Baha'i studies

Serv181920, please explain this revert. Cuñado ☼ - Talk 17:21, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I believe this part "of Iranian provenance, but they are a small cohort." is also important.

Edit : And Juan Cole has resigned from the Baha'i faith when he wrote this, so he being a former-Baha'i is also important. Serv181920 (talk) 17:33, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I think considering the link to Juan Cole, his background is not really necessary to expand upon. This page should focus on Peter Smith. I included the longer quote that you thought was important. Cuñado ☼ - Talk 18:30, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

That's fine. Thanks.Serv181920 (talk) 07:30, 14 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
