort, only the bold parts of the map, except for Yemen, were almost at this level during most of the Sassanid period, thank you Sasan Hero (talk) 00:24, 20 March 2025 (UTC)
Thank you if you can find reliable sources that show the eastern borders more, but still the current map is admirable, especially the coastal areas. Thank you and Happy Nowruz. Sasan Hero (talk) 14:55, 21 March 2025 (UTC)
Hi @HistoryofIran, I do remember you recommended a book about Babak Khorramdin Revolt, I wanted to read about it but before I wanted to do that, I was reading about the bio of the book which It says it just talks about the ideology of some irani History figures (Including babak of course) I mean would I find useful informations about babak for example his execution or some of his campaigns? I did some searches and I think I only read about Mohammed humaid al tusi campaign against babak, But I have already added his campaign in the Wikipedia page which ended as babak's victory and execution of Mohammed al tusi. If you still recommend for me the same book that you recommended before, then I will have to read it myself. Best wishes! R3YBOl (talk) 17:51, 22 March 2025 (UTC)
I will try to read about it in coming week or in my free time soon because I really want to expand the page. Talking about the page and sources , Why wouldn't I restore the sources you have removed and gonna write On them for example "Primary source says" or "Primary source claims" At least it will make the page look arranged. I would love to hear about your opinion. Huge Respect and regards. R3YBOl (talk) 20:58, 23 March 2025 (UTC)
well today I will look further for the book you recommended about babak's rebellion as much as the director of the book is I think british or american that already was against islam lol but I will see what's useful and decent, I would add it to babak khorramdin revolt's page. About the sources you removed, the texts of the campaigns should be deleted right? R3YBOl (talk) 08:37, 27 March 2025 (UTC)
Additionally, I found informations about some of babak's campaigns, for example the mohammed al tusi campaign that ended as babak's victory. Would this be accurate to cite in the page? I really like to know about your opinion about that also. best wishes R3YBOl (talk) 11:43, 27 March 2025 (UTC)
as much as the director of the book is I think british or american that already was against islam lol
Sorry what?
About the sources you removed, the texts of the campaigns should be deleted right?
Yes, unless there is WP:RS which repeats the same info, which I doubt.
Additionally, I found informations about some of babak's campaigns, for example the mohammed al tusi campaign that ended as babak's victory. Would this be accurate to cite in the page?
Yes, unless there is WP:RS which repeats the same info, which I doubt
Well the sources I have got are mostly primary sources (eg. al tabri, ibn al athir, So many other writers) that talked for example about the same event,same campaign, same battles. I will try my best to find reliable and secondary sources. But one last question and I really do apologize if I am distracting you, Is it fine to cite Sources of arabic scholars? Like ones who made analysis and confirmed things? I do apologize again for distracting you. My Regards R3YBOl (talk) 18:51, 27 March 2025 (UTC)
well if you remember, You removed that one source that talks about Ishaq's campaigns against babak, I found so many sources talked about the event. They are mostly historical books, Except two of them are primary others are not primary sources
15-https://shamela.ws/book/23708/3465#p4 ) These links take you directly to the paragraph part of ishaq ibn ibrahim campaign against babak which happened in 833. Among all these links and sources Only two of them are primary and other two of them are not reliable for example the first link that I provided is less reliable. Anyways I hope you get what I mean and if you see that the links and the amount information I provided about ishaq ibn ibrahim are reasonable to Cite them back in Babak Khorramdin Revolt page, I would like to hear out your permission. R3YBOl (talk) 23:46, 28 March 2025 (UTC)
Additionally in the book of the Nativist prophets of early islamic iran, By crone patricia,page 41
States The Khurramis of the Jibal rebelled for the fourth time in 218/833, the year in which al-Ma'mün died on the Byzantine frontier, once again striking at a time when the capital was denuded of caliphal troops. This time the whole of the Jibàl was involved, including Isfahàn, Hamadhan, Masabadhan, Mihrijangadhaq, and the two Mahs (Nihawand and Dinawar).*" According to Nizam al-Mulk the Khurramis of Fars also joined and, as on the previous occasion, the rebels were coordinating their activities with Babak (who had been in a state of revolt for some seventeen years by then). They killed tax collectors, plundered travellers, slaughtered Muslims, and took their children as slaves. In Fars they were defeated by the local forces, but at Isfahan, where they were led by one ‘Ali b. Mazdak, they captured Karaj, the centre of the local ruler Abü Dulaf al-Tjli, who was away with most of his troops at the time. Nizàm al-Mulk has them join forces with Babak on the border between the Jibal and Azerbaijan; the Tarikhnama says that Babak sent reinforcements to the Jibal, and al-Ya‘qabi knows them to have defeated the first army that al-Mu'tasim sent against them, led by Hashim b. Batijar.°* But when al-Mu'tasim sent the Tahirid Ishag b. Ibrahim b. Mus'ab against them from Baghdad the revolt was ruthlessly suppressed: 60,000 or 100,000 rebels are said to have been killed, and the rest, said to number 14,000, fled to Byzantium, where they were converted to Christianity and enrolled in the imperial army
Sorry, what is a "primary other"? The sources I removed were primary sources, and thus not WP:RS. And I'm not sure I understand the question in regards to Crone. HistoryofIran (talk) 10:05, 29 March 2025 (UTC)
"Primary and other" well in my first message I meant among of those 15 Links, only two of them are primary sources and two different ones are not highly reliable..And I'm not sure I understand the question in regards to Crone. you previously recommended Patricia Crone's book,The nativist prophets of early islamic iran, I found that it supports my point of about that one campaign you previously removed from Babak Khorramdin Revolt (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Babak_Khorramdin_Revolt&diff=prev&oldid=1282363739) sources because that they were not reliable, and I agree with you on that but What I am trying to say is that I found the same information in Patricia Crone's book of The nativist prophets of early islamic iran page:41, for the full information I already typed the whole battle with the year of it. I just wanted to know if it's totally reliable to add this as a citation and edit the battle since it had more deep informations. I wish you got my point. R3YBOl (talk) 13:00, 29 March 2025 (UTC)
14 out of 15 those links look like primary sources to me, I am in a bit of hurry so don't have time to check the remaining one right now. If Crone supports whatever you previously added, feel free to remove the CN tag and cite her (though I would be surprised if it's 100% the same as what you added. In other words, if there is a slight difference, please adjust that when you cite her). HistoryofIran (talk) 14:08, 29 March 2025 (UTC)
Hi. what's the purpose of "Good article" and removing my edits in Qutayba's page.? Is it because I used primary sources? They already mentioned he was born in basra I just added sources of al tabri and ibn al athir claiming him iraqi. R3YBOl (talk) 13:04, 26 March 2025 (UTC)
Dear historyofIran, first of all, I understand the article you drafted, but did you actually read the source? BEFOR01 (talk) 21:00, 26 March 2025 (UTC)
I have no intention of being mean or hostile towards you. Thank you for informing me about the messages, have a nice day sir. 👍🏻 BEFOR01 (talk) 13:22, 29 March 2025 (UTC)
Are you referring to this section ? I assume you're talking about the "See also" section? Up to you, it's pretty redundant, the articles are probably going to end up as redirects to the article. HistoryofIran (talk) 15:12, 1 April 2025 (UTC)
I am talking about the order of battle dear HistoryofIran
Only in chronological order should the battle in the southern region and the battle of Baghdad be switched, one took place in the 1820s or early 1821, the other in the middle or late 1821
Hi Kajmer05. It's deffo the first one. They have shown interest in that Russo-Turkish war article before . Combine that with their grammar and the similar Battle of Baideng disruption, and we got ourselves a match. HistoryofIran (talk) 18:15, 3 April 2025 (UTC)
I really appreciate the content work that you do here on the project. But it seems like you make appearances on ANI on a weekly basis. I know that you are a frequent target of other editors due to the subject area that you edit in but looking over some talk pages, I am also seeing you say provocative comments to editors whom you clearly don't have any respect for.
If you believe an editor is not competent, you can critique their work without calling them incompetent. Please focus on the content and do not make snide comments just for the sake of so-so editors being an easy target. I realize that editing articles about Middle East/Asian history can be a minefield but let's try to descalate conflict and try not to bait other editors, can we agree on that? And I'm saying this after reading several article/draft talk pages, I don't want to make this about a specific editor. And I do want to acknowledge that other editors play a big part in making some talk pages a hostile environment. Thank you. LizRead!Talk!02:15, 5 April 2025 (UTC)
Hello Liz. Thank you for taking your time to write this, but I have to challenge this; how am I baiting users / making snide/provocative comments? Because that is certainly not the intention. If you're referring to Eminİskandarli, I am showing annoyance in my replies, that's it. If I was truly aiming to bait them, I would not have given them so much WP:ROPE. I gave them several chances to stop insulting me, but as you can see, they insult as they please, "provoking" them is certainly not needed . A very good example is PayamAvarwand, who has attacked me countless times (and not only me), disrupted articles since winter, yet you keep giving them WP:ROPE and thus I did, but so far it has been futile. On that particular user months of WP:ROPE I have tried to give, explaining the rules of this site (which they several times openly said they don't care about), months of cleaning up and months of taking insults (such as ridiculing me for liking beer). That would not be something a user who you're describing would do.
Here you indicate that me and Eminİskandarli are "insulting each other" ("Wikipedia is not a forum where editors insult each other."), yet all I did was warn them for their persistent attacks ("Constantly attacking me isn’t going to help unless you’re aiming to get reported by me to WP:ANI. I’ll say it here as well: read WP:NPA and WP:BATTLEGROUND. WP:ASPERSIONS too."), which they then reply to with another another attack ("shut up"). That is not me provoking them nor insulting them, that is them showing why they're WP:NOTHERE. HistoryofIran (talk) 09:57, 5 April 2025 (UTC)
