Cleanup needed
There are a number of problems with this article. Here are just a few that I found:
 * As of 19 March 2003, any explanation of the strange lights are unknown. — this sentence just doesn't make sense.
 * On 3 April 2003 a UFO was photographed flying over Baghdad, the craft was not seen by any of the civilians or solders and its unclear of what the object really was. — if no one saw the craft, how did they photograph it?
 * On 6 April 2003 five cylindrical shaped UFOs were sighted near the Tigris River and that the objects were filmed and televised live on Fox News although theres no evidence that Fox News actually filmed the objects — either Fox News did show the objects or they didn't, this sentence doesn't make it clear which is the case.

I edited some of the obvious errors in the first paragraph, but the remainder of the article still needs work.

Doesn't it seem painfully obvious that these aircraft are most likely US planes flying overhead? KevinPuj 22:55, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

Badly written, non-encylcopedic, listed for deletion
It is unclear whether a rectangular something on a photo is a piece of rubble or a UFO? You cannot be serious. Añoranza

yeah that is pretty stupid. If it cant be indentified, isnt it a UFO?


 * This has to be a leading contender for being one of the dumbest articles on Wikipedia. --Nick Dowling 02:17, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

Suggest split
As everyone should well know, Iran and Iraq are not the same (it is not even funny anymore) and the events listed here do not appear to be related. What we have are separate UFO incidents in two different countries that have nothing to do with each other. I suggest a split into two articles: UFO sightings in Iran and UFO sightings in Iraq. Please vote below. Khorshid 03:40, 19 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Support since it is my suggestion. Khorshid 03:40, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Support as per Khorshid -- Ķĩřβȳ ♥  Ťįɱé  Ø  05:55, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Support.--Nightryder84 19:27, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

I have split the articles and listed Iran-Iraq UFO Sightings for deletion. Khorshid 05:25, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Bbc1.jpg
Image:Bbc1.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.
