Hello Parsa,

I was fixing the lede in the Nader Shah's invasion of Mughal India, and I was thinking of putting this into it, but I wanted to hear your opinion first. If you agree, I'll put it between the part where it says he has invaded and defeated at karnal etc, and the part that he could affort fighting against neighbouring ottoman turkey.

Basically this;

When a rumour broke out in Delhi that Nader had been assassinated, some of the Indians attacked and killed Persian troops. Nader, furious, reacted by ordering his soldiers to completely plunder and sack the city. During the course of one day (March 22) 20,000 to 30,000 Indians were killed by the Persian troops.^[1] During the massacre, the Mughal emperor Muhammad Shah had to beg Nader to grant him and his people mercy, before ceding the keys of the city and royal treasury to him.^[2] In response, Nader Shah agreed to withdraw, but Mohammad Shah paid the consequence in handing over the keys of his royal treasury, and losing even the Peacock Throne to the Persian emperor. The Peacock Throne thereafter served as a symbol of Persian imperial might. Among a trove of other fabulous jewels, Nader also gained the Koh-i-Noor and Darya-ye Noor diamonds (Koh-i-Noor means "Mountain of Light" in Persian, Darya-ye Noor means "Sea of Light"). The Persian troops left Delhi at the beginning of May 1739. Nader's soldiers also took with them thousands of elephants, horses and camels, loaded with the booty they had collected. The plunder seized from India was so rich that Nader stopped taxation in Iran and all its territories for a period of three years following his return.^[3]

Let me know what you think about it. I think personally it be a little bit too much info for a lede.

I am sure that this will make a valuable addition to the article if you can integrate it into the section under "Massacre".Parsa1993 (talk) 00:01, 27 April 2015 (UTC)

Aight, I agree about that. Thanks for your response. - LouisAragon (talk) 14:39, 28 April 2015 (UTC)

What do you think about this? - LouisAragon (talk) 00:17, 7 May 2015 (UTC)

As to the proposal that we should replace Mughal empire with Sardar empire, I understand that there have been numerous names given to the empire including Gurkani, Teimuri, Sardar empire and so on. But by far the most common title bestowed upon the empire in English language literature and history is simply Mughal empire which I think is good enough.Parsa1993 (talk) 11:03, 7 May 2015 (UTC)

Could you please give the ISBN of this source which you added on a number of Wikipedia articles, including Siege of Baghdad (1733). I was unable to find it on WorldCat. --bender235 (talk) 23:36, 23 May 2015 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Naderian Wars, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Khorasan. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hey Parsa, the persian gulf campaign of nader only mentions the sultanate of Muscat and some unnamed pirate groups and sultanates. I was hoping you'd be able to find exactly what other sultanates nader conquered in the persian gulf. That way I may be able to expand the map of his empire in the persian gulf. Did he conquer Bahrain, Qatar or Kuwait?

Would be great if you could find out

Happy thanksgiving

History of Persia (talk) 13:19, 11 October 2015 (UTC) History of Persia (talk) 13:19, 11 October 2015 (UTC)

I know beyond a doubt that he conquered Bahrain and the northern rim of the Arabian peninsula from the Hormuz strait stretching all the way round to the gulf of Oman and to the Arabian sea. As to what polities and factions were involved in these regions I would need to do some thorough research before expanding the article. Currently I am pouring through books and documents for the battle of Karnal which needs a major expansion. Parsa1993 (talk) 16:39, 11 October 2015 (UTC)

Hi there! Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:

I noticed your recent edit to Aleppo offensive (October 2015) does not have an edit summary. Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.

Edit summary content is visible in:

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. Thanks! Gizmocorot (talk) 09:15, 3 November 2015 (UTC)

Hello, i saw that on the Naderian wars article there is a bit more information about the war than on the Nader Shah Article. Should that extra information be transferred to nader shah article?Nader Shah (talk) 02:41, 4 November 2015 (UTC)

P.S. could you also create the articles about Battle of Herat (1729), Battle of Andalal, Battle of Avaria, and Siege of Baghdad (1743)? And could you also expand on the articles about nader shah's indian invasion. i dont want to put load on you but i personally think these are necessary

Nader Shah (talk) 02:44, 4 November 2015 (UTC)

Hi, I think those sections of the Naderian article which expand upon the person of Nader Shah are necessary to the article and provide a better understanding of the wars. Hence I do not believe their removal to another article is necessary. As to your question about the other articles I agree that the battle of karnal and battle of kars are terribly short and uninformative articles which need to be dramatically expanded. I will be doing this soon. Parsa1993 (talk) 08:44, 4 November 2015 (UTC)

Hey Parsa1993, regarding this edit, the source literally states "crushingly", but I guess we can indeed use soundly indeed as well? Just wanted to see what your opinion is, so we will both use consistent terminations for the future. Bests - LouisAragon (talk) 13:52, 11 November 2015 (UTC)

Hi, the source does state "crushing defeat" but I just thought "crushingly" sounded quite odd and I've never heard that before. Soundly beaten or decisively beaten sound much more standard. That's all. Parsa1993 (talk) 13:58, 11 November 2015 (UTC)

@Parsa1993:, hey man, regarding this spree, I've reverted everything back to your last edits as its simply warring from their part, while totally disregarding reliable sources given (even literally quoted) by highly noted historians. If they revert it again without actually writing something on the talk page (which I doubt) you can report them easily. Agha Mohammad khan died two years after the conquest,!and the Russians moved into Tbilisi in 1799. However, for those two years prior to his death Georgia was definetely again under Iranian rule. I have absolutely no objections against rewording if they can actually find a source that literally/specifically states that it was not (re)-conquered, but I doubt they'll ever get one of those. Rewording is an option too, if they well argumentise their concerns with the inclusion of references. Anyways, we'll see. Bests - LouisAragon (talk) 09:28, 12 November 2015 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Zpeopleheart. I noticed that you made a comment on the page Siege of Mosul (1743) that didn't seem very civil, so it has been removed. Wikipedia is built on collaboration, so it's one of our core principles to interact with one another in a polite and respectful manner. If you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Zpeopleheart (talk) 23:16, 15 November 2015 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Siege of Mosul (1743). Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing.
Do not edit war. Replacement of the disputed materials after your three reversions counts as a 4th revesion of the same material. Kindly self revert or I will be fored to report your disruptive behaviours to the appropriate noticeboard. You have a history of edit warring. Zpeopleheart (talk) 23:55, 15 November 2015 (UTC)

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. Thank you.

Hello Parsa1993,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Siege of Baghdad (1743) for deletion, because it appears to duplicate an existing Wikipedia article, [[{{{article}}}]].

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. MarkYabloko 06:40, 19 November 2015 (UTC)

I was hoping you could make some articles aboutthe wars of Timur. There are alot of red links in the list of battles box. thanks

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Please do not wait several days, thinking i am no longer watching the page, before you revert my edit. Even worse is to falsely claim that i concurred with you when i clearly didn't-- as the article's talk page shows. Your action is shifty at best and will be reported if repeated.--49.180.164.93 (talk) 02:44, 14 December 2015 (UTC)

I'm not buying your excuses. I have stated my reasoning clearly each time. If you continue making edits using shifty excuses then i will report you for disruptive editing.--49.195.20.197 (talk) 07:11, 14 December 2015 (UTC)

I have referred you for DR.--49.180.169.150 (talk) 23:48, 14 December 2015 (UTC)

Parsa, has anyone ever recognized your efforts? Despite your amazing job on the Battle of Karnal article and battles related to Nader Shah, people seem to have a taste for reverting. Any "Barnstars"?

To be honest I was only ever interested in creating those articles because I felt that it was a shame that there were virtually no wikipedia articles on Nader's spectacular military career. All I wanted was to establish a rudimentary pool of historiography for one one the most interesting military careers of the eighteenth century for anyone who was interested in that fascinating era. I couldn't care less about any rewards or Barnstars. Just the fact that you read the Karnal article and thought it did a good job covering the events of the battle is more than good enough for me. I only hope I did the subject matter at least a measure of justice, and of course thank you for your kind words.Parsa1993 (talk) 03:38, 26 January 2016 (UTC)

I am currently looking to expand and improve this article, in no small part to removing Baddeley, a journalist and not a reliable source.

I found this book, which gives the impression that Sheikh Mansur's rebellion was in and of itself a separate conflict from the Russo-Turkish War (1787-92). In this book page22, states the Russian High Command had made no plans for the Caucasus during the 1787 war. In your opinion, of what you know and/or can find, should Mansur's rebellion and the Russian response(s) be separate from the 1787 war or included? --Kansas Bear (talk) 16:24, 5 June 2016 (UTC)

This book page 99 states operations in the Caucasus front was ruled out. --Kansas Bear (talk) 16:48, 5 June 2016 (UTC)

I honestly don't feel I have the expertise in this field to give an authoritative answer either way. My area of research is from late 1500s to mid 1700s Iran. I'm afraid I'm just not well-read enough in this area to contribute to the above discussion. Parsa1993 (talk) 17:52, 5 June 2016 (UTC)

Thanks anyway. --Kansas Bear (talk) 20:13, 5 June 2016 (UTC)

Dear Parsa, thank you for your useful contributions in Iranian history articles. I have recently read the article Morteza Mirza Afshar (Nassrollah Mirza). I want to inform you that according to "Alamara-ye Naderi" which is written by Mohammad-Kazem Marvi, the former name of this prince was Morteza-Qoli not Morteza. I believe that it is better to move this article to "Nasrallah Mirza (son of Nader Shah)". This prince is better known under the name of Nasrallah, on the other hand he shouldn't be confused with another Afsharid prince "Nasrallah Mirza (son of Shahrokh)". Kind regards Shfarshid (talk) 14:19, 23 June 2016 (UTC)

Is that the right flag of the Afshar dynasty? Please be sure, hopefully you find a reference, thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.71.142.104 (talk) 01:24, 3 July 2016 (UTC)

Hello my friend, I have seen some of your works recently, I wanted to say I'm very impressed. I really like what you did in Battle of Fallujah (2016), Kuweires offensive (September–November 2015) and Second Battle of Tikrit. Your maps are amazing. I'm so happy that we have you in Wikipedia. It would be great if you draw a map for new operation in Aleppo which is called Aleppo offensive (June–August 2016). You can get some inspiration from this link: syria[dot]liveuamap[dot]com I'm big fan of your works, cant wait to see your new work.

This message was sent as a courtesy reminder to all active members of the Military History WikiProject.

G'day all, please be advised that throughout March 2017 the Military history Wikiproject is running its March Madness drive. This is a backlog drive that is focused on several key areas:

• tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
• updating the project's currently listed A-class articles to ensure their ongoing compliance with the listed criteria
• creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various task force pages or other lists of missing articles.

As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.

The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the military history scope will be considered eligible. More information can be found here for those that are interested, and members can sign up as participants at that page also.

The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 March and runs until 23:59 UTC on 31 March 2017, so please sign up now.

Just a quick correction to the prior message about the 2022 MILHIST coordinator election!

The voting will occur here; sorry about the need for a second message and the inadvertent omission from the prior one. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 17:42, 15 September 2022 (UTC)
