Merger Proposal

I wish to propose a merger of the existing article, Iranian gender restrictions in education, with this article. I am interested in the merger as in the Iranian restriction article there is currently little context and details on what restrictions on education are imposed for women and how it has affected their participation in society over time. Details on what restrictions were imposed and lifted throughout Iran's history are absent, save for the years 2010-12. I want to expand the context around these existing years, and show the restrictions as a part of larger history in Iran's educational sphere. Cmhofley (talk) 00:43, 15 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Review of amendments

Hi Cmhofley!

I really liked the idea of merging Iranian gender restrictions in education with this page. The merger improves the readability of the article by providing readers with context of the issue. To further improve the article, I would expand the section on the ‘Role of education in Iran’ to ensure a balance between the history of the issue and the effects of the reforms on Iran. I would also include data from more recent sources in the ‘Rohani Era, 2013-Present’ section. Lastly, in addition to the journal articles and texts that the article currently cites, I would also include statements sourced from international agencies such as the UN.

Keep up the good work! Scowch (talk) 21:23, 15 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Review of Article: Some Recommendations

The article looks great! Your overview of the history of education for Iranian women is very comprehensive and easy to read! I suggest adding a section on the effects of education on modern Iranian women to make the article a more thorough and broad understanding on women's education in Iran. This section could also include a variety of viewpoints based on different authors' viewpoints. This of course depends on the availability of this information in the literature. I also suggest rearranging the outline of the page a little bit so that you have more than two large sections. Right now, you have one substantive large section, and one large section for References. I recommend breaking down the large sections more to give readers a better understanding of how the page is organized. For example, you could have a large section titled "History of Women's Education in Iran" and have the current sections 1.1-1.4 under the history section. Overall, your article looks great -- keep up the good work! Jbarczak (talk) 23:05, 16 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! Awesome job, this article is incredibly comprehensive and well-balanced. You’ve clearly spent a lot of time on it! I would just re-format it so “Women’s Education in Iran” isn’t a subheading (since its actually the heading and whole subject of the article). Also, I would suggest adding in a couple more sources given the length of the article and double checking to make sure each section doesn’t rely on one or two sources too heavily. That will help make each section a little more reliable. Other than that, add some more blue links and proofread. Awesome job, I learned a lot from reading your article!Neha.nigam2017 (talk) 06:00, 18 May 2016 (UTC) The “Women’s Education in Iran” is “start rated” article and require more work. If I end up working on this article I will expand on the historical context of the article, add a section on the impact of women’s education on the Iranian economy, and I will also add a part on the minority women education in the country. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aazmak1989 (talk • contribs) 17:43, 7 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
