This is a list of Provincial Templates used by WikiProject Iran.
edit

Note: Every province now has its own separate geo-stub template, although most of them lead into the main Iran geography stubs category. For a list of these templates, see the top of Category:Iran geography stubs. When there are sufficient stubs (60 or more) on any individual province, a separate geo-stub category will be established for it (any enquiries on this should go to Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting).
