Is there an official translation into English in Iran or English-speaking countries? What is it? "Counties"? СЛУЖБА (talk) 14:33, 12 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Let's rename the page "Shahrestans of Iran" like http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Шахрестаны_Ирана СЛУЖБА (talk) 14:38, 12 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified one external link on Counties of Iran. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

Asked this on the district page, but got no response. Does every piece of a district belong to either a city or a rural agglomeration, or is there territory that can sit outside of either and is thus governed directly at the district level? --Criticalthinker (talk) 09:56, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for the late reply. Every district has some combination of cities and/or rural districts, the individual boundaries of which appear to be coextensive with the district. The total districts are coextensive with the county, and the counties with the province. Few districts are just a city and few are just rural districts. The trend has been to create counties out of one or more districts, promoting a city in the new Central District into the county's capital, and often a former village to a city in the new districts created.

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Counties of Iran's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 03:07, 16 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
