[edit] Iranianism

Iranianism (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

This article does not accord with the WP:NEO MoS guideline. Perhaps this should be taken to Wiktionary (I'm not familiar with their criteria), but in any case it sure isn't appropriate here. The Behnam 05:20, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

Delete agreed for the reasons listed above. spazure 07:36, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

• Comment If this page is renamed as Pan Iranianism and properly cited with WP:RS sources then, i will vote to KeepTaprobanus 14:35, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
  • I can't figure out why it should be renamed "Pan-Iranianism" unless that term is somehow closely related to the neologism "Iranianism." The source he used uses the term "Iranianism." The Behnam 17:17, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

• Comment This article needs more context and needs to explain what Iranianism is beyond "a monolithic tradition ... to which all the peoples of the Iranian region have made important contributions to." What little I know about Iranian culture, I do not doubt that a term like this exists, but this article is not even "half finished" and informs the reader of little. Seeing there is no context provided and reading the article does not explain what Iranianism is, deleting this may serve as a motivation to approach this article properly if recreated (if it is not fixed before this AfD closes, which I hope it is). daveh4h 15:56, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
• keep but expand. All sources provided are academic.--Zereshk 03:31, 19 July 2007 (UTC)
