Hamidreza Ghelichkhani

Dear Wikipedia Support Team And Editors

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to bring your attention to a significant oversight in the English Wikipedia page titled "List of Persian Calligraphers" specifically in the section dedicated to "Contemporary Iranian Calligraphers".

It has come to my notice that there are several notable names missing from this list, rendering it quite limited and lacking in representation.

One of the prominent contemporary calligraphers that I would like to highlight is Hamidreza Ghelichkhani. He is not only an accomplished calligrapher but also the creator of a new character in Iranian calligraphy. This innovative character, formed by combining the letters "ه" (h) and "و" (w), adds a unique dimension to the realm of Iranian-Islamic calligraphy. Ghelichkhani's portfolio includes an impressive array of calligraphic artworks and illuminated manuscripts, showcasing various Iranian-Islamic scripts.

Of particular significance is his introduction of the standalone character "هو" which enriches the existing repertoire of Iranian-Islamic calligraphy characters. Hamidreza Ghelichkhani has emerged as one of the leading figures in contemporary visual arts and calligraphy in Iran. His contributions have not only expanded the boundaries of calligraphic expression but have also nurtured the heritage of this traditional art form in the modern context.

It is my earnest request that the Wikipedia page "List of Persian Calligraphers" be updated to include Hamidreza Ghelichkhani's name in the section devoted to contemporary Iranian calligraphers. His pioneering work and influential role in advancing calligraphy deserve recognition alongside other esteemed artists.

I sincerely appreciate your dedication to maintaining accurate and comprehensive content on Wikipedia. Your efforts contribute to the dissemination of knowledge and the preservation of cultural achievements.

The address of Hamidreza Ghelichkhani's official website is:

https://www.ghelichkhani.com/en/page.php?2

Ghelichkhani also has some pages in social networks and his page in Instagram is:

https://instagram.com/hr.ghelichkhani?igshid=OGQ5ZDc2ODk2ZA==

In Persian language the name of Hamidreza Ghelichkhani is written: حمیدرضا قلیچ‌خانی

Thank you for considering my request to enhance the representation of contemporary Iranian calligraphers on Wikipedia.

Best regards,
