You can now recommend a news item on iranian.com and start a discussion on your favorite topic. This is just a start and your feedback will help us improve:
http://www.iranian.com/main/news

How to post a news item:

* If you are a registered user, go to:
http://www.iranian.com/main/news

* SUPER TITLE: Write your own headline.
Example: rare books are a steal

* TITLE: Copy/paste original news headline.
Example: Iranian is quizzed on theft

* Link to Original Story URL: Copy/paste web address of the news item.
Example: http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/topstories/215/

* EXCERPT: Copy/paste the most important part of the news item.
Example: An Iranian businessman has been arrested for allegedly stealing rare books and prints from the British Library. Farhad Hakimzadeh, 49, was escorted from his £350,000 flat in Knightsbridge, West London, and questioned by detectives at Camden police station.

* Short News Comment: Write initial comments about this news item.
Example: I had heard about this case a few months ago. I don't know Hakimzadeh but his Iran Heritage Foundation in London has done so much quality cultural work in recent years. I just hope none of this is true. The news is very strange. I mean, how could someone simply walk away with so many valuable manuscripts and not expect to be caught? Unless you really really want to be caught. I would love to know what Hakimzadeh has said in his defense.

* Click on SUBMIT and your news item will appear on the news page and on the news column on the front page (if the editors select it as a featured news).

Thank you!

Greetings.  Thank you JJ and Foaad for the next step in self-publishing on Iranian.com.  I tried it by submitting a headline.  It looks really good!  Letting readers post and talk about a piece of news is a great idea whose time has come.  But if a reader just wants to tell others about an item without much "editorial" contribution, it's a bit cumbersome to have to type so much just to post the headline/item.  I'll try it again soon.


Jahanshah Javid

works for me!

by Jahanshah Javid on

Thanks for the feedback Irandokht. All the links work for me. But there is the possibility that Foaad has not made it available to general users yet. I have left him a message. Hopefully we'll get it going soon. Sorry for the incoveneince :o)

Great Idea

by IRANdokht on

Thank you JJ!

Those Headlines on the main page and the witty comments on them are absolutely intriguing and all the items are related to Iran and Iranians which make excellent topics of discussion, but: http://www.iranian.com/main/node/add/contrib-news

is not allowing access at this time.

Have a great time tomorrow night and jayeh maaro ham khaali konin lotfan
