Beauties and PR
If you were lucky enough to watch that episode on Nadia Khan's show on Geo TV where Sonia Ahmed and Mahleej Sarkari were invited, you'd know that the Miss Pakistan World pageant is really the hype. At least, when it comes to controversies, the organiser know where to bring the PR campaign. Their serious POV edits which have been proven to be made by the organisers and associates of the pageant are under debate at the article's deletion debate.
Follow-up on the last issue
In the last issue, we discussed about the sectarian issues that Pakistani articles were prone to. For an update, an advocate of the Shi'a faith and its prominent inclusion into the articles, LahoreKid has been banned for an indefinite period. In the process, a citation review project page was created for providing editors with a third-opinion on vague references.
For a in-depth coverage, read the talks here. Some news issues will be addressed shortly and new activities like contests and quizzes would be announced shortly as well.
Talking of sects...
I don't want to sound like a separatist, if I say that for the past few weeks the highest number of edits on anything related to Pakistan have been on articles that concerned Baluchistan. From major editions to the article on Quetta to the 1935 Balochistan earthquake tragedy.
In other news: It is now important for editors to look into the logistics section for gaining or providing support for various things in the article such as graphics or copy-editing. So, if you need copy-editing of an article, or your article lacks a picture, please consult at this page.
i-post
Email to Postal Mail
A convenient free postal mail service which can deliver email messages all over Pakistan. Peoples can now use their email to send letters giving you another route to communicate with others who are not connected to the Internet in Pakistan.
In recent past Internet and e-mail have revolutionized the world of communications. But those who do not have easy access to Internet and e-mail facilities could not get benefits of this facility. In its endeavour to make the benefits of e-mail available to a common man, Al Tayyeb Group has introduced i-post service. By i-post all those who do not have computer or do not have access to Internet can send e-mail by Post Office or receive e-mail through a postman. Those who have access to Internet can also send i-post to those who do not have access to Internet.
Wikipedia should have an article on this social service & must be a part of WikiProject Pakistan.Please comments. --SaqibChaudhry (talk) 09:22, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

Structure of the Pakistan Army
Hi; I've had to delete your commander changes because you changed the names without changing the reference that was attached to each name, and gave no source. Feel free to reinsert the names once you have a source. Cheers Buckshot06(prof) 10:24, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
- Hey, great and quick work Razzsic. In your various work here, would you mind keeping an eye out for good sources on the Army's independent brigades, and adding them to the same page in the right section - that'd be good. Thanks, Buckshot06(prof) 17:52, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
- Great work Razzic. I'd help, but I'm no expert on the Pakistani Army. I will keep an eye out, but honestly I don't expect to be able to help much. Best regards, Buckshot06(prof) 18:18, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
Hi
I have no idea how many pakistanis I have approached for help. I'm planning to expand the Nirbhay missile article in accordance to the Babur missile. Just require some general infomation of which planes, shipes if any have been custimised so that they can fire the Babur. In indian articles finding this is very easy and after going through many of the articles of the pakistani ships or aircraft its seems none of them can actually launch the babur. If i'm wrong pl. correct me. Is it that for the time being it can only be luanched by TEL. Thanks in advance for your time. If u would like to do the same just go the india and weapons of mass destruction article I have added all the launch platforms of the indian ships there. And i would like to do something similar with the pakistani version and with improving the nirbhay article. i was about to add Babur on the SLCM list but then thought the better of it. Is it sub launched. Thanks in advance. The thing is unlike on the indian article there seems to be a lot of IP address on the pakistani articles. If u dont know or cannot find out no problemo but can u tell me some other person who would know. Thanks yet again.Enthusiast10 (talk) 16:24, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

I notice that this category you created is unpopulated (empty). In other words, no Wikipedia pages belong to it. If it remains unpopulated for four days, it may be deleted, without discussion, in accordance with Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#C1. I'm notifying you in case you wish to (re-)populate it by adding [[Category:Finance Secretaries of Pakistan]] to articles/categories that belong in it.
I blanked the category page. This will not, in itself, cause the category to be deleted. It serves to document (in the page history) that the category was empty at the time of blanking and also to alert other watchers that the category is in jeopardy. You are welcome to revert the blanking if you wish. However, doing so will not prevent deletion if the category remains empty.
If you created the category in error, or it is no longer needed, you can speed up the deletion process by tagging it with {{db-author}}.
--Stepheng3 (talk) 21:51, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
For every category you create, you should specify parent categories to which it belongs. You can do this by listing the parents near the bottom of the page, each enclosed in double brackets like so:
[[Category:Government of Pakistan]] [[Category:Economy of Pakistan]]
Contact me if you have questions about this. Best regards, --Stepheng3 (talk) 03:19, 24 February 2009 (UTC)
Numbering System
Hi, I noticed you were from Pakistan, and I wanted to know which numbering system you used. Is it the lakh-crore-arawb system or the million-brazillion system?--Rsrikanth05 (talk) 14:29, 26 March 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks. So do cheques in Pakistan also figure in millions? --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 15:20, 26 March 2009 (UTC)
Largest tank battle...
Hello Razzsic.
I have a question for you. It looks like there are conflicting statements here in Wikipedia in two articles. Both of these articles claim that their battle was the largest tank battle since World War Two.
One is the Battle of the Chinese Farm and the other is the Battle of Chawinda. Obviously the Battle of Chawinda took place in 1965, while the other one took place in 1973.
Note: the Chinese Farms itself does not claim to be the largest tank battle, but it speaks of a battle in that same war that is claimed to be the largest tank battle since WWII.
My question is, do you have a reliable source that confirms that the Battle of Chawinda is indeed the largest tank battle since WWII? I would also appreciate if you can provide me a source stating the exact figures of tanks participating in the battle.
Thank you very much for your time. Sherif9282 (talk) 05:45, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
You know, you could at the very least reply to me saying you don't have the sources or such, or direct me to another user who does have the sources I need. Thanks. Sherif9282 (talk) 08:23, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for the reply. Cheers --Sherif9282 (talk) 11:58, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

Chief of Air Staff (Pakistan)
Thanks. I couldn't find any supporting evidence one way or the other, so I guessed! (Wrongly!!) Cheers, Pdfpdf (talk) 01:15, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
- I like you idea though, I would try it to apply it to the Chief of Army Staff (Pakistan) and Chief of Naval Staff (Pakistan) pages (if you haven't done so already!). Cheers!. Razzsic (talk) 04:47, 13 October 2009 (UTC)

'Superceded' in list of Pakistani Army generals
Would you mind adding a note to the page on what'superceded' means? I'd consider myself a bit on an expert on how the British Commonwealth army system works, and I don't understand the reference, so it might help clarify matters for others as well. Thanks for your hard work on this page and others. Buckshot06(prof) 07:55, 24 October 2009 (UTC)
