Talk:List of contemporary Iranian scientists, scholars, and engineers

message: The "P" and "R" links were chacked and updated.--Zereshk 14:39, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Link update list

message: I had a correction to this list (via email to the Foundation) - Theodore Farabee is, I'm told, American of Italian background.  I've removed him until this is checked -- sannse (talk) 11:19, 27 July 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Correction? 

message: #Only add people that have achieved national awards or recognition, or are deans, directors, or chairs. Being only a "Professor of Physics" or being "board certified" does not count. It's not enough. THIS IS NOT A FACULTY LIST. Nor is it a successfull Iranian businessman list.
#Provide link to back up your claim. Trust me, we've had people come and add graduate students to the list.--Zereshk 19:45, 25 November 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Please read: To make additions to the list...

message: This list needs a major clean-up. Most of the names are just average university professors, or CEO or CTO in small companies (some of them are just a project manager). I think all the red links should be deleted, unless there is a reason for the notability of that person (that reason should be backed by a link to a credible source). Being CEO or founder of a company can not be the reason, unless that company is notable. Jahangard 22:17, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

message: Almost none of the scientists mentioned live in Iran.  They have long-held positions in foreign countries and most are citizens of other countries.  A few weren't even born in Iran!  I think the description should mention that the scientists mentioned are "of Iranian descent" instead of Iranian -- Iran had/has little to do with their accomplishments though that's what the article suggests. If the list were trimmed to just notable scientists that are Iranian citzens it would be rather short, so a re-wording is a better soltion.  TeamZissou 15:44, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, it is what the scientists themselves claim to be, and what they are recorded as identifying as. Regardless of how we interpret "what they are", it is ultimately only a matter of how they identify themselves. I agree that those born in the U.S should only be seen as being of Iranian descent, but for those born in Iran, it becomes a question of both how they self-identify, and where they were educated. Even having U.S citizenship unto itself may not be enough, as many are recognized by both governments as citizens. In other words, this is a touchy subject, and OR can quickly become a problem, without the actual scientists recorded views established. Atari400 17:25, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

text: Also, perhaps a better list would be Iranian-American scientists as well? Atari400 17:27, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
