{{ping|Ichthyovenator}} Hey Ichthy thoughtthanks for expanding this article. Thought I would help you out a bit;
 
- [[Mithridates I of Parthia]] was the first Arsacid ruler assume the title of shahanshah (take a look at the Coinage and Imperial ideology section). Regular use of the title started under Mithridates II though.
Line 42 ⟶ 44:
- The Hephthalites also laid claims to the shahanshah title during their zenith, perhaps you could add that as well?
 
- Just like the Parthians/Arsacids, neither the Buyids nor Ziyarids were Persian, I would personally swap Persian with Iranian in a lot of places to make it more historically accurate.

- The female variant of shahanshah in pre-Islamic Iran was [[Banbishn|banbishnan banbishn]] if you wanna add something about that. --[[User:HistoryofIran|HistoryofIran]] ([[User talk:HistoryofIran|talk]]) 15:38, 22 February 2019 (UTC)
:Thanks for helping out! I've added the bit about Mithridates I, the pre-Islamic female variant of the title and fixed Iranian/Persian (I think). I couldn't find any source for the Hephtalites using the title themselves (though I did find [https://en.unesco.org/silkroad/sites/silkroad/files/knowledge-bank-article/vol_III%20silk%20road_the%20hephthalite%20empire%20BIS.pdf one] that stated that they sometimes settled Sasanian succession disputes to the title), do you have one? I tried to make the article as thorough and complete as possible, is there anything else missing? [[User:Ichthyovenator|Ichthyovenator]] ([[User talk:Ichthyovenator|talk]]) 18:32, 22 February 2019 (UTC)
 
::Hm nevermind about the Hephthalite thing then. I'll see if I have something else regarding the king of kings title that can be used. EDIT: The Safavids restored the usage of shahanshah, not the Qajars [http://www.iranicaonline.org/articles/iranian-identity-iii-medieval-islamic-period] (mentioned in [[Safavid dynasty]] as well with citations). --[[User:HistoryofIran|HistoryofIran]] ([[User talk:HistoryofIran|talk]]) 01:59, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
 
:::Thanks again! I've added it. Do you know if the dynasties between the Safavids and the Qajars (e.g. the [[Afsharid dynasty|Afsharids]] and the [[Zand dynasty|Zand]]) used "Shahanshah"? I haven't been able to find any references to them doing so but it seems a little bit strange that there would be long periods of time between each of the modern dynasties using it. [[User:Ichthyovenator|Ichthyovenator]] ([[User talk:Ichthyovenator|talk]]) 09:59, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
::::The Zands didn't it seems (their founder even refused to use the title of king), but surely Nader Shah would have I assume? --[[User:HistoryofIran|HistoryofIran]] ([[User talk:HistoryofIran|talk]]) 19:01, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
:::::Yep, looks like Nader Shah adopted it as well, added. [[User:Ichthyovenator|Ichthyovenator]] ([[User talk:Ichthyovenator|talk]]) 20:51, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
 
== Palmyrene ==
 
I suggest adding a section dealing with the Palmyrene usage of the title. Information and sources can be found in the article of [[Odaenathus#King of kings]].--[[User:Attar-Aram syria|Attar-Aram syria]] ([[User talk:Attar-Aram syria|talk]]) 19:50, 3 July 2019 (UTC)
:I've added a section on Palmyra now, thanks for the heads up! [[User:Ichthyovenator|Ichthyovenator]] ([[User talk:Ichthyovenator|talk]]) 16:20, 4 July 2019 (UTC)

== After the end of the Buyid dynasty in 1062 AD, the title of Shahanshah wouldn't be adopted by another Iranian ruler until Ismail I ==
 
{{ping|HistoryofIran}} I find this statement a bit dubious, considering Alparslan minted coin with the title shahanshah, and Uzun Hasan also uses it. What do you think? [[User:Beshogur|Beshogur]] ([[User talk:Beshogur|talk]]) 12:51, 21 May 2021 (UTC)
:They did indeed. Tbf sources regarding this are hard to come by, I only just found out recently. --[[User:HistoryofIran|HistoryofIran]] ([[User talk:HistoryofIran|talk]]) 13:30, 21 May 2021 (UTC)
:If Alp Arslan used the title, Alp Arslan and the Seljuks should be mentioned. I, who wrote much of this, didn't know this so you're of course welcome to change stuff around and add it in. [[User:Ichthyovenator|Ichthyovenator]] ([[User talk:Ichthyovenator|talk]]) 16:45, 22 May 2021 (UTC)
 
== Lugal ==
 
According to [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6H503ULvZcw Aprender IDIOMA SUMERIO ANTIGUO Vocabulario básico LUGAL (𒈗) y símbolos cuneiformes ortográficos], U+12218 𒈘 [[LUGAL]] OVER LUGAL means "king of kings".
Should it be included in the article?
