Editorial summary

The public source identifies “Pireh Sorkh-e Pain” as village in Iran. This brief keeps that definition visible, then builds a research path around Pireh, Sorkh-e and Pain.

The current lead gives the account dated anchors—2006—that can be checked directly. The selected authority fields contribute no independent date. Its value is orientation rather than verdict, with Pireh, Sorkh-e and Pain providing the first useful test.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

A short description can identify a subject without explaining its stakes. For “Pireh Sorkh-e Pain”, the useful work is to connect “village in Iran” to the records capable of establishing context and consequence.

Evidence profile

Place names and jurisdictional language are key evidence: both can reveal earlier catalogue descriptions and overlooked record series. The source revision retrieved here is dated Mar 31, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q5835898. Authority coordinates are 30.188, 51.295. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2006.

Critical limits

Modern boundaries and familiar names can conceal earlier jurisdictions or structures that do not align with the present site. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Treat names, boundaries and functions as historically changeable. Maps, plans, inventories and administrative records can clarify what the place meant at different dates.
