Is the "Revolutionary Worker" a reliable source? I'd be inclined to doubt that, but this section seems to be entirely based on it.

I've added some background material and a section on Azerbaijan 1946. Most of it is text I borrowed from Wikitravel [http://wikitravel.org/en/Iran], where I was the main author. [[User:Sandy Harris|Sandy Harris]] 03:57, 6 November 2010 (UTC) |

Iran 2006
It looks like this section has become muddled and doesn't appear to make sense. David Finn 08:59, 25 September 2010 (UTC)
Actually, it started out muddled - this text was lifted directly from Wikipedia, yes? David Finn 09:03, 25 September 2010 (UTC)
Fixed now. David Finn 09:08, 25 September 2010 (UTC)
- There is nothing in this article to say it came from Wikipedia, but there should be - the quality is extremely poor. The section General guerrilla actions in Iran by ethnic minorities is so incomprehensible that I am tempted to delete it. David Finn 09:17, 25 September 2010 (UTC)
- Technically, it came from WP. I had written a more coherent version there, but it got hacked considerably by partisans, and I had hoped to get it cleaned up here. Articles such Iranian nuclear program and Iranian Security Forces are CZ-original. Perhaps this needs to be split into smaller articles and cleaned up. While I renamed the "general guerilla actions", the subject is important, and it's probably worth noting that the Baluchi groups operate in Pakistan and possibly Afghanistan. Howard C. Berkowitz 09:28, 25 September 2010 (UTC)
- I am sure the section is useful, just not readible or very easy to understand - it is all quotes with no supporting text, interspersed with comments that have no source. I am quite interested in Iran though, so I will continue my reading about the situation and see if I can help the article any. David Finn 09:55, 25 September 2010 (UTC)

Introduction
I've added some background material and a section on Azerbaijan 1946. Most of it is text I borrowed from Wikitravel [1], where I was the main author. Sandy Harris 03:57, 6 November 2010 (UTC)
