I cannot find any sources for this, even looking under the spelling Gordion. Searching the book referenced using Google books gave me nothing either. All I can find is that it was where Alexander and Parmenion met up and seems to have been used as a garrison for a short while. dougweller (talk) 10:40, 14 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
After taking a look at the general situation, I recommend at the very least to ban Ariobarza from article namespace (main namespace), to spare some knowledgeable editors the time that double-checking his every edit would entail. - In my opinion, using the process of writing Wikipedia articles for teaching basic concepts of research to persons who lack such education/habilities would be too much of a drain on our already very limited resources (particularly in areas like Persian history, where making articles comply with our policies is already time-consuming). Our aim is creating an encyclopedia, not running a school. - Ev (talk) 16:20, 17 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Factoring out the comments from this single user, and comments on those comments, since they are not strictly statements about whether or not to delete the article. --Alvestrand (talk) 13:22, 17 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
"The (Persian) garrison stayed there until the last months of 334 BCE, when the Macedonian commander Parmenion captured the city. During the winter, his king Alexander the Great joined him, traditionally cutting the Gordian Knot in the palace."
There is even one reference in this article, why don't you guys check that out. Cheers.--Ariobarza (talk) 18:47, 14 November 2008 (UTC)Ariobaerza talk[reply]
