This material isn't properly sourced, and doesn't make sense. First, has he emerged from exile? In other words, has he returned to Iran? If not then he's still in exile. None of the sources directly support the assertion. The first is simply a list of facebook friends. That tells us nothing other than he has many friends and supporters. The second source is a letter he wrote, calling for a peaceful revolution leading to a democratic Iran. The last two sources are from 2002, and obvious say nothing about the events of 2009.   Will Beback  talk   23:15, 26 June 2009 (UTC)

message: While cleaning out re-linked categories I notice that this subject was categorized both as an "Iranian Bahai" and as an "American Zoroastrian". Per WP:BLP we don't normally add religion categories to people unless it's self-declared and relevant to their notability. In this case, the subject's religion may well be germane, but it still needs a reliable source. I've removed both until we can clarify the matter.   Will Beback  talk   00:00, 16 April 2010 (UTC)

message: Stop your undiscussed removal of content attributed to reliable sources. To answer your claims of "misquoting of sources", here comes the quotes from the sources:
Sources for what you added to the article are biyokulule.com, bhcourier.com and familysecuritymatters.org, which none of them are reliable. Thus I revert the article to the stable version.
Before you remove any well-sourced content and such changes, you must submit your rationale in full detail. Pahlevun (talk) 13:04, 31 May 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: . Pakistan’s first fortnightly covering lifestyle, fashion, food and culture is not a reliable source for this article. If The Mayor of Beverly Hills did present him the key, provide a WP:RELIABLE source for it. Plus, the statement "Reza Pahlavi's popularity in Los Angeles among Iranian expatriats led him to receive the Key to the City of Beverly Hills" is not supported by the source. It's not even talking about popularity. If you found a reliable source, move it to the "Titles, styles and honours" section, it does not belong here. Pahlevun (talk) 07:15, 1 June 2017 (UTC)
replies: text:  About the New Yorker source, you can't cite parts of the source you favor and throw what you dislike into a bin. It's OK to use it a source for the monarchists in Los Angeles. But not in a hijacked section, maybe in another section. The section is about the support by the foreign governments, not about support among the Iranian diaspora or elsewher. There are multiple reliable sources for the CIA support and you have removed all without a proper explanation, as I said before, you have to submit your rationale in full detail. Why have you removed therse reliable sources without discussion?

replies: text:  I ignore your off-topic discussion, because the talk page is for discussing how to improve the article, not vent your feelings about it. Anyway, I saw no rationale in what you wrote about what I asked. Bob Woodward's investigative work published in the The Washington Post in 1986 is considered a reliable source (piece written by an acclaimed journalist and published by a respected newspaper) and its publication date does not make it unreliable. Plus, it is attributed in-text properly, which makes the sentence a statement of fact. If you are a newbie to Wikipedia, you better first read Wikipedia:Identifying reliable sources to know more about reliable sources. If you have any question about its reliability, feel free to ask WP:RSN. If you find the source informative about the CIA's operation to handle the names of KGB agents to Iran's regime, I would be happy if you do add it to the relevant article.
I suppose avoiding to make comment on the Tower Commission report (an official report by the U.S. authorities) and the book published by University of California Press (a scholarly peer reviewed reliable tertiary source, or at least secondary source) means that you have not found anything to question them. Pahlevun (talk) 12:31, 3 June 2017 (UTC)

text: Again you are missing the point, the source in the LA Times is anonymous, which makes it unreliable. Also it says nothing about CIA FUNDING Reza Pahlavi even in 1986. It says CIA worked with Khomeini to help Khomeini oppress/kill communists (I doubt the validity of this also). None of the sources you provided say Reza Pahlavi gets funding from foreign governments.--ExitingIran (talk) 03:58, 4 June 2017 (UTC)
replies: text:  It doesn not change a thing and that's okay with Wikipedia:Identifying reliable sources. And remember, it is attributed in-text to the source. The section is about the CIA support (not just financial support, but also logistical, political, technical, etc.) and hacking a TV transmition is some kind of support. Two of the sources directly point to the funding:

There is a mistake in the cited foreign honour title given by the Italian Republic back in 1974.
