---Reaction in Iran---

This title doesn't fit. As sources cite, the anger of Persians over this movie was not limited to the ones living in Iran. I personally like the "Persian Depiction".

300themovie.info website

There is website getting very popular very fast. Here's the description of the website from their own page.

"300themovie.info (<a href="http://300themovie.info">300 the movie </a>) is an ongoing collaborative art project featuring art by artists using the theme of 'ancient Persia'. Driven by an admiration for arts, and united by a common concern about the barbaric and demonic portrayal of Persians in Frank Miller's graphic novel and the movie 300, we have come together to voice our objection in a uniquely artistic fashion. The call for art has just been released and we are still receiving the artworks."

The site includes variety of intresting and different art forms. it also includes information in forms of videos about the times the Battle of Thermopylae happened. --siavash 23:18, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

I appreciate you taking the time to explain that to us. However, most of us already knew all about the site. It's a POV website. It has no place even getting mentioned in the article. You might want to revisti the half-dozen times its been discussed, explained and dismissed. Perhaps you could read throught he archives and see these various conversations. I hope that explains things sufficiently. Arcayne 02:39, 21 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

My mistake.--siavash 03:35, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

I read the topics, thanks. The website is not POV though. I think the controversy section of the movie page is little disorganized. There are many movies that have created controversies before, and there are many people who can only get access to credible sources of those controversies through a wikipeidean movie page. ( I am specifically referring to movies like Borat! the Cultural Learning of America, or Passion of the Christ). A website would be anti-fan if it's a petition (no content). The 300themovie.info web page seems different as first of all it's all Arts (rather than a endless list of names, such as xblahX123 in online signature petitions, or a forum disfigured by senseless rage and profanity), and secondly because the index is so high on all search engines, it's already something that people might hear about and come to wiki to hear more about.

The only reason we can't fit it in properly, is the same reason the Heading "Depictions of ancient Persians" seems so ridiculously out of place for an article about a movie.

A heading for Reception and a heading for Controversy would best divide the concepts discussed here. A topic like "Depictions of ancient Persians" would be classified much better this way, though I disagree with the structure of that topic anyways. This way we can show the readers all the controversies of the movie including in a categorized manner.

Anyways, that's my idea. hope it's helpful.
