Planned changes[edit]

I think splitting the section on "observed and expected effects" between climate effects and effects on human life, economy and society is a good idea, considering how vast the two are. Either that or having two sections for each change, similar to how there are separate IPCC reports for physical science basis and impacts on society. More than happy to develop this idea before implementing it, since its will require a lot of work.Schezwan (talk) 08:35, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Schezwan, please check the new structure. I think what you had proposed has now been implemented. EMsmile (talk) 11:39, 3 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Suggested changes to headings and structure[edit]

I suggest to change the headings and structure of this article to be in line with the template that has been proposed here for all articles of the nature "Climate change in Country X": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Climate_change/Style_guide (see also discussion on that page's talk page). Anyone has any objections? If not, who's got time to give it a go? I am slowly working away at this for all the countries but would love some collaborators.EMsmile (talk) 01:25, 24 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Done. EMsmile (talk) 11:38, 3 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Schezwan, I have reverted your changes to the heading levels as per our style guide, see here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Climate_change/Style_guide EMsmile (talk) 13:08, 3 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Understood!Schezwan (talk) 16:29, 8 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Climate change section[edit]

At the climate change section of the entry about the climate of Pakistan (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Climate_of_Pakistan) the 2nd and 3rd paragraphs are factually incorrect and contradictory with the main entry about climate change in Pakistan where we can see the same issue in the introductory paragraph. Can you check it please?GeorgeegroeG1989 (talk) 09:16, 3 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like someone has fixed by excerpting Chidgk1 (talk) 08:51, 1 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
