==Liaquat Ali Khan==
I have greatly improved the article regarding ] and have asked for a peer review for the article. I have tagged all the images and have wikified and also provided numerous source citations. Recently it recieve a "B" rating from wikipedia Biography portal. So I ask you to review and give me suggestion so we can improve it.

==Government & Politics==
There is a lot of unnecessary information in this section, making it long and unorganized. Current events do not belong in this section. If anyone is up for cleaning this section up, take a look at other "government & politics" sections on WP first to see what I'm talking about. Thanks. ] 01:20, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

==Actor politicians?==
Hi, are there any articles on Misplaced Pages about Pakistani actor-politicians? If there are any, you may want to add the ] to such articles. Thanks, --] 06:10, 24 November 2005 (UTC)

== Featured Articles Collaborations ==

Does anyone have any interest in doing collaboration efforts in order to turn articles in featured articles? It looks like the ] article will soon be featured and there are several Pakistan related articles that are not far from being featured as well. ] 05:31, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

:I would be interested in collaboration as I note this noticeboard seems a little neglected. ] 06:02, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

::Off the top of my head, I know there are several articles that are close to featured article status. ], ], and ] all are extensive articles that greatly cover their respective topics. Personally, I would want to make the latter featured due to its international prominence in the news. Though more people probably know less about the military and history of Pakistan, more people would probably be interested in reading a full article about the earthquake. Incidently, the military and the earthquake articles have already been through a FAC so there will be, hopefully, less obstacles once those issues are addressed. I'd like to hear if anyone else has any additonal thoughts, whether on these particular articles, or another article not addressed. ] 14:03, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

== Portal:Pakistan Ready to use ! ==

I have just got the ] up and running and it is ready to use, I will continue updating it with articles and images as the weeks go on. Last Friday was WEEK ONE as i posted the first ariticle and image for the portal and I shall change the article and image this friday 24 March 2006, so if you have any ideas let me know.

'''Some things that need to be sorted;'''

* This noticeboard is in no condition to be used. I think it needs to be rewritten and reader friendly. We need more collaborations and wikiprojects as their is a lot of sorting out to be done. Lots of articles are almost featured articles e.g. ], ] that could be reviewed by an external user to check grammer and tenses.

* We need to put more awareness of the Portal and noticeboard so we can attract more users that may have alot background knowledge on Pakistan.
]
* We need more templates, look at the following styles used on the Indian noticeboard, maybe someone can make some similiar ones for Pakistan, with colours of gold, silver, white and dark green to represent the national and political flags;


* We have a new Pakistan Wiki-moniker, that can be changed to create specific monikers for people working on Pakistan article; e.g. A person working on economic articles may like to add a Rupee (RS) sign to the Wiki-moniker etc..

Lets get going !! ] 06:03 23 March 2006 (UTC)

== Defence Housing Authority ==

Could someone please look at ]? I have no idea what parts are true and just need cleaning and wikifying, and what parts are completely made up. Thanks. --] <sup>]</sup> 12:15, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

== NPOV map of India ==

Hi! I've made a hi-res SVG ] and have put it up as a featured picture candidate on ]. I've tried to make the map as neutral as possible encompassing each country's claim and administration. If you have any comments on it please let me know on ]. Thanks and regards, ] ] 06:27, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

== Jinnah ==

Great job with the organization guys, keep it up. I have one important request to make. Why are we letting some indians get away with calling Jinnah controversial in his Misplaced Pages article?? Surely that can be mentioned later than the first paragraph.

Is there anything untrue about the following:

Jinnah is celebrated as a great leader in Pakistan where the people revere him as the hero who helped fulfill their centuries-long aspiration of having a separate state for the Muslims of the Subcontinent. Critics, mostly Indian, who view the ] as a great tragedy often criticise Jinnah because of his highly influential role in the creation of ].

If not, then why do the Indians keep cutting it out? Also, compare that to Gaandi's page...look how flowery it is

Remember people, without Jinnah there is no Pakistan or India let alone Bangladesh!!<small>—The preceding ] comment was added by ] (] • ]) {{{2|}}}.</small><!-- -->

== Mass communication ==

Please see ]. Some of these student essays could probably do with some help. -- ] 15:13, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

== Articles on Northern Pakistan ==

See this set of placemarks:

How about a collaboration on the places mentioned here that have no articles on wikipedia? Because all the placemarks show everything around a town or a village or a peak, we could start by adding the location, the district and the surroundings of the subject. Once we have articles, others who know more about the places will start adding to it. Otherwise, one is very reluctant to start a new page because one doesn't know much about it. Like if you know an interesting bit about ] but it's a non-existing page, it's unlikely that you'd create a new article on it, if you get what I mean... ] 21:14, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

== AfD ==

] is on AfD. Looks an obvious delete unless someone cleans it up. Do you guys have any interest in reviving ] (actually, it was never alive) ? ] (]) 02:46, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

== "India" link ==

Has anyone noticed that the page's first "India" link goes to the page "raccoon"? (I wonder how that happened?!) Fix this now.

== ] ==

Hi All - please weigh-in on this important discussion. ] 05:54, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

== India -> India + Pakistan + Bangladesh ==

There is a ] going on related to India before and after 1947. Following is statement which gives you idea, please read whole discussion before editing:


'''India after 1947 consists of three countries, Pakistan, India and Bangladesh. When we use word India, in articles, refereeing to whole India, links are such that they bring us to present day India (Republic of India), reducing size of pre-1947 India considerably. Is it possible that when we refer to pre-1947 India we use a term which encompasses whole India not just present day India? Please comment.'''
This is ridiculous.India was no more of a country pre-1947 than Pakistan.Indicating that pre-British south Asia was "India" is like indicating that olden day east Asia was "China" Ive discussed this too many times before.] 06:33, 3 December 2006 (UTC)Nadirali

== Evolution in Pakistan (would be useful for ] ==

A number of editors seem recall reading that either evolution was banned from universities in Pakistan or that it was officially not taught. However, attempts to find a source for the statement have failed. Assistance by editors who know more about the Pakistani situation or have more knowledge about where to look for sources would be appreciated. ] 03:37, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
