| Editorial Policy:
If you feel passionate about something, then write it up, we would like
to publish it.
We accept articles from men and women, experienced and non-experienced
writers, with any nationality.
Writers and artists are not paid, it is a voluntary exercise. However,
once five articles/artworks are published, the author/artist’s profile
and picture will be placed in our writer’s corner section with a
link to his or her private website.
We expect that the writer has thoroughly double-checked and verified the
accuracy of all information in an article before submission. Sources must
be submitted with each article.
We reserve the right to edit articles without the author's prior knowledge/approval.
We are a non-partisan organization and do not publish articles that are
written to promote/disgrace specific political parties or religious convictions.
We do not accept articles for advertising products/organizations/people.
That is what our advertising section is for.
We do not publish anonymous articles.
We do not endorse the views expressed in our articles, we simply find
hem interesting to publish. Further, we would like to publish conflicting
views to present the full dimensions of any story. Once something is published
on Irandokht.com, it will not be removed.
Writing style:
We are looking for articles that:
• express personal viewpoints in a unique way
