- People checking names in the Iran record
- Worth noticing
- It explicitly warns that a missing name means no source has recorded it—not that the person is safe.
Field notes
Name searches accept Persian or English spellings, and the page says the bot checks the archive’s sourced record, including alternate Latin- and Persian-script forms. Results can include age, town, date, evidence strength, and a memorial or case-page link; the displayed sample includes a note that two or more independent lists support the record. The Telegram instructions say submitted photos or documents are visible only to the team.
