Untitled[edit]

Iran’s page should be called Iran (Persia)  – The preceding unsigned comment was added by WhatIsThatAwh (talk • contribs) at 7 January 2020‎ (UTC).

توضیحات ایران[edit]

ایران کشوری در غرب آسیاست. خاورمیانه اگرچه برای مدت طولانی استفاده می‌شده اما از دید افراد ساکن در ایران اشتباه معنایی دارد (شرق میانه). توضیحات انگلیسی هم غرب آسیا را تایید می‌کند. Iman00 (talk) 12:44, 11 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Flag property[edit]

{{Edit request}} It would be nice to add a statement linking to the actual flag of Iran (https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q126622) in addition to the flag image, which is already present.  – The preceding unsigned comment was added by StepanBalazik (talk • contribs).

applicable P17 value[edit]

@Eru: I restored this to ensure this item also has an associated P17 value. If there are queries where this is a problem, please edit it to ignore it. --- Jura 06:27, 12 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Jura1, it's not a query and I'm not going to remove it now, I just don't see the point of self-referencing P17 on a country, but I see other countries have the same property. Is it because the states and the country are the same item ? — eru [Talk] [french wiki] 06:41, 12 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
There is some discussion on this on Property talk:P17 and elsewhere. Queries that try to determine which country a value is associated with are fairly common and would fail if the value is a country directly (e.g. ?item wdt:P19/wdt:P17 wd:Q794 ).--- Jura 06:45, 12 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Highest Point[edit]

Hello, The value for the Highest point P610 is wrong. It is supposed to be 5610 meter, as listed on the Mount Damavand item, and other Wikipedia projects. Please update the value at your earliest convenience. Regards, M.M. מתקןמחשב (talk) 11:37, 23 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

✓ Done, but some source say also 5671m : https://iranicaonline.org/articles/damavanderu [Talk] [french wiki] 16:26, 23 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you very much for your help! מתקןמחשב (talk) 19:33, 23 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Iran → Iran, Islamic Republic of[edit]

Please change lable of this entry to complete name. If an application wants to use this lable it could result ambiguity sometimes. For example if I want to get and display the country of citizenship of Qasem Soleimani in my app, it would be "Pahlavi Dynasty and Iran". But Pahlavi Dynasty was also ruling "Iran" at some time. So the time related to I.R. Iran would be ignored by many people. Thanks Kydnd (talk) 18:13, 3 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Article Iran even speaks about Pahlavi Dynasty, Qajar, etc. So we should either remove the Pahlavi Dynasty, Qajar, etc from citizenships and only keep Iran, or change the Iran to Government of the Islamic Republic of Iran (Q16052369) everywhere that is needed (for things happened after Iran revolution 1979).
