Minor Edits and Additions
[edit](1) There is no need to reference Persia here, as it is a marginally related to Iranian. Historical references to "Persia" can be noted in "Iran" section.
(2) Majority of Iranian people are not "Parsi" but are reffered to in English as "Persians". An ethnolinguistic map maybe a way clearing up this issue.
(3) "Persian Emprire" needs not be linked here but can be moved under "Iran". The other links provided at the bottom of the page are already in the text.
(4) I also added an ethnic bar to the side. More info should be added. An image to the top of the bar would be also nice. See other peoples in wikipedia for examples.
(5) The ethnolinguistic map found at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Iran_peoples.jpg would be good addition to clear up all the fuss about various ethnolinguistic groups that constitute the Iranian people. I tried to add it here, but didn't work. Someone could do this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.95.0.167 (talk • contribs)
User:Diyako is trying to make an alternative ficticious definition of Newroz
[edit]User:Diyako has created an article on a Turkic-Nowruz without mention of its Iranian history and roots. Soon we will here Nowruz has nothing to do with Iran too. His article is Nevruz. This should be merged or edited properly. He has gone on the Turkish discussions to promote it.
Here is what user:Diyako has written;
Nevruz is the spring festival among Turkic-speaking nations, from Turkey to Azerbaijan, Turkmenistan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan etc. It is very similar to the Iranian festival of Norouz.
According to Turkish legends Nevruz dates back to era of Gökturks.
Th user Diyako is definnityl anti-Iranian and has an anti-Iranian agenda.
Nevruz is not very similar to the Irnian festival of Norouz it is Norouz!
He has claimed the Kurdish flag has nothing to do with Iran and is a crime to fly in Iran. The Kurdish flag is based on the Iranian flag it is even in the memories of the founders of the Mehbad Republic who wanted to showcase their Aryan and Mede heritage. Back then Kurds only had a oral history about their only know ancestors the Mede and Mede heritage, before other ancestors were accepted. The Sun is also very significant element of ancient Iranian and Zorasatrianism. Diyako is misleading everyone. Go to Kurdistan 20 years ago let alone 50 they will say we are Aryans and our own blood relatives are the Persians. The Kurdish flag is not banned in Iran and is based on Iranian colours. This user also claims the Iranians are only a lingustic group after he saw that the tide was against him that Kurds are in definition an Iranian people so he worked to undermine the definition of Iranian people and even Persians with user:Acuman.
