Any comments?

No comments, only more question marks. From the article you should conclude that Balash was crowned twice, that Spain (Iberia) and Albania were part of Iran, and where is it explained that the king of the Hephthalites once was a friend of Peroz, save for a short spell of peace? There's a difference between Hephthalites, Huns and Kushans, but that's not very clear here. I think the whole article should be rewritten by someone who is more knowledgeable about Sassanian history. Soczyczi 19:57, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
By the way, the coin looks gold, but is it indeed a gold coin? I thought these are extremely rare and also smaller than this one. Soczyczi 20:37, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
This is a poorly written article, and should be rewritten. As written, it is more an eulogy than an encyclopedia article. However, "Iberia" refers to an ancient region in the Caucasus, not the Iberian peninsula, and is correct as is. An appropriate hyperlink is needed though for those who will not be familiar with this usage. On the other hand, some of the existing hyperlinks lead to some really weird places-try clicking on "trickle", for instance. A hyperlink to "Ephthalites" would be another example of a badly needed link. A general audience is simply not going to have any idea about the relation, or non-relation, between Huns and White Huns, or any of the regional references made. Indeed, one would in principle like to see hyperlinks to economic, cultural, and military relevant articles. References are also needed for an article such as this, as is some sort of statement about what is known, what is not known, and what is speculated and by who. It would also be really helpful to incorporate a map. Preferably, the article should be rewritten by a specialist in Sassanid history. In summary, what is wanted here is history, not mythology. Nonetheless, "C" for effort to the author.----

Should I copy edit and comment on this as if its ultimate destination were GAN or FAC? IMO, it has the potential to go to FAC. Gog the Mild ( talk) 22:42, 12 November 2020 (UTC)

OK. That's me done. Definitely FAC potential here. My suggestion is that you put it in for GAN, then for ACR at MilHist. If it does go for ACR, give me a ping and I'll give it another look over then. Gog the Mild ( talk) 13:54, 16 November 2020 (UTC)
