Proven oil reserves

I am sorry to have had to undo your edits on the proven oil reserves in Afghanistan, because you evidently made them in all honesty and good faith. But the figures you entered as proven reserves were also obviously not supported by the reference you cited. "Proven", also known as "proved" oil reserves, must be demonstrated by strict criteria, with a high degree of certainty. The US Geological Survey publication you cited wrote: “The field was estimated to have reserves of 1.8 billion barrels.” "Estimated" might mean that these are "probable reserves", but does not mean that they are "proven reserves". Unless a reliable source actually says "proven" or "proved" reserves, we should not assume that the reserves are proven.

As for the proven reserves in Bangladesh, you are absolutely right. I have gone back and corrected the figure to 28 million BO, and I thank you for pointing out the error.

Please do not be discouraged by having a few of your edits undone. Over the years, I have had many of my edits undone, some rightly, some wrongly. I hope that you continue to contribute your knowledge to Misplaced Pages. Regards, Plazak (talk) 05:01, 25 December 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for your response on my Talk Page. I realize that you sincerely believe in your edits, but I cannot understand their basis. Let's take them nation by nation:

Your principal source for Afghanistan is a USGS publication with the following passage:

Petroleum.—The Afghan Ministry of Mines announced the discovery of an oil deposit in a triangle between Balkh, Hairatan, and Shuburghan in the northern part of the country. The field was estimated to have reserves of 1.8 billion barrels. An oil tender process for the Kashkari Block would take place in July or August 2010; a bidding round for a large block in the Afghan-Tajik Basin was scheduled for 2011 (Oil & Gas Journal, 2010). The Government awarded a 6-month crude oil contract for the Angot field in Sar-e-Pul Province to a domestic company, Ghazanfar Neft Gas. The Angot field was among a handful of (5) developed fields in the Amu Darya Basin, which straddles Afghanistan and Turkmenistan. The Afghan side of the basin has an estimated 80 million barrels (Mbbl) of PROVEN RESERVES. The nearby Afghan-Tajik Basin could hold as much as 1,500 Mbbl of crude oil. When the wells at Angot started production in 2011, the field was expected to produce 800 barrels per day. If the short-term contract arrangement proves successful, the Government would issue a new tender of a production-sharing contract in the spring of 2011 for extraction at Angot and the four other developed fields. Tapping the crude oil reserves could help start weaning Afghanistan’s dependence on foreign aid from the United States and other donors (Londono, 2010).

I have put in bold capitals the one mention I found of proven reserves (80 million) in your own cited source. If you see any other statement in the above about proven reserves, please point it out to me.

As for Yemen, you cite the CIA World Factbook, which has the following in its list:

30 United Kingdom 3,122,000,000 1 January 2013 est.

31 Yemen 3,000,000,000 1 January 2013 est.

32 Argentina 2,805,000,000 1 January 2013 est.

You also cite the US EIA energy summary for Yemen, which contains the following, under "Yemen Summary Energy Statistics:

Oil (million barrels)

Proved reserves,__Total oil supply,__Total petroleum consumption,__Reserves-to-production ratio

2013__________2012__________2012__________2012

3,000.0__________57.3__________50.1__________52.4

Both sources above give Yemen proved reserves of your lower figure of 3 billion barrels, but I found no mention of your upper figure of 4 billion barrels. Where does that come from?

As for Bangladesh, as I noted above in my last post, I agree with you, and I changed it back to 28 million barrels.

I have no wish to minimize the proven reserves of Yemen, Afghanistan, or any other country. It means nothing to me. My only concern is the accuracy of this article. Possible Reserves, Probable Reserves, and Proven Reserves are different things. Please provide reliable citations for your changes, and I will gladly concede the argument. Thank you.

Thanks plazak you have gave more information

Ancient India

Your post to my talk page says part of Afghanistan says " Eastern parts of Afghanistan was historically part of the indian subcontinent and do you have proof that Afghanistan was part of it". That's a bit hard to understand, but our article on the Indian subcontinent says Pakistan was part of it. You really need to start providing WP:edit summaries. I'll check on this, but meanwhile I'm letting you know below about our policy on reverts. Dougweller (talk) 06:27, 25 December 2013 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at Ancient India shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Hello, I'm Smsarmad. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa without thoroughly explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Misplaced Pages with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry: I restored the removed content. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks!
