I'm not sure why you removed a perfectly good photo, since you didn't use an edit summary. What's going on? Bearian (talk) 20:02, 21 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

We don't need two photos of the same event. The article is not that long either and per MOS:IMAGES too many [images] can be distracting or cause undue weight: usually, less is more. Keivan.f^Talk 23:54, 21 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

In the Persian-language article, your claim is seriously challenged, and they rely on a completely different set of sources. Their argument seems more credible, especially since they reference well-known outlets like the BBC and Radio Farda and are speaking from within Iranian society itself. In Iran's domestic context -- where I myself am an Iranian activist based in Bandar Lengeh in southern Iran -- the roles of the Prevention Police, the Criminal Investigation Police, and the NOPO Special Unit in such matters are very clear and well established.

Also, the ground force unit that carried out the operation in Kermanshah was the Saberin Special Forces Brigade. Additionally, the Nabi Akram Corps of Kermanshah is part of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), not part of the Basij, which itself operates under the IRGC.

Furthermore, Ali Moayedi, head of the Prevention Police, and Mohammad Ghanbari, head of the Criminal Investigation Police, are both senior military commanders in Iran.

Please revise your article accordingly and align it with the Persian-language article. mythm sjdy (talk) 02:45, 28 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

@mythm sjdy Just a quick reminder that this is not "my article"; everyone contributes to it. If there is an issue that is specifically contradicting reliable sources you can always either raise it on the article talk page, or take it to WP:Teahouse if you currently cannot start a thread, and ask them to guide you to the appropriate venue for discussion.

Hi Keivan.f -- I hope you don't mind me asking here. I raised a small punctuation question on the Princess of Wales Talk page, but I haven't had many responses other than from the editor who prefers not to include the commas, so I'm hoping to get your view as well. It's about the comma after the year in constructions such as "In 2025, ...". On most other royal biographies -- including several featured ones -- that comma is consistently included. Across the Wales-family articles, though, it generally isn't. The pages seem to have been kept like that because the rest of the article follows the same pattern, but on most other royal biographies the comma is included. Another editor on the Help Desk mentioned that ENGVAR doesn't determine this either way, and that it really comes down to local consensus. I'm happy to go by consensus, but I'm not really getting any at the moment other than from the editor who prefers not to include them. I just wanted to check whether the no-comma approach on the Wales pages is an intentional house-style choice, or whether adding the commas for consistency with the wider royal articles would be appropriate. I'd really appreciate your opinion. Thanks very much. ItsShandog (talk) 12:58, 28 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. My personal preference would be to include the comma after year. Do I have a strong feeling about it though? Not necessarily. But I would suggest opening an RfC on one of the talk pages if the user in question is unwilling to budge. The RfC should ask the participants if the inclusion of the comma would improve the article's readability or something along those lines, while pointing out that it has been done for some featured articles.

Thank you! ItsShandog (talk) 19:09, 28 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

I have opened RFC a day or so ago but nothing seems to be happening and nobody else is commenting are you able to put your opinion under it as the editor I know values your opinion on these things as I think they work with you on those articles and I value your opinion also and we seem to agree on the comma usage and think your input might be helpful. Thank you. ItsShandog (talk) 16:15, 3 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]

It usually takes time for users to come around because that's not the only RfC open at this moment. I'll leave a comment whenever I find some spare time. Cheers. Keivan.f^Talk 17:31, 3 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Oh okay I'm not familiar with RFC so wasn't sure and no problem, thank you. ItsShandog (talk) 18:08, 3 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Neutral point of view/Noticeboard regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is New death figures mentioned in the infobox.. The discussion is about the topic Talk: 2025-2026 Iranian protests. Thank you. --Hu741f4 (talk) 23:02, 28 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. ~2026-16343-3 (talk) 22:58, 31 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

I see that ItsShandog has already approached you with respect to the commas. I remember Tim's suggestion to drop the commas at GAN for multiple articles given its British English. Also, I have been spending quite a bit of time at FAC where I did find British English-articles dropping those commas.

I know your personal preference from the above discussion but I am myself confused as to what to do the next time I write in British English. MSincccc (talk) 10:31, 6 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]

I have added the commas in the Wales biographies in my most recent revisions.

I am still a bit unsure about the approach for future British English writing and would value any guidance when convenient. Thank you. MSincccc (talk) 05:29, 7 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]

If you look at what I said earlier, I have already stated that I have no strong feelings about this. And I'm sure no editors will clutch their figurative pearls if we keep it or omit it. But for the sake of clarity, in British English, the version without the comma is more common and generally preferred. An example would be "In 2026 he visited Italy." Here "In 2026" is a short, straightforward time adverbial at the start of the sentence. British style tends to avoid commas after short introductory phrases unless they're needed for clarity or rhythm. The comma version is not wrong, but it's slightly more characteristic of American English, where commas after introductory elements are used more freely. But does it really matter? Not really, because both are grammatical, natural, and easily understood. The difference is more about regional habit than correctness. That being said you're more likely to see (and want) a comma if the opening phrase is longer or more complex (an example would be In the early years of his career, he visited Italy.) because here there's a risk of momentary confusion so you want a deliberate pause for emphasis.
