Iran Geography

Hi. You reverted my edit in page Iran and you stated the reason as "Unfit. Lies outside the line". Please explain what lies outside the line? As I see, The last 3 photos (Sepiddasht, Hormuz Island and Polond Desert) lie in the 3rd line. It depends on the font size you use and should not be a criterion.

@M samadi: Hi.
Well, that's how I see that in my desktop version. You're probably right; that was not a quite logical reason.
But don't you think it's a little bit too much to have three images showing deserts? I mean, we already have images of the two most well-known deserts of Iran. Don't you think that's enough for showing the presence of deserts within the geography of the land?
We could go on with tens of other images like that within that gallery, just because they exist too, but that wouldn't be logical. Don't you agree, Mostafa?

About the number of images from deserts of Iran, if you see, now there are four images for mountains of Iran, two for jungles, etc. That section is for Geography of Iran and should be devoted to mountains, jungles, deserts, rivers and so on. Furthermore, there was not any image from east of Iran and Great Khorasan before and the high quality image from Polond Desert could be a good sample for Geography of Eastern Iran.--Mostafa 20:16, 9 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@M samadi: Alright. The no image from the east argument is acceptable.

@ZxxZxxZ: Consider leaving summaries for your edits. And do some research on the issue if you're to discuss it.
Pasargadae was the first dynastic capital, under Cyrus II.[1][2] Persepolis emerged later under the reign of Darius I.[3]

Ok, so we should keep all of the city names. --Z 16:21, 14 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
