Verifiability[edit]

There are some details that I cannot verify through the provided sources (admittedly I can't read Farsi). For instance the David Cameron paragraph, I don't find that at all. The only thing I see is BBC saying: He [DC] said: "The expulsion of diplomats by Iran is clearly not acceptable and the British government was absolutely right to respond." The final paragraph seems to be what is from the Farsi (Persian) sources, which I cannot confirm at all. --SVTCobra 23:04, 23 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Review[edit]

Names[edit]

I had high hopes, when I wrote this, that given Talk:Ayatollah Ali Khamenei speaks about Iranian presidential election protests at prayers#Names I wouldn't have to explain about Arabic names and Korean names again so soon. It, sad to say, seems that I was wrong. Uncle G (talk) 23:35, 24 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

My apologies to Brian. I just looked at the diff you listed and assumed it was the previous editor. Thanks for correcting me. --SVTCobra 23:52, 24 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for spotting it wasn't me, I am used to Thai names on this issue but did not spot that error. I believe most asian names are shortened to the first, the one I am most used to writing is Thaksin - as in that on-the-run-former-Thai-Prime-Minister. --Brian McNeil / talk 23:54, 24 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
