The Unknowns project has uncovered a big group of profiles using an Alias  - None instead of the usual Unknown - and they contain lots of Persian/Farsi (so I'm told), seem to be about people in Iran? (sample profile noted below - there are dozens of them!!) We need your help to make these profiles searchable in the database. We'd be so grateful for your assistance. Thanks in advance. from Pam Anderson Smith, Team Leader, Unknowns

The profiles are in Persian/Farsi. I'm familiar with some of the ethnic groups and cultural customs in Iran but I can't read Persian (It's called Farsi by native speakers, but Persian for language resources outside of that.) You can see the "FA" on the profile manager's profile.

Thank you for the clarification - I've changed the tags and hope someone will happen by who has that expertise!!
