Talk:Malak Ghorbany

message: :On the day of her punishment, the woman's hands are tied behind her back as she becomes covered from head to toe in winding sheets and is placed seated in a pit. The pit is then filled up to her chest with dirt and the dirt is tamped down. At that point, members of the community are invited to murder her by hurling rocks at her. The Iranian government has mandated the size of the stones that are to be used in this act of public execution, they must not be too small as to prevent ultimate death, nor must they be too large that they could cause the girl's death "too soon."
The above is general info appropriate perhaps to the stoning article (which already has most of it) but not this article. If some of the controversy has been because the method is regarded as unduly cruel, then this can be mentioned with appropriate sources. However we should only talk about this briefly, there is no need to go in to detail for something which is covered in the stoning article. But it is not appropriate for us to talk about how stoning is carried out in Iran in this article. Even more so since the above paragraph is not very NPOV. 'Murder' is debatable and most of it is also applicable to men executed by stoning in Iran as well so the reference to women and girls probably unfairly makes it seems like this is something exclusive to women (of course, women may be more likely to be sentenced to execution by stoning but that's a different issue). Please remember that however much something may disgust you, we still have to be NPOV and only include relevant info. Nil Einne 12:10, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Stoning info 

message: This article is very incompletely reported, very inaccurate, and is based to large degree on sources that don't meet Wikipedia standards.  I suggest someone rewrite it based mostly on Amnesty International reports, see  (search for Malek). 220.253.187.152 (talk) 13:46, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  This article 

message: I don't think the sources are the problem, as there are lots of materials that can be found about this case from reliable sources on the internet.  The problem seems to be lack of proper attention to the page.  It needs to be revised for grammar, style, etc.  Also, it may not be a bad idea to get in touch with Lily Mazahery's office to get a photo and other materials for this case.  I remember that she had the copyrights to a photo of Malak Ghorbany a while back when it was published in a newspaper, the name of which I now can't remember.  They have tons of good info. about these cases, and I would contact them myself, but I've already bugged them so much that I am embarrassed to do so again for a while!  --Autoplay91 (talk) 14:36, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
