List of Iranian dynasties and countries
AfDs for this article:


 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Follow-up to Articles for deletion/List of Turkic dynasties and countries. WP:OR/WP:SYNTH, fails WP:LISTCRITERIA (the lists equivalent of WP:NONDEFINING), and long series of precedents confirming that language family is WP:NONDEFINING for countries, territories, dynasties, and individual people. Many users at the "Turkic" AfD urged me to nominate the "Iranian" list as well, so here it is.

On 12 June, I mistakenly WP:bundled this "Iranian" list with a couple of other lists/articles at Articles for deletion/List of Iranian dynasties and countries. It turned out that they were too different from each other to lump them all together in a single AfD, so I withdrew the nomination. The AfD ended in no consensus, with No prejudice against creating AfDs for individual articles, if desired. So now I'm only nominating the List of Iranian dynasties and countries individually. (Incidentally, virtually everyone at the bundle AfD seemed to agree that this "Iranian" list should be deleted, but we should judge it anew on its own merits rather than as a part of the malformed bundle.)

 * The list is of value. I don't see an argument of why it should be deleted. Is any part of it inaccurate?! If so, It can be updated? I personally found it very informative. 2600:1700:BF10:CE60:6512:B576:E7A0:7A1E (talk) 01:59, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
