The result was no consensus. Though in my opinion as an editor, the article needs better sourcing and a partial rewrite. Currently much of it reads like a cable by the Korean Central News Agency. Sandstein 07:38, 3 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep (edit conflict) This event is a unique moment in the history of relations between Iran and Germany and it is more than notable to have an article here. It has reliable sources such as academic magazine of Zeitschrift der Deutschen Morgenländischen Gesellschaft and also several sources in Persian, including BBC Persian. No other foreign government has ever held such ceremonies to praise any of the Iranians like this and this event had a significant effect on relations between Reza Shah and the government of the Third Reich. I can say this article is more notable than over 80% of articles of the English Wikipedia.--Ferdolf (talk) 11:15, 25 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep (edit conflict with the previous editor) It was an interesting event in the history of Germany, revealing a bit about the ideological background of the Third Reich. This could be an interesting source (in German). --Vejvančický (talk | contribs) 11:40, 25 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Why should we not have articles about the obviously notable topic of Nazi propaganda? Phil Bridger (talk) 21:19, 27 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Apparently we should have that. But why under the banner of "Ferdowsi celebration"?Siricius (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 18:42, 29 November 2010 (UTC).[reply]
- Please read the opening sentence of the main article Ferdowsi Millenary Celebration: Ferdowsi Millenary Celebration (Persian: جشن هزاره فردوسی), was a series of celebrations and scholarly events in the year 1934 to commemorate the thousandth anniversary of Ferdowsi's birth. ... This article describes in detail the situation in Berlin, Germany. What's wrong with the title? --Vejvančický (talk | contribs) 07:06, 30 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- The exact title of German article is "Die Firdosi-Feier in Berlin" which means "The Ferdowsi celebration in Berlin". No body has explained where is the so-called propaganda in this title?--Adel Wolf in EnWi (talk) 09:31, 30 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Because this user has created several sockpuppets in Farsi Wikipedia to delete this article there. Don't worry his socks will rush here to vote. He is indeed a sock himself. Take a look at his contribution list and you will see this account has been created, only to vandalize this article. Be prepared for his sockpuppets and meatpuppets as you will see lots of "Delete" votes here with ridiculous reasons, such as "Nazi propaganda", "No reliable source", "Notability" etc... And also be prepared to see this account be blocked for cross-wiki vandalism by recommendation of his supporter who is a steward in meta and has lots of sysop friends in English Wikipedia. Just forget about the so-called policies of Wikipedia, this site has became a mafia-like dirt-hole with lots of gangs of sysops and stewards to eliminate anyone whom they don't like.--Adel Wolf in EnWi (talk) 04:16, 28 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
