Photo montage
The current photo montage of Tehran contains images of two main symbols of the city, along with images of two historical structures, a famed public park, and a skyline of northern highrises of the city.
The image North Tehran Towers.jpg, which was added on 7 September 2015 and removed on 9 September 2015, was replacing the image which shows one of the main symbols of the city, and was providing another view of a region which is already shown in the montage. It was also contrary to the description.
Please consider to discuss about your criticism before editing, in order to prevent technical errors and edit wars. Thank you for your cooperation.

- It's your taste not a public opinion that you refer me to here! I think the picture you added is not clear and it shows Tehran's night which the photo that I added, has a better quality and shows Tehran skyline better. GTVM92 (talk) 05:58, 12 September 2015 (UTC)
- You have provided a quiet personalized edition, containing several obvious and disputable errors, dear GTVM92. The issued replacing images are contrary to the offered description, the article's main subject, and a valid visual order; due to the use of an image showing a monument outside the capital, two outsized panoramic views, and a resized image viewing an unremarkable neighborhood.
The montage will be reverted to the previous version. Avoid repeating the edition, and provide your criticism with a sensible explanation.

- I don't replace the image which any symbol! I just add better images to the article without removing any picture of symbols!! It's just a personal ideas not as you said edit war!! It's not defect any Misplaced Pages laws!! GTVM92 (talk) 13:57, 24 April 2016 (UTC)
Largest or 2nd largest?
The page states Tehran is the 2nd largest city in Western Asia. Baghdad's page states the same about Baghdad and mentions Tehran as the largest. Tehran is bigger than Baghdad by over 200 km2. Shouldn't that be fixed? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 150.254.62.137 (talk) 11:22, 4 November 2015 (UTC)
Tehran's Montage
Dear Alborzagros,
The images that you have taken into consideration contain obvious visual defects and cannot be used in this section.
They are outsize, irregular, and certainly unimportant, and are lacking the expected standards.
Please provide your criticism with valid explanations, and avoid repeating the edition.
Thank you for your cooperation.

I recently offered gallery-box below in which there are more significant and famous cites rather previous one.

@Rye-96:
but some people undid my contribution. please answer why it is happening. Alborzagros (talk) 11:59, 7 November 2015 (UTC)
- @Alborzagros: The considered images include a panorama in which we have a quite superficial and non-systematic view of the city, a view of a statue belonging to a poet who is fundamentally native and related to another region of the country, an image of a narrow corridor within the old market of the city which doesn't offer a leading notation, a view of a pavilion in Niavaran Complex which has replaced the image of Shams ol Emareh of the Golestan Palace (the seat of Qajar Dynasty, which is obviously more important in terms of architecture and locality), and a view of the entrance of Tehran University which, despite having the fame, is not a main site and does not have a considerability in the fields of location and architecture.

- In the current montage, we have views of both modern and historical sites with important positions in economic and historic perspectives, views of the Azadi and Milad towers which are the two well-known symbols of the city, and a consideration to road and environmental views. These images are quite fit and regular in terms of size and visual quality, and are enough as a leading descriptive view of the city.

Montage issues
Dear user, the panoramic view of Tehran from Qeytariyeh.jpg represents a view of the district of Qeytarie in 2010, when some of the buildings shown on the image were still under construction. Aside from the lack of significance, this image does not represent a proper portrayal in this section. Instead, it can be a reasonable view alongside the paragraph of high rise developments in the section of Architecture.
The extreme long shot of North Tehran Towers.jpg, which includes a vast unseasonable empty space, is also a wrong choice for the section of montage.
Please avoid I just like it arguments, and prevent edit warring.
Rye-96 (talk) 18:16, 31 March 2016 (UTC)
- Which building is under construction in the picture?! Please show me! I think the image is more newest than File:Golestan Palace, Tehran, Iran (1249288212).jpg. GTVM92 (talk) 14:02, 24 April 2016 (UTC)
- The famous Pars Tower; take a look at the left side of the image.
That's a historic building. Nobody's allowed to alter its structure.
Stop vandalizing the article. You think you are helping, but you're wrong.

The metropolitan area
@TheStrayDog:
Greater Tehran (or Greater Tehran Area) refers to the metropolitan area in English-language sources.
The term Tehrān e Bozorg is used in Persian-language sources, which literally translates to "Great Tehran"; but this translation (as well as your version, Tehran the Great) does not occur in any formal English-language sources.
Please stop changing that based on self-formulated literal translations.
