Template talk:Iran Census 2006

Point link to actual copy
The link says archived in 2010-11-16, but archive.org has no copy for this date, and the link brings to the calendar page, which starts in 2013. People will try to click the most recent archives, but the archives for 2013 and 2012 give 404 errors... Please use this link to the most recent working copy, and update the date to "2011-11-11", thanks.

Author missing
Can you add author information in a last = Vahdati, first = M.  or if you don't like using the last user who modified the Excel spreadsheet info, then  author = Amar1 would work. Either way, an author makes it more conducive to consistency with other citations. speednat (talk) 20:09, 23 November 2013 (UTC)
 * M. Vahdati is nobody and should not be added to the citation. Where did you find it? 4nn1l2 (talk) 23:38, 18 April 2021 (UTC)

Both url's (principal and archive) are dead links. Hence useless.

 * Red information icon with gradient background.svg Not done: The archive link works when you add a valid first parameter. I've added an example to the docs, although I'm not sure of the exact URL scheme that is being used. — Mr. Stradivarius  ♪ talk ♪ 05:27, 5 October 2014 (UTC)

Please change "//wayback.archive.org/web/20111114233307/http://www.amar.org.ir/DesktopModules/FTPManager/upload/upload2360/newjkh/newjkh/.xls" to "https://web.archive.org/web/20110920084728/http://www.amar.org.ir/DesktopModules/FTPManager/upload/upload2360/newjkh/newjkh/" and "http://www.amar.org.ir/" to "https://www.amar.org.ir/" - using a non-relative link gives a better estimate of which pages are still using http://, also updates archive link to the current naming scheme.

Date format suggestion
The current date format used is technically ambiguous, but practically not, being all numeric: 2011-11-11. I would suggest adding a switchable date format. MOS:DATES suggests avoiding all-numeric dates. I'd suggest adding two options: DMY and MDY. These would render as either "11 November 2011" or "November 11, 2011", respectively. Why provide two options? Because date format is established on a page-by-page basis by editing precedent. Thanks for considering. --User:Ceyockey ( talk to me ) 01:15, 11 April 2020 (UTC)

Islamic Republic of Iran is ridiculous as that is the name of a country, not an organization. Please change it to Statistical Center of Iran. Thanks 4nn1l2 (talk) 09:13, 20 April 2021 (UTC)
