The lead that is currently in the article has been in place for nearly 15 years. History if Pakistan is the history of the region that is today Pakistan. In other words, "ancient Pakistan" is an apt term. The old notion that Pakistan exists only after 1947 was settled long ago in many discussions both on this talk page and in the History of India and History of South Asia pages. It was decided that History of India is the history of the region that is today the Republic of India; if is UNDUE to include Mohenjo-daro or Gandhara or Taxila beyond a cursory mention in a history of India; the same applies, for example, to Dacca ] and the deindustrialization of Bengal. It is mostly a part of the history of Bangladesh. It is also UNDUE to claim the region of Pakistan in the realms of all sorts of Indian kingdoms the evidence of whose sovereignty in Pakistan is meagre or nonexistent. ]] 14:24, 1 October 2022 (UTC) |

It should be the other way around: you should edit from the '''''latest version''''', taking into account the edits from the last 6 months, and then trim as necessary.

It is a little ridiculous when the Maurya Empire section in the History of Pakistan has twice the geographical extent in its map and is described in double the prose needed in the lead of the ] page.

The article had not only become bloated with 14,500 words, but also unduly weighted toward that early medieval (pre-Islamic) period, thereby also giving an opportunity for editors to spam this history of Pakistan page with Hindu- or Buddhist-related images of sculpture, reliefs, or coins—images that would never appear in the history of India or South Asia. There were also some Islamic regional kingdoms whose bloat was not so extensive.]] 23:38, 1 October 2022 (UTC) |

::{{ping|User:Vanamonde93}}I don't think this is a case of ], in which one bold new addition by an editor would be challenged, removed, and then require consensus and discussion on the Talk Page. Here, in effect, ] is blanket-removing the last 6 months of edits made by '''numerous different editors''', so as to return the article to '''his last version of 6 months before''', as a preliminary to making new edits of his own. He is '''''indiscriminately''''' removing any edits that are not his own, good or bad, on the pretext that there is "too much WP:UNDUE material in the recent edits" , without making the effort to distinguish regular maintenance or improvement edits from the "recent" edits he considers to be undue. I cannot see this as anything other than ] and a rather uncollaborative and lazy approach to editing, as he is in effect wiping out all contributions that are not the result of his own actions. I doubt that this kind of behaviour, which disregards all contributions by fellow editors, is condoned by Misplaced Pages policy.

*::Hello], Not sure this is what you were asking, but let me attempt an answer. |
|
|
*:#] == ], where "==" means congruent in scope. Similarly ] starts with the paleolithic. |
|
|
*:#] redirects to ] (it ''redirects'' as there was the interregnum of the ] with George VI and Elizabeth II as its head until 1956; <small> the latter's coronation in 1953 shown much during the recent TV coverage showed her bearing allegiance as among other things Queen of Pakistan </small>; similarly, ] redirects to ], India's interregnum being shorter (1947 to 1950). |
|
|
*:#As you point out or imply, the post-1947 bit in the ] is token, whereas that in the ] is substantial. The reason for this is that in the early years after my arrival on WP both traditional India-POV editors and traditional Pakistan-POV editors were dickering with it, and denying Pakistan its ancient heritage, each for their own POV. So, the post-1947 bit has retained its current bulk and focus. I agree, it needs to be vastly reduced. |
|
|
*:#The history of Pakistan in the sources has included ancient history for many decades, witness ] and ]'s, ''Rise of civilization in India and Pakistan'', Cambridge, 1982, the classic on the subject. ]'s journal, ''Ancient Pakistan'' founded in 1964, is found in even in the in New Delhi |
|
|
*:#A related problem is ]. It was discovered and excavated by the French archaeologists ] and ] in 1974, long after the ]. No Indian archaeologist has excavated there, yet it is the basis of all pre-history on the subcontinent, the South Asian Neolithic from which the Indus Civilization sprouted (though the ASI has been busy after the Partition in divining ancient history in every shard of pottery found in India above the Vindhyas). |
|
|
*:#A third problem is that the ASI for the first 50 years after the Partition did not allow foreign archaeologists to excavate in India (because of "colonial" associations and suchlike sensitivities.) Pakistan, on the other hand, whose official history began after Mhd bin Qasim's arrival on Sind's vaunted shores in the eighth century CE, was all to happy to pass the Indus hot potato to the western archeologists, such as ], ], ], ] who all excavated there and whose work gave the notion of ancient Pakistan the sanction it needed in the sources. I mean they couldn't very well excavate there, rely on the courtesies of the government there, and call their report "History of ancient India." |
|
|
*:#Archaeologists sometimes use "ancient" and "South Asia" as in ''Ancient South Asian World'', a middle-school/high-school book published by OUP and authored by Kenoyer and Kimberly Heuston, or ]'s ''Archaeology of Seafaring in Ancient South Asia'', CUP, 2003., but there is no appetite for the all encompassing history to be South Asian on Misplaced Pages, the least not on WP India. |

:The page's prose size was 14,371 words. The most obscure Indian kingdoms which are not mentioned anywhere in ] make their appearance here. I have removed the UNDUE additions and brought the size down to 11,507 words. It needs to be reduced further to 10,000 words. The size of the ] page, for example, is 10,662 words ]] 17:05, 1 October 2022 (UTC) |

{{ping|User:पाटलिपुत्र}}, {{ping|User:Fowler&fowler}}, {{ping|User:Sutyarashi}} Fowler reverted some recent edits because of "too much WP:UNDUE material". My question is why my contributions got deleted. I believe I literally improved the page with my contributions. Could someone explain to me how my edits were wrong? ] (]) 14:30, 1 October 2022 (UTC) |
