message: This article contains numerous copies of the text on Anahita on the Iranica Encyclopedia. If you don't want to get sued i suggest removing those and rewriting this article immediately. Which itself is a biased, most likely written by the editor named fullstop, who continuously edits Iranian articles according to his own POW without anything stopping him.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.209.159.184 (talk) 09:36, 19 August 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: For starts, no legal threats please. That's a fast way to getting yourself blocked. As for the statement, you're going to need to provide more details before we can act on this. I'm not familiar with Iranian culture or mythology, so it's hard for me to judge. I did a search for "Iranica Encyclopedia" and that brings back the Encyclopædia Iranica as the top result. Searching on it for "Anahita" does not come back with any results... Tabercil (talk) 04:45, 17 September 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: It appears the IP was suggesting that the article is a copy of this article from the Iranica. Granted, I have only made a brief comparison, but I haven't yet found any any plagiarism. At this point, there does not appear to be any copyright violation.  — CactusWriter (talk) 06:15, 17 September 2010 (UTC)

message: I would like to add some discussion of Merlin Stone’s work on Anahita. Would there be any objection to this?  AnaSoc (talk) 06:52, 8 March 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Can you share the information before adding? I would think her work possibly worth adding due to her influence on modern neopagan perspectives on various goddesses, who to be honest are likely to be some of the most common visitors to such pages. However there may need to be some recognition that her thesis has fallen significantly out of favor, even in those same circles due to a lack of supporting evidence for her claims, and counter-claims of cultural misappropriation, which I haven't seen even on her wikipedia page.

message: I happened to notice that everything in the following paragraph after the word 'Zoroastrianism' has recently been removed with the edit summary 'unsourced'. In fact, the part until the word 'cults' *is* explicitly sourced in the wiki markup with a quote from the same article that is cited for the previous part of the sentence. The last two sentences are not sourced, but they, too, are uncontroversial and extremely easily verifiable - perhaps somebody interested in the matter will bother to add a source for them at some point. As for me, I won't be reinserting anything in the article, sourced or not, since I have neither the time nor the desire for edit warring.--95.42.19.211 (talk) 23:37, 3 April 2021 (UTC)
