notability, completely lacking sources, written as travelogue, WHC dubious, as those articles are simply written better Chris (クリス • フィッチ) (talk) 05:53, 13 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I don't understand this nomination. Chris, as a very experienced editor you have probably done your homework... Could you clarify exactly what exactly makes the Unesco entry [1] dubious? Which articles are simply written better? The Behistun Inscription needs more work, too. But it's about the inscription, not the whole site. And "written like a travelogue" can be fixed by regular editing, can it not? Or is it the ...'palace part of the name? East of Borschov 10:59, 13 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep While the article was horribly written at the time of the nom, the underlying topic is notable, and I got rid of the blatant original research. (As a result, the article is now two sentences long, but it's still better than it was.) TheCatalyst31 ^{Reaction•Creation} 03:17, 14 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - Good job TheCatalyst31 for removing the hyperbole. It does seem to be a notable historic topic. [2] The World Heritage Committee is not a "dubious" source. --Oakshade (talk) 05:45, 14 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
