I think I messed up the wikiprojects section. I tried to link the section to the Wikiprojects page I had made earlier:

WikiProject Iran

But something's not right.--Zereshk 22:56, 28 July 2005 (UTC)

More linking
This article/page needs to be more linked across WP, so people can access it more readily. At present, Im not sure how many visitors its getting, considering the efforts being put into it to update it.--Zereshk 23:48, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

Major extension
Done but still it needs some more. Amir85 15:06, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

Selected picture
I wanted to know how often we change the selected picture? It'll be also a good idea to add a short description for the image and also make an archive for the older selected pictures, for those who missed to see them. Iran portal of French wikipedia is a good example. --Arad 19:00, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

Who is born in Iran here? Use this template on your user page:

THE GOGGLES, THE DO NOTHING!
Seriouslu, neon green and blue colors at the portal? Can anyone please colors with better harmony? The current colors are like a stab in the eye. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.225.225.253 (talk) 16:54, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Tazareve.jpg
Image:Tazareve.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

List of Iran cities by population
I created the article List of Iran cities by population. The population of cities in that article is according to 2006 census. To add or edit the population of an Iranian city, you can use the information provided in that page. --M samadi (talk) 17:11, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

Unknown ruler of Persia
The article Unknown ruler of Persia about a king of Parthia circa 80 BCE has been tagged for expert attention. If you are familar with the topic, your help would be appreciated. --Eastmain (talk) 23:51, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

changes
I have made some changes to this page. Some are more obvious than others, like the colour, but others just help it run smoother than it did before. For instance, the selected image is updated weekly Automatically! I have a few images queuing to get on the page and if you want to add an image to that just search for Portal:Iran/selected picture/a week (e.g. 35. numbers must be between 1 and 52). If the page doesn't exist then CREATE it and add the picture. If a page does exist then add a 1 to the number. This week is week so please don't add any pictures to pages that have a number less than. This is because i have to sort out a hiccup at the end of the year. I'm going to do this with some other sections too.Ardeshire Babakan (talk) 13:14, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

Needed article
Guys,

I think this article is needed in english wp. She is becoming a pretty high ranking banker nationally, and an important political campaign supporter in US politics.

If somebody would do the zahmat.--زرشک (talk) 21:06, 12 October 2008 (UTC)

Hello, do you want to expand and wikificate this article like this one: de:Khoda? -- JCIV (talk) 13:01, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

Selected biography
How does an article about a building become the selected biography for this portal? Did have authorization to make this change, or was this just a unilateral decision? WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 11:54, 2 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Apparently, the same user has taken it upon themself to change the Featured picture and the Selected article. All of these changes have been made without any apparent discussion. Would any of the more experienced members of this portal / project care to address this?  WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 12:09, 2 September 2010 (UTC)

Maps
Hi all, The following map of Persian Gulf nation, UAE, shows Abu Musa Island and the Greater and Lesser Tunb as UAE land. This is incorrect. How do we resolved this via wikipedia.
