Talk:Bazrangids

message: This article completely lacks of sources. 
The content 
«By the end of the 1st century BC, most of the islands of East Africa were annexed by the Bazrangids. These islands entailed Socotra, Zanzibar, Pemba, Mafia, Combolo/Comoros and Madagascar.»
is completely untrue and made up. 
About Iranian peoples in East Africa during pre-Islamic times:
«No remains which show any Roman, or pre-Islamic South Arabian, influence have been found. It cannot conclusively be shown that any of the reputed finds of Hellenistic or Roman coins were mede in situ in Africa; the excavations by J.S. Kirkman at Ras Mkumbuu (Ndagoni) on Pemba Island, the only reputerd find-spot investigated archaeologically, make it almost certain that the coins supposed to have come frome that place did not in fact do so.

thread_title:  Part of the content if this article is completely untrue and made up 

message: I find this article a little bit hard to believe. So a tribe from Iran founded every city in Zanzibar and created a massive empire which stretched from East Africa to the Philippines (and even to China)?
So why does Google turn up less than 100 results (when you subtract the Wiki derivations)?
I'm not saying this is made-up, but I would like some (preferably English or French) sources to confirm the extraordinary claims made in this article.rcduggan (talk) 21:26, 20 October 2008 (UTC)

message: How is it possible that not one single episode of this show has ever been posted on the internet?
Also many sites claim this show started in 1992, not 1993. Also Wikipedia page says it ended in 2009 - is anyone actually sure about this? lol. Also this wikipedia page claims it airs on "Action" channel. The 'Action' website says it does not air this show. Very puzzling that a "Cops" style show that has aired hundreds of episodes in US and Canada, and not one is online, and nobody knows anything about this show when it was still called "To Serve and Protect" before being re-titled (and re-edited) to "Under Arrest".  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.235.217.130 (talk) 06:46, 12 February 2019 (UTC)

message: I recommend giving Clarke's trilogy priority as it was published first and then in 1998 republished as the Toronto Trilogy in uniform editions. What's more, Davies' trilogy was (sadly) never completed. I should add that I'm not entirely convinced that he would have applied the name to the books. Gibson provides nothing more than speculation, writing in his Introduction to The Merry Heart: "he researched and prepared for the novel that would foillow it - to make up what might have become known as 'The Toronto Trilogy'..."

Talk:San Francisco Chief

message: I removed this from the article to move it here:
:The heavy line shown on the "Grand Canyon Route" map above is incorrect for the San Francisco Chief, I don't know how to edit it out.  The San Francisco Chief was unique from most Santa Fe transcontinental passenger trains as it ran on the "southern" main line.  The southern main branched from the north main in Emporia Kansas. It passed through Harper & Kiowa Kansas, Alva and Shattuck Oklahoma, Amarillo TX, and Clovis New Mexico.  It rejoined the northern main near Dalies New Mexico.  The San Francisco Chief departed from a totally true "southern" main-line route by diverting through major urban areas like Wichita Kansas.  It is unknown if it got to Wichita by going through Newton KS or if it went through Florence, Peabody, El Dorado & Augusta.  There is some excellent video of the San Fransisco Chief in Amarillo TX on the DVD "Santa Fe Odyssey Volume 1" distributed by Green Frog Productions, LTD.

text: The Scout was discontinued as a Chicago-Los Angeles train in 1948 but survived as a Newton, Kansas-Belen, New Mexico train until 1954. It appears on Santa Fe 1953 timetables but not on the January 10 1954 timetable, so my guess is that its last run departed January 9. As listed in the timetables up until 1953, it was a through Chicago-Albuquerque train, but in fact ran through cars on the California Limited to Kansas City, an unnamed Kansas City-Galveston train to Newton, the named Scout from Newton to Belen, and an unnamed train from El Paso to Albuquerque via Belen.

Farāyeen first makes an alliance with Piruz Khosro and asks him to kill Ardashir Shirooy (Ardashir III) and then captures Ctesiphon. Ferdowsi even refer to Farāyeen as "Goraz" (Boar). In Shahname, Farāyeen after 50 days of reign was killed by "Shahrāngorāz" (شهران‌گراز) (the same way Shahrbaraz was killed by Farrukh Hormizd), so Farrukh Hormizd is identical to Shahrāngorāz.
