Re: 300

I do understand considering there are Orcs and a Troll in the film (or so it seems), but apart from that, to write 'Negative' in the heading suggests a pov. NPOV is about discussing people's opinions, not taking them on as fact. WikiNew 21:42, 10 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed, which is why I kept that Greek review that gave it 0/10. But I like to keep my reviewers to the likes of Travers, Ebert, Roeper, Scott, Beradinelli, Corliss, Shickel, Variety, Hollywood Reporter et al. What remains the problem right now though, is the article is the list, and an undue weight to allegations of which the filmmakers know nothing (honestly, who can blame somebody who based it on a comic based on a film based on Herodotus based on a battle from Spartans who were racist etc). Makes me giggle. WikiNew 22:00, 10 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

بنیادگرایی

سلام.

من شرمنده ام که می خواهم درشت گویی کنم . شما ب حساب و ژاژ گویی بگذار. امیدوارم عصبانی نشی. به حساب درددل یک جوون بی سواد بگذار. در ضمن من قبل از اینکه زیراب مقاله را بزنم عرض کنم که این نقد من متوجه شما نیست و بیشتر مربوط به لکنت قوه نطق آدمای ایرانی می شه. که به قول سید جواد طباطبایی اگر اساتید دانشگاهش بروند آکسفورد ستون هایش می کرزه و فرو می ریزه. بالاخره ما که فعلا بخصوص در مقام روش شناسی علمی وضعمون خرابه پس تعریف واژه و چارچوب نظری و ... هم کشکه و بیخیال

باور کن چیدن مطالب کنار هم و جمع کردن نقل قول هایی که می شه راحت نقیضش را پیدا کرد یک مقاله خوب نمی سازه. این مقاله اشتباهات عجیبی داره. مثلا یک جایی می گه نواب نوبنیادگراست. خب لااقل شما باید یک جریان قوی بنیادگرایی قبل از نواب داشته باشی که واژه نو معنا بده . جالبه مدرسه حقانی هم که بهشتی و دیگران توش درس می دادند نوبنیادگراست. انصار هم نوبنیادگراست. خب پس کی بنیادگراست.

البته این تقصیر شما نیست ها. به قول سید جواد طباطبایی زوال اندیشه که توی یک جامعه ای چند سده رخ داده باشه وقتی می خواهند متفکرینش فکر کنند همین شکلی میشه. واژه هاشون را از آمریکایی ها قرض می گیرند و اشتباهی به کار می برند.

جالبه که در بخش سوم که مربوط به ظهور بنیادگرایی است بحث به قرن 18 میلادی یعنی قبل از تاسیس قاجاریه برمی گرده. خب اون موقع کی با تعریف ما بنیادگرا بوده خدا می دون. بعد با یک جست دویست ساله که البته خیلی نیست چون احتمالا در این دویست سال کسی اون قدر فکر نکرده می رسیم به زمان حال و بحث با نوبنیادگرایی شروع میشه.

یک جایی بنیادگراها با محافظه کارها مترادفند در حالی که محافظه کار مقابل انقلابیه و چپی ها همون اقلابی ها هستند که البته اصلاح طلبند و در مقابلشون نو بنیادگراها قرار دارند که البته با سنت گراها مخالفند و سنت گراها که همون محافظه کارها هستند که با عملگراها و مصلحت اندیش ها میونه خوبی دارند و همه دور هم جمعند و با آمریکا دشمنند و طرفدار انقلابند و ...

می بینم که از شعارهای انتخاباتی هم خوب استفاده شده.

خب از مقاله ای که درباره فضای فکری و سیاسی ایران باشه هم نباید انتظار بیشتر از این داشت و آخرش هم تو این مملکت ما که نفهمیدیم کی به کیه. انتظار هم ندارم بشه مقاله ای بهتر از این نوشت.

US attack on Iranian liaison office in Arbil

Hello, I just came across the article you created, US attack on Iranian liaison office in Arbil. I was surprised to see that, although you've supplied 16 citations, not one of them has any descriptive information, such as the name of the publication, the title of the article, etc. I have seen hundreds and hundreds of articles on Wikipedia, and this is the first time I have ever come across an article where that kind of info wasn't provided for even a single citation. It is very helpful to readers to have that info available before deciding whether to take the time to access the webpages that are linked to. So it would be much appreciated if you would make a point of completing the citations with the missing info! Cgingold 01:36, 27 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Artaxerex

Hello Sina. It is a shame that this guy is still able to edit anything on wikipedia. I think that he should have been banned indefinetely after the several sockpuppet attacks organized by him. Anyway, I have no intention whatsoever to continue wasting my time on this childish, totally useless and weak so-called encyclopedia which cannot even manage to keep the likes of this A****** from editing. I'm out of this game and I think anybody who cares about his time will eventually do the same. I think this whole wikipedia thing is evolving into an utter failure. Shervink 22:31, 17 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I came back to the article and it was still in bad shape. I've made some edits that I'd like you to review. My standards were a bit harsher this time, so I think we'll need to add real stuff to replace that which I removed. I may ask another user who has a lot of information about this subject to help out. I'm still not done with the cleanup. You can help by removing references taken from definite oppositions blogs or soapbox websites of no known reliability, such as regimechangeiran and azargoshnasp. I think the article will be much improved if we can stick to explicitly relevant information, as in the source itself relates the event to the history of fundamentalist Islam in Iran. Anyway, take a look and tell me what you think.

Also, about Reza Shah, I noticed that you canvassed a number of people about it. I want to tell you that the reason I sided with Artaxerex on that dispute was not because I think that his information is really good, but rather because you weren't providing the right reasons for taking it out. I see that you have now been a little better about it so I'll let it be for now. Artaxerex didn't seem to make any attempt to add the information in a balanced manner anyway. That's about it. The Behnam 16:24, 21 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

OK, so what specific information shouldn't I have removed? Sorry if I made a mistake; there was so much irrelevant or inappropriate stuff that it was easy for me to get mixed up. The Behnam 18:49, 22 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Racism in Iran

I'll try to help out. But I have a PhD qualifying exam in 20 days. I hope I can be excused for not being there.

You have to understand that there are users that are being paid by certain govts and agencies to tarnish Iran's name and propagate slander and lies about Iran. Me and you, people who have full time lives and jobs elsewhere, cant really confront this anti-Iranian malady. Only the govt of Iran can stop this BS, and they are currently more concerned about short sleeves, head coverings, and other "mafaased e gharbi".

New article you might find interesting

Political thought and legacy of Khomeini --Leroy65X 16:59, 21 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re:Political thought and legacy of Khomeini

Thanks for your note. I am very happy that you started this article. I went through the article quickly. If you are interested in my feedback, here is what I think:

Thanks for your feedback. I'm pretty busy but I'll try to reply to your points.

A.

I think the section on martyrdom needs to be rewritten: 1. More than half of the section is not about Iran while Khomeini was Iran's leader. 2. Khomeini did not introduce any new definition of martyrdom. 3. Martyrdom is not suicide bombing. 4. Martyrdom in Iranian literature is not necessarily a religious concept. Any soldier who dies while defending his country will be considered "Martyr", even if the person is not muslim.

I think the maryrdom section is very important. THe clearing of minefields by baseej martyrs was a big part of the Iran Iraq war and certainly unique one. Yes other country's are mentioned but this is an article about the Imam's legacy not his legacy in Iran. Khomeini wanted Islamic government to spread throughout the Islamic world. My point is that however unintended and grotesque the connection between Khomeini's promotion of martyrdom against mlitary targets in Iraq and the intihari attacks on Shia (primarily in Iraq) there is a connection, a documented connection. Pasdaran helped, trained, aided Lebonese Shia Islamists. Lebonese Shia Islamists then had tremndous success in expelling superior military forces of US, France MNF and Israel from Lebanon. Bin Laden is on record pointing to these tremendous successes as examples he would follow, and other Muslims should also. And "Al-Qaeda in the land of the two rivers" is on record calling for and bragging about attacks on Shia civilians in "martyrdom operations."

5. Suicide martyrdom, was not practiced nor recommended during Iran-Iraq war. There were some very few occasions where some soldiers were trapped in mine field and some soldiers needed to sacrifice themselves for the life of others. I think that's the highest level of humanity that a person sacrifices himself to give life to hundred other humans. Please do not mix this with terrorism. 6. In today 's Iran, any person like a teacher, a doctor, a lawyer who dies due to an accident in the work-place will be considered a martyr. For example a notable teacher who dies due to a car accident while going to school would be considered martyr. 7. Martyrdom is nowadays smells like terrorism. But the word as used in Iran refers to concepts that are praised in all societies under other names. 8. Iranian soldiers did not jump on mines in order to win the war! They were forced to do it to minimize the number of victims. 9. Iranian soldiers who died for the sake of Iranian nation during Iran-Iraq war are well respected in Iranian society no matter they are secular or religious.

Agreed martyrdom may have no connection with "martyrdom operations" (intihari) whatsoever. Agreed many in the West many may not hear the word "martyrdom" these days except in connection with intihari attacks. Agreed Iran (or Iranian military leadership or whatever) felt clearing minefields with volunteers was necessary militarily.
The idea that Khomeini expanded the definition of marytyrdom is not mine but Brumberg's. But I cannot help but notice the great publicity the baseej clearing of minefields got in the world press does appear to be strong evidence that the practice was rare if not unknown before then.

B. I think the most important subjects that khomeini wrote and talked about were: "Neither East nor West" and "Velayat e faqih".

Very important, but I have to argue not as influential as martyrdom -as-a-military-tactic/strategy. No other country uses "Velayat e faqih". "Neither East nor West" is of course the majority belief in the Muslmi world but predates Khomeini (the non-aligned movement)

C. Perhaps it is good to have a section on Khomeini's negative opinion on Vahhabi regime of Saudi Arabia and Al-qaeda. He ordered Iranian goverment to cut relation with Saudi Arabia and he clearly said that Iran may one day start good diplomatic relation with the US but never with Saudi Arabia. Iran had no diplomatic relation with this coutry until Khomeini's death.

Agreed but then Shia antagonism with Wahhabi is longstanding and not unique to Khomeini

D. There need to be a section on Khomeini's differentiation between Islamic government and Islamic Republic system. He was totally against Islamic administration without parliamentary system. (see Ayatollah Mesbah Yazdi)

Cannot agree. His book Islamic government specifically calls for the replacement of a parliment with a "planning agency" as parliments are unnecessary.

E. Khomeini was a main advocate of good Sunni-Shia relation in the world.

Agreed there should be something in about his stand on that.

F. During Russian occupation of Afghanistan, Khomeini allowed 3,000,000 Afghan refugees into Iran and helped them while Iran was itself busy with Iran-Iraq war. Iran's population was around 30,000,000 at that time. Perhaps this is one of the most important contribution of Khomeini to humanity and needs to be covered thoroughly. He considered himself a supporter of "poor people of the world".

Agreed

There are however many useful information in the article. I will comment on other parts in case you are interested. Take care. Sina Kardar 20:25, 21 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Change the names

Salam. I've thought about the names of the articles which you've made for a few months. Finally I decide to change the names.A good name should e clear and meaningful. It should be separated the article from others. But these names can't do so. I write my idea one by one:

  • Religious traditionalism in Iran: Vaqti yek fard kam ettela in maqale ra bekhanad mipendarad afradi nazir Naser Makarem Shirazi qeyr sunnati hastand. Be nazaram behtar ast ma dar in khosus be Bernard Lewis eqteda konim va az nam Quietist estefade namayeem.

There are many different strands in the rich and varied traditional culture of Islam. There are in particular two political traditions, one of which might be called quietist, the other activist. The arguments in favor of both are based, as are most early Islamic arguments, on the Holy Book and on the actions and sayings of the Prophet. The quietist tradition obviously rests on the Prophet as sovereign, as judge and statesman. But before the Prophet became a head of state, he was a rebel. Before he traveled from Mecca to Medina, where he became sovereign, he was an opponent of the existing order. He led an opposition against the pagan oligarchy of Mecca and at a certain point went into exile and formed what in modern language might be called a "government in exile," with which finally he was able to return in triumph to his birthplace and establish the Islamic state in Mecca. The Prophet's departure from Mecca—the hijra—marks the starting point of the Muslim era. The struggles in adversity that preceded his exile, like the ultimate triumph that ended his career, are all part of the Islamic tradition, of the holy life of the Prophet.[1]

Recent edits

Hi Sina,

A number of your recent edits are a bit problematic. I do think that you are genuinely trying to improve wikipedia, but I think that you need to be a bit more careful about introducing POV material and original research into articles.

For example:

  1. 2007 Gas Rationing Plan in Iran - the assertion that you made in the first sentence of this article:

[2]

is completely OR. The Act was introduced two days AFTER the gas rationing and I could find NO news source that backed up your claim. Blaming the United States, and this act specifically, is VERY POV and it is very different from the explanation presented in the world media.
  1. Creating a redirect from The Iran Sanctions Enhancement Act of 2007 to 2007 Gas Rationing Plan in Iran is also highly OR/POV. [3]
  2. Saying that "Without naming names, the nuclear watchdog was obviously refering to the war party cabal around Vice President Dick Cheney" is highly OR/POV. Citing it to Lyndon Larouche's organization, as if this were a reliable source, is insane. [4]
  3. I agree that Terrorism in Iran is a problematic article and could use some cleanup, however, removing several paragraphs of well-cited information and labeling the change as a "copy edit" is misleading.

In the future, I would strongly urge you to make sure that your sources are reliable, per Wikipedia's standards and that they do in fact back up the claims that you are making. Per wikipedia's policy on Original Research, editors CANNOT write articles based on their own personal synthesis of information they are reading (for example, that the Iran Sanctions Enhancement Act caused Iranian gas rationing). I understand that this might have been an honest mistake on your part. I don't have a particularly complex understanding of the Iranian political system and I wouldn't expect you to have a complex understanding of the American political system. Perhaps you didn't realize that in the United States, introducing a bill is not the same thing as establishing a policy. The ISEA is at the first step in a very long process that it will have to complete before it becomes law. It must be voted on by the appropriate committees in the US House of Representatives, pass a vote in the full House, repeat the same process in the US Senate and then be signed by the President. This process often takes months, many bills are rejected outright and most are changed in some way. So to assume that the ISEA is a US government policy or that it had some impact on Iran's internal decisions is really dubious, especially since it didn't exist until two days after the rationing took place. Of course, as a Wikipedia editor you shouldn't be making any changes that are based on your assumptions and this is a good example of why that is the case. Furthermore, please don't remove material and call it copyediting or a minor edit. GabrielF 23:40, 30 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Persian names

I wish to know the original Pesian names of the following Persian saints from the court of Shapur II martyred by Shapur II. In orthodox church we use only their Greek translations. Can you translate them back into Persian from English?

As is often the case in church hymns, there is a play on the meanings of these Persian saints' names here. Acindynus means "unimperilled"; Pegasius is derived from pegazo--"to gush forth"; Aphthonius is derived from aphthonos-"abundant"; Elpidephorus means "hope-bearing"; Anempodistus means "unhindered." These are all Greek translations of their Persian names.

It is important to me becase my two twin boys were born on their day (in Orthodox church we celebrate their memory Nov 15) and so they appear to be heavenly patrons of my children. You can read more about these Persian saints at: http://www.goarch.org/chapel/saints/270
