A fact from this article was featured on Wikipedia's Main Page in the On this day section on March 1, 2019 and March 1, 2024.

[ed]

An anon deleted the existing article and replaced it with a chronology that doesn't fit WP standards, and looked copyvio-ish as well. So I reverted it. However, the chronology probably had some worthwhile info in it, so someone may want to take a look at it in the history and merge some of that into the existing article.

Needs work

This article really requires a thorough rewrite. I chopped it up into more manageable sections, although I'm not really happy with where it is right now. It needs a lot of work.

Currently, the article has no references, and it is in dire need of some.

And if anyone happens across this article that speaks Kurdish, or whatever his local language was, getting his name down in the local language would be helpful to the article.Pepsi2786 22:59, 28 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The section on the split between the Iraqi Kurds and Qasim is grossly oversimplified, and doesn't deal with the complex issues regarding Barzani's KDP, Communism, pan-Arabism, etc. Rpine75 01:43, 5 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Dates of his death do not match. The opening states March 1, 1979. Later in the article it says he passed at Georgetown Hospital on March 3rd, 1979 Anonymous 09:00, 23 February 2009 (EST)

Rewrite

As the article stands currently, it is a result of a hodgepodge of edits based on second-hand sources. There are little references to be found, which is necessary for a biographical article. I am going to get a few books in the coming days relating to Kurdish history- such as "A Modern History of the Kurds", among others, in order to get information more appropriate for an encyclopedic format. Unfortunately Biographies of Barzani are difficult to come by. If anyone else also wants to pitch in, feel free- but we need sources. MercZ (talk) 06:50, 29 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

New picture

Barzani's picture is pixelated, I added a new and better picture. --Alan Genco (talk) 22:24, 30 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
