Thanks for your edits on the Hyderabad, Sindh page

We had discussing with other Wikipedians for quite a while now that the page on Hyderabad needed attention. I feel obliged to tell you that we appreciate even your minor edits on the page. Thank you very much. - Arun Reginald (talk) 17:04, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

With you on the Hyderabad DAB issue
I have made a remark on the Hyderabad DAB redirection issue. Definitely with you on that one. I am in hopes to get hold of all the other people that contributed towards Hyderabad, Sindh. How very strange; I woke up thinking we should have a Requested Move for Hyderabad and there you were ahead of the game. Keep up the good work. ;) Cheers - Arun Reginald (talk) 13:48, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

Birganj

Hi, well done in the Birganj protests. However do you have some more references on this topic. If so, I think a separate article should be created on this issue. Otolemur crassicaudatus (talk) 21:15, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Image:Abbasid Khalifate.png

A tag has been placed on Image:Abbasid Khalifate.png requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I8 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is available as a bit-for-bit identical copy on the Wikimedia Commons under the same name, or all references to the image on Wikipedia have been updated to point to the title used at Commons. Sdrtirs (talk) 11:42, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

original message was

Note, I cropped commons:Image:World 820(1).png but uploaded to en:Image:Abbasid Khalifate.png - subsequently this was uploaded to commons:Image:Abbasid Khalifate.png and the original deleted. Pahari Sahib

MJ Akbar

He is known as MJ Akbar (he is never refered to with his real name), and I believe that this move should be undone.

No content in Category:Union Councils of Balochistan

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Category:Union Councils of Balochistan, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Category:Union Councils of Balochistan has been empty for at least four days, and its only content has been links to parent categories. (CSD C1).

original message was - however the deletion request was withdrawn

Request to move article Astore Valley incomplete

You recently filed a request at Wikipedia:Requested moves to move the page Astore Valley to a different title - however your proposal is either incomplete or has been contested as being controversial. As a result, it has been moved to the incomplete and contested proposals section. Requests that remain incomplete after five days will be removed.

Tabisar

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Tabisar, and it appears to be very similar to another wikipedia page: Gulmiri. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 01:22, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

• You just beat me to removing the CorenSearch tag on Tabisar. Sometimes it does that. FlowerpotmaN·(t) 01:25, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

Re: Prostitution in Pakistan

Along with some other editors, I have tried my best for the article on Prostitution in Pakistan to meet the B-Class criteria. The content in the article is pretty good enough to be listed under the B-Class, I would like it to be more of a GA-Class article. Please take a look at the article and tell me your expert opinion on it. Arun Reginald (talk · contribs) 09:11, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

Assistance needed in shaping policies for/against sectarianism on Pakistani articles

Please care to join the discussion on WP Pakistan about sectarianism in Pakistan-related articles. Your participation may be required as it may manage to make way for some concrete policies for Wikipedia's Pakistan-related articles. Thanks! Arun Reginald (talk · contribs) 06:39, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

Category:Universities in Multan, which you created, has been nominated for deletion, merging, or renaming.

Thank you. – Ka Faraq Gatri (talk) 23:44, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

Not interested - whether or not this cat is deleted, only created it because I had created List of educational institutions in Multan by moving details out of the Multan article. Pahari Sahib 14:47, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

Yeah sure

i think we should create articles for all who user used to be Khan_of_Kalat. Khalidkhoso (talk) 08:10, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

re:Mir Chakar Khan Rind

Yes, dear I saw that it was subcat of Category:Nawabs of Balochistan but not every Balouchi Nawab is from Balouchistan? So i wanted Balouch Peoples to be focused then Nawabs of Balouchistan.what do you suggest? Khalidkhoso (talk) 12:27, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

I'm not quite sure of your reasoning here, the parent cat is Category:Baloch people - are there any non Balochi Nawabs? If so then Category:Nawabs of Balochistan needs to be removed from the parent cat. Pahari Sahib 12:35, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

i am not sure, if there are Non-Balouch nawabs.there are many other nations living in balouchistan too Pashtu(Pathan),Hindustani(Muhajir),Sindhi(Hindu),many more.i need little time to research on it.Khalidkhoso (talk) 09:55, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

Can you please also watch the Pakistan Studies page with revert war. Nawabshahi (talk) 20:41, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the barnstar! I was just playing around with the idea of adding summaries but then realised they really help the topic and make the content more strong and sound. Cheers. Arun Reginald (talk · contribs) 10:38, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

Thanks

Thanks for taking the time to check the Bangladeshi district articles. I agree with your observations that these articles need cleanup.

One small request, when adding an npov tag, please mention what particular thing you consider to be a POV. Otherwise, it is difficult to figure out what you are objecting to.

Thanks. --Ragib (talk) 17:14, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

Okay, will bear this mind :-) I've think I've edited pretty much every Pakistan district article and removed a lot junk - just thought I'd try editing somewhere else for a change. Pahari Sahib 18:00, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

Who are you?

Dear Pahari Sahib,

May I ask who you are? and how you qualify yourself to decide whose origins are from Matore or not. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Myles1999 (talk • contribs) 22:36, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

All I did with the Matore article was to remove people who were born in the UK but I actually agree with your edit, "notable people" sections are usual pointless trivia and pov that add nothing to the article (IMO). Pahari Sahib 00:23, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

1935 Balochistan earthquake

Kindly check my recent edits on the mentioned article. I saw that you had been busy editing it, so I thought of helping you out. Please comment and suggest further sections that need to be added or anything at all actually. I removed the pictures of yours of Bruce Street after the earthquake and used another one that was taken from the same perspective the before picture was taken from. It helps readers develop a perspective of the street. The other picture could be of any other bungalow and would register in the minds of the readers with certainty. I hope you don't mind. Arun Reginald (talk · contribs) 21:06, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

Request for cartography

Since I see you handling almost all Pakistan-related articles, can you give me a list of all the articles that require maps. For instance, the article on Operation Gibraltar badly needs a good map. Please suggest about a hundred or so maps, so that I can be busy developing them over the next week and that the WikiProject Pakistan cartography project might have some credibility to it. You can suggest them one by one as you go. No need to compile a complete list and then tell me. Thanks. Arun Reginald (talk · contribs) 18:08, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

Okay :-) Pahari Sahib 18:10, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

Please add your name to the WP:WikiProject Pakistan/Logistics page so that your work easily be tracked and rewarded accordingly. Just find the suitable jobs you are currently doing for WP Pakistan and feel comfortable at. Thanks. Arun Reginald (talk · contribs) 01:03, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

Please comment on what you think about the article on Miss Pakistan World. Should it be deleted for blatant advertising? I left a note on the WP Pakistan talk page as well. Arun Reginald (talk · contribs) 22:34, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

Pahari Sahib

Thanks for improving the layout of the page I had recently made some contributions to. I would appreciate it if you could be a bit more specific about the referencing issue. I would like to let you know however, that I am extremely busy these days and shall get back to you on whatever it is that needs further discussions when I am free.

Pashtun people

Thank you very much :-). The edits by this particular anonymous IP who has been vanadalizing the image in Pashtun people has been sickening, to say the least. It is crystal clear that he wishes to include his POV into the article. This shouldn't be allowed. Besides, he has been indulging in racism and abuse from the very beginning pulling down Wikipedia to the level of an online forum. It seems he has a deep rooted hatred for Indians, especially Punjabi Hindus. It seems he is under the impression that I am a Punjabi. Anyway, when I approached an administrator, he said that only a range block would work as the user has been frequently changing his IP. Anyway, take care. bye :-) -Ravichandar_{My coffee shop} 17:03, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

Beauties and PR

If you were lucky enough to watch that episode on Nadia Khan's show on Geo TV where Sonia Ahmed and Mahleej Sarkari were invited, you'd know that the Miss Pakistan World pageant is really the hype. At least, when it comes to controversies, the organiser know where to bring the PR campaign. Their serious POV edits which have been proven to be made by the organisers and associates of the pageant are under debate at the article's deletion debate.

Follow-up on the last issue

In the last issue, we discussed about the sectarian issues that Pakistani articles were prone to. For an update, an advocate of the Shi'a faith and its prominent inclusion into the articles, LahoreKid has been banned for an indefinite period. In the process, a citation review project page was created for providing editors with a third-opinion on vague references.

For a in-depth coverage, read the talks here. Some news issues will be addressed shortly and new activities like contests and quizzes would be announced shortly as well.

Talking of sects...

I don't want to sound like a separatist, if I say that for the past few weeks the highest number of edits on anything related to Pakistan have been on articles that concerned Baluchistan. From major editions to the article on Quetta to the 1935 Balochistan earthquake tragedy.

---

In other news: It is now important for editors to look into the logistics section for gaining or providing support for various things in the article such as graphics or copy-editing. So, if you need copy-editing of an article, or your article lacks a picture, please consult at this page.

Mirpur, Pakistan

Hi! Thanks for the external link deletions, I wasn't quite sure what to leave in there and was checking the links out. You have saved me a lot of time. :0) I spotted the reference on your user page about Balochistan, which made me smile. It reminded me that I have a big green cloth covered box containing a large plaque, presented by the 10th Baloch Regiment, which I have never got round to putting on display!

Sallam

Thanks for all that info. I thought you had reservations about the fact that I had only used one reference (even if you don’t I do and am going to add more references soon), so I left you that message. I am used to referencing the Harvard way, but doing it the Vancouver way shouldn’t be a problem. The ref tag stuff is like learning a new language, which I am sure I am going to get used to too.
