Ethnicity

Since Dust is born in Afghanistan (a non-Arab country) and her real name is Sooraya (a Persian name), she should not be included in the fictional Arab category.Nokhodi 06:21, 21 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This is true. Afghanistan comprises of diverse ethnic groups, for example people whose ancestors would have come from places such as persia, russia and india.

Rewrite:

This article needs heavy revision. It's written in the wrong tense, has way too much Plot Summary, no real world context, and afully OR trivia section. I'll cut that last one in a moment. ThuranX (talk) 11:35, 2 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that the trivia section needs to be removed. There's no importance to the character (or anything else) that she has similar powers as another wholly unrelated character and the section about other "Dusts" should be incorporated into a disambiguation section. The last part concerning her abaya and niqab can be incorporated into the character bio.Luminum (talk) 21:36, 2 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
