Caspian region

The article talks about a link from the Caspian Sea to the Straits of Hormuz. At a glance this looks like some Romney geography, since the Caspian Sea is north of Iran, bordering neither China nor Pakistan. What the source actually says is "Caspian region", but I think they mean something broader than the Caspian Depression ... maybe. And it says it "improves existing links" to the landlocked region. In short, it's not a very good source, making a brief allusion to something that really could use a better explanation. Wnt (talk) 12:01, 22 April 2015 (UTC)

I am assuming by Caspian Sea, it is referring to Central Asia which lies north to Pakistan, while Straits of Hormuz is a reference to the Persian Gulf which lies southwest of Pakistan's coast. So it is basically discussing the potential connection between Central Asia and the Gulf region. Mar4d (talk) 12:32, 22 April 2015 (UTC)

Map needed

A map showing the proposed route would really add to this article. JoltColaOfEvil (talk) 00:35, 23 April 2015 (UTC)

Totally agree. If I understand the above template correctly, our request should be visible to the cartographically-skilled section of the Misplaced Pages community. 82.70.49.110 (talk) 11:07, 24 April 2015 (UTC)

Map issue

  • Map has been removed as it was showing "Indian administered Kashmir" as "Indian occupied Kashmir" as such terms like "Pakistan Occupied Kashmir" and "Indian Occupied Kashmir" are not be used on Misplaced Pages articles. --Human3015 Say Hey!! • 14:22, 22 May 2015 (UTC)

Central Alignment

The portion on Central Alignment should be expanded. Otherwise it is a mere stub and should be included in the "Other projects" section of CPEC roadway projects. Willard84 (talk) 22:06, 1 April 2016 (UTC)

Motorway tables

A user has been repeatedly inserting motorway tables from the Pakistani Motorways wiki page. The table is not relevant to CPEC in its form since it includes numerous projects not part of CPEC such as the Northern Bypass/M-10 near Karachi which have never been mentioned as part of CPEC at all.

M1/M2/M3 have already been completed and are not part of CPEC either. M7 is not part of CPEC either.66.194.2.2 (talk) 20:00, 5 April 2016 (UTC)

Weasel word insertion

contributor Kautilya3 is repeatedly inserting weasel words in his/her edits regarding Baloch nationalist opposition to the project. The author not only uses the word "Punjabi dominated" government, but also uses words like "miniscule portion" and "internal colony" simply because it was written by some Indian author in a book. Such weasel wording is not permitted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 163.40.114.55 (talk) 22:04, 13 May 2016 (UTC)

They are all phrases used in the source. Moreover, there is nothing WP:WEASEL about them. They are terms with reasonably precise meaning. On the other hand, you have been edit-warring, repeatedly deleting well-sourced content based on your personal opinions. This is no good. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 23:15, 13 May 2016 (UTC)
