Improved to Good Article status by HistoryofIran (talk) and Cplakidas (talk). Nominated by Onegreatjoke (talk) at 02:35, 18 May 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Shirvanshah; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.

  • New enough, long enough. Hooks short enough and sourced (as is every paragraph); I prefer ALT2. No neutrality problems found, no copyright problems found, no maintenance templates found. QPQ done. Good to go.--Launchballer 16:26, 27 June 2023 (UTC)
