Where to get help
If you need help editing or submitting your draft, please ask us a question at the AfC Help Desk or get live help from experienced editors. These venues are only for help with editing and the submission process, not to get reviews.
If you need feedback on your draft, or if the review is taking a lot of time, you can try asking for help on the talk page of a relevant WikiProject. Some WikiProjects are more active than others so a speedy reply is not guaranteed.
To improve your odds of a faster review, tag your draft with relevant WikiProject tags using the button below. This will let reviewers know a new draft has been submitted in their area of interest. For instance, if you wrote about a female astronomer, you would want to add the Biography, Astronomy, and Women scientists tags.
Once you save your changes using the "Publish changes" button below, you will be able to resubmit your draft for review by pressing the "Resubmit" button that will appear here.
Comment: Given that the two individuals' notability is dependent on one another, it would probably make the most sense to cover them in the same article (see examples like Wright brothers). HouseBlaster (talk · he/him) 21:40, 17 March 2024 (UTC)
Comment: Most of the sources are primary (her own book) which are of limited value. Wikipedia cares what independent reliable sources say about a subject not what a subject says about themselves KylieTastic (talk) 22:59, 21 January 2024 (UTC)
Iranian-American Christian missionary, author and public speaker
Marziyeh Amirizadeh (born 1979) is an Iranian American public speaker, author[1] and activist.[2] She was born in the southern province of Kerman, Iran in November 1978. As a young adult, Marziyeh became a Christian and subsequently began distributing Bibles – a capital crime under Iranian law.[3][4] On 5 March 2009, she and her co-religionist, Maryam Rostampour-Keller[5] were arrested on charges of apostasy, blasphemy, anti-government activities[6], promoting Christianity, acting against state security and taking part in illegal gatherings.[7][8][9][10] The next 259 days were spent mostly in the infamous Evin prison in Tehran[11][12][13] where they were tortured and interrogated.[14] and they were finally released after intense pressure was applied on the Iranian regime through various bodies including the pope, the US State Department and the United Nations.[5]
Marziyeh has written two books to date, Captive in Iran, which was co-authored with her friend, Maryam Rostamour-Keller, [12][17] and A Love Journey with God which was completed in 2022.
