Copy edit

[edit]

@LouisAragon: Had a first quick run through. There is a new cite needed. What do you think? If you are happy I will expand the lead and have another run through for copy editing.

The quality of this article's English is much better. Gog the Mild (talk) 16:28, 4 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@LouisAragon: Reference 16 is Tapper, p. 152, but their is no Tapper in the source list. Gog the Mild (talk) 23:51, 5 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Gog the Mild: It seems AustralianRupert beat me to it. Thanks, both of you! - LouisAragon (talk) 17:50, 10 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

1796 drawing vs 1805 coin?

[edit]

@HistoryofIran: I found a Russian-made plan of the 1804 siege which I believe is kinda ok for the infobox. Would you keep the 1796 Russian etching in the body of the article, or would you swap it with something like a 1805 coin minted in Erivan by Fath-Ali Shah?[1] Curious for your opinion. - LouisAragon (talk) 01:05, 19 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@LouisAragon: The etching imo. --HistoryofIran (talk) 14:34, 19 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
