# Talk:Yazdegerd I

I think this is dubious since he was a Zoroastrian.  Persecuting or acting tyrannical towards people who happen to be Zoroastrian is not persecution of Zoroastrians, since that has to be because they are Zoroastrian.  He is known in the Shahnameh as "Yazdegerd the Unjust," so I will cover his tyrannical ways in the near future.  The Behnam 03:27, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Well I'll look into the "Christian" part which I don't remember for some reason.  I may be entirely mistaken.  The Behnam 03:28, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
No I don't think I am.  I believe this clears it up [1].  The Behnam 03:31, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
I don't think he is known as Yazdegerd the Unjust enough for that page to be redirected to here --Rayis 10:40, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
I have a copy of Shahnameh by Dick Davis.  I don't know if you've read it, but "Yazdegerd the Unjust" is the same king as Yazdegerd I.  I made the redirect because someone reading Shahnameh may be interested in that king and type him in, but find nothing.  The redirect should solve this.  Sorry for the confusion, and please remove the 'prod' from that redirect.  Thanks.  The Behnam 12:41, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Mr.Behnam I am the writer of that article. My source is this.

I think it might be helpful if somebody familiar with both the Zoroastrian and Christian sources were to contribute a paragraph on Yazdgird's fluctuating policies towards the Christians.  He started off as a reasonably tolerable ruler, and ended up being downright vicious.  As it stands, this article makes it seem as though the Christians had only themselves to blame for being persecuted.  I don't doubt that they tried to stretch the limits of Zoroastrian tolerance as far as they could, but the Zoroastrians were hardly innocent victims of Christian bullying.

I will do this one as well since I will have time. NoahTalk 15:25, 2 April 2020 (UTC)

" was Sasanian King of Kings of Iran" was a Sasanian...
I've seen different opinions of this, such as Kavad I where the spelling was accepted, it's kinda weird. I've added "a" though. --HistoryofIran (talk) 23:40, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
"he succeeded his brother Bahram IV (r. 388–399) after Bahram's assassination." could this be rephrased to avoid using Bahram twice in just a few words?
Done. --HistoryofIran (talk) 23:42, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
For the Etymology, you can delete the first citation since both sentences are cited from the same source
Done. --HistoryofIran (talk) 23:42, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
Some of the images are missing alt text
Fixed. --HistoryofIran (talk) 23:51, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
Could you please vary the sides on which images are placed?
Erh, not sure there is enough space for that without making it look kinda weird. --HistoryofIran (talk) 23:44, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
"when the priestly leaders agreement to cooperate with the court" agreed?
Yup, fixed. --HistoryofIran (talk) 23:42, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
"Yazdegerd I died in 420. According to 5th-century Armenian historian Movses Khorenatsi, Yazdegerd died of disease" Could these be combined?
Imho I don't think they should, I've changed it a little bit. --HistoryofIran (talk) 23:52, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
That should be it. Another pretty good article! NoahTalk 23:23, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
