Stay safe?

[edit]

I have the general sense that this is a dangerous area in terms of the risk of being caught up in fighting or bombings. Am I incorrect? Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:14, 10 September 2013 (UTC)Reply

You're right Ikan. Other than that, there are plenty of Pakistani articles needs their stay safe section to be updated or written, but unfortunately I won't be able to do it alone. --Saqib (talk) 06:37, 10 September 2013 (UTC)Reply
I'm certainly not trying to find extra work for you, Saqib! Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:50, 10 September 2013 (UTC)Reply
I know Ikan. I was just telling you. I would like to do them but its not an easy task. --Saqib (talk) 06:59, 10 September 2013 (UTC)Reply

Centre?

[edit]

An unregistered user added what I interpret as that Dera Ghazi Khan means "centre of Pakistan" and something that I interpret as explaining that title. The name however seems to come from the person Ghazi Khan. The map in Wikipedia suggests the city is in the middle of Punjab, so it is unclear how "located at the junction of all four provinces of Pakistan" can be true, but that language has been here for some time. I now revert the last edits, as they are badly worded, but somebody should explain the background of that description. What are "the pull daat" and the "Pakistani chowk"? --LPfi (talk) 10:03, 16 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
