Arash the Bowman

WELCOME

Thanks for the information. My family also contains many Azari's (cousins, uncles, aunts, etc...) and what bothers me the most is when Turks from Turkey or from North Azerbaijan want to come and make such lies about Iran and Iranian Azari's. Anyway, you can sign your name at the end of your posts by putting in this symbol ~ four times. Here are some things you may be interested in: WikiProject Iran and Iranian Wikipedians' notice board. I suggest you add those to your watch list and your name under participants. Khosrow II 18:01, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Scythians

Dear Arash, There is no need to be worried since all their evidence either do not exist or is faulty. Just don't break the 3RR rule, but other than that, everything is okay. Barefact uses illegitimate materials and that is why one of his enteries was closed because of all the OR. Everything he rights is OR and non-scietific. And don't worry about Barefact's claim as he has already made threatened me several times with expulsion, but he doesn't have the right to do so since it is perfectly legal to ask him to discuss material before he inserts it. --Ali doostzadeh 18:12, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Keep an eye

Looks like barefact broke the 3rr rule in Scythia. Please keep an eye on scythia, Ossetic, Alans and make sure he does not insert pan-turkist NOR propoganda. His warning are also useless since we have every right to dispute NOR and all the encyclopedias and modern scholars support the truth. --alidoostzadeh 23:54, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

Seljuks

I really dont think it matters whether the Turkey banner is up there or not. If you want, you can add the Iran banner.Khosrow II 22:40, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

Re: Fuzûlî

Hi. Thanks for your message. I know that "و" is pronounced both as va and as o in Persian. I don't have any solid sources for changing it, to be honest; I've just seen a few transcriptions lately (admittedly, from Turkish sources, which are perhaps more likely to use va because of the word ve—"and"—existing in Turkish), and they mostly rendered it as va rather than as o. That, coupled with my scanty knowledge that o tends to be a bit more idiomatic than va (though I still don't know exactly how), led me to make the change. However, I defer to your knowledge in this area, so please feel free to change it back.

On an unrelated note connected with Fuzûlî—namely, that word mahlas—I know that it is a word with an Arabic root (خلص), and I know that Fuzûlî wrote in Arabic. The reason I focused on it as an Ottoman Turkish word was that Fuzûlî is far and away better known as an Ottoman (and not an Arabic or even a Persian) poet, and that was the language he wrote most extensively in. That is why I wanted to keep it as an Ottoman word, which it legitimately is (also, it clutters up the first sentence a bit to have too many things between those parentheses). Any more thoughts about that?

Cheers. —Saposcat 09:10, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

Barefact 20:22, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

Dear Arash,,looks like barefact wrote his email here too. I have a good pdf book on Scythians and if you would like I can email you the information about it. alidoostzadeh@yahoo.com . It might prove helpful against his falsifications. --alidoostzadeh 16:52, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks Arash. Acutally originally it was Chehregani, but then it became Chehreganli, Johreqanli, Choreganli, and several other vatiations and permutations. BTW send me an email alidoostzadeh@yahoo.com and I'll send you the book on Scythians. The Scythian articles need more work for sure, but I do not have too much time and maybe we can work together.. --alidoostzadeh 19:32, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

Azerbaijan

Hey, you wrote at the beginning of this talk page North Azerbaijan to label Azerbaijan. However, if anyone use the South Azerbaijan, you get angry and accuse these people as pan-turkists. This is a regional labelling and has nothing to do with nationalism. Take a physical atlas and have a look. You'll see it's a common labeling in geography. E104421 19:41, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

Edit warring

Arash, please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly. Rather than reverting, discuss disputed changes on the talk page. The revision you want is not going to be implemented by edit warring. Also, please note that 3RR does not give you a right to 3 reverts per day. The policy says, "Users may be blocked for edit warring or disruption even if they do not revert more than three times per day." Thanks, Sarah Ewart 14:30, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
