This seems like an article on arabic loanwords in persian, not the entirety of persian vocabulary by any means. --68.72.216.130

Please be bold and add more referenced information as you see fit. –jonsafari 17:29, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Move to Loanwords in Persian vocabulary

The current article is about that. Jahangard 20:34, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

I agree that the current article is mostly about loanwords, but I think there should instead just be a section called Loanwords within this article, rather than move the entire article. My main problem with contributing more to this article is the difficulty of getting my hands on reliable sources about Persian vocabulary. They do exist, though. –jonsafari 15:37, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

The article claims the majority of leaders of the Islamic state are of non-Persian origin. Does the author have any sources confirming this claim, or is it just a baseless supposition? In fact, the current President of the Islamic Republic, Mahmud Ahmadinezhad, has a pure Persian surname, so I'd like to see any website, book or newspaper article giving confirmation to this remark.
