Much of the content of this site seems to have been taken from http://rbedrosian.com/Imyth.htm. I've therefore removed it. --Saforrest 17:45, Aug 19, 2004 (UTC)

Edit from 00:43, 18 January 2024‎
This edit mostly changed the term 'Iranian' to either Aryan or Indo-Iranian. This is problematic for a number of reasons

- Airyanem Vaejah is a distinctively Zoroastrian and Iranian concept. It has no equivalence in India and a focus on Iranian people is therefore justified. - The changes were made without regard for internal consistency and broke several links to other Wikipedia articles. - Aryan as a term has associations with supremacist and Anti-Semitic ideologies. Instead the more correct term Arya, or the scholastic term Indo-Iranian should be used. For both terms, Wikipedia articles exist, which were not linked during the edit.

For these reasons, I mostly reverted the changes made in the edit. The above points need to be addressed before further changes are made.
