Thanks for uploading Image:APCTalha.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{GFDL}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Yeah there is a URL there, but it doesn't work and as far as I can tell from the wayback machine it's been a domain park since 2003 at least...Sherool (talk) 14:26, 1 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't put the correct URL address

here it is

www.pakistanidefence.com

I made the changes in the image as well.

Please stop adding nonsense to Wikipedia. It is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you. — ₀₉₁₈^BRIAN • 2006-02-3 03:14

Hello Mercenary2k! I went through the images you recently uploaded to Wikipedia and realised that you were blindly adding the ((CopyrightedFreeUse}} tag to those images without finding out whether the copyright holder allows anyone to use or not. One example of this is Image:Pak8.jpg. The image was upoaded from Time.com. Usage of any material from this site without a permission to do so is a very serious copyright violation. I'll take up the matter with a Wikipedia administrator who will go through all the images you've uploaded and take necessary action. Please do not upload images to Wikipedia if you are not sure of their copyright status. This is for your own safety. Please see Online Copyright Infringement Liability Limitation Act --Deepak|वार्ता 07:23, 4 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please see Wikipedia:Confirmation of permission. Once you receive a permission letter, you should forward it to the Wikimedia PR department. Regarding List of countries by number of active troops please provide a source for the figures. According to World Almanac, Pakistani military has a strength of 620000 while it's paramilitary is 288000 strong. Thanks and happy editing --Deepak|वार्ता 00:13, 5 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• It seems that the website www.skins.be does not explicitly have any copyright or copyleft notice whatsoever. Wikipedia needs specific information on this status. Just because it is "free" does not mean that there is complete 100 percent unrestricted use of it. For example, something claimed under the GFDL or some versions of the Creative Commons license must always cite every single person that worked on that image, text, content, etc. I have also seen some web sites or services that provide free use of its stuff but only if it is "only used for non-commerical use". Because of how Wikipedia is distributed to others, it needs the license information on whether or not these images can be distributed freely, both to parties interested in both commerical and non-commerical use.

Hi. I am a bot, and I am writing to you with a request. I would like to ask you, if possible, to use edit summaries a bit more often when you contribute. The reason an edit summary is important is because it allows your fellow contributors to understand what you changed; you can think of it as the "Subject:" line in an email. For your information, your current edit summary usage is 22% for major edits and 8% for minor edits. (Based on the last 150 major and 90 minor edits in the article namespace.)

This is just a suggestion, and I hope that I did not appear impolite. You do not need to reply to this message, but if you would like to give me feedback, you can do so at the feedback page. Thank you, and happy edits, Mathbot 05:03, 25 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Soory I opposed, I found a couple of grammatical errors in the article. Also with Somalia piece it would read better if it referred to the battle directly instead of its current method, ie rescue of US personel during the Battle. It will benefit from peer review I like the article as initailly stated, it's just that during the second read i noticed these little things Gnangarra 16:09, 4 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

More than likely this won't be featured as there are too many subsections with just one sentence, and the lead is too short. Apparently it needs copyediting as well. I will try to copyedit it soon. In the future, I would not mind copyediting Pakistan-related articles, so if need be, send me a message and I'll gladly help out. Pepsidrinka 21:07, 4 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Guys for helping out. It took me about 2 weeks to write up this article. Ya I read your comments, and I understand the problems. I will correct them. But If you wanna help you are more than welcome to. The main help that I need is for you guys to read what I have written and point out any grammer errors, sentence structure problems and any other things.

Hi came back for another read, I like the table for the UN Missions it does look a little cramped. The Yom Kippa war(I cant spell) reads as a Pakistan Air Force personnel voluntary action, not an official government sanctioned involvement. Is it in the right place in an article on the History of Pakistan Army?

The image of the 1st Nuclear test can be fair use within this article. I think you just need to add a comment within the article as required, required format is shown by the fair use page. Suggest you write something like this (or use if you want to correct my spelling)

This image is used in this article under fair use conditions because it was broadcasted in the public arena through media outlets, actual still image used was created by and obtained from Dei Spiegal. Source of the original footage is most likely from within the Pakistan Military who conducted the test. It's release by the military at the time would have been for propoganda purposes specifically directed at India. As this article is entirerly about the History of the Pakistan Army the first detonation of a nuclear weapon is a significant historical moment.

Hope this helps, I'll visit again for another read it is facinating Gnangarra 15:28, 6 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I need support in editing the page for Ahmed Omar Saeed Sheikh from Pakistani-Wikipedians. The page concludes Pakistans link to 9/11 using information from Indian press and much information in that page is without proper references. The page says that ISI gives money to Ahmed Omar Saeed Sheikh and Sheikh then wired the money to Atta. I have checked some of the references on that page and information in the references is different from what is mentioned in it. I will appreciate any help because I have very less free time these days... Faisal 16:58, 10 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Mercenary2k,

I was wondering if you have seen the following page, its a place where alot of people work as a team to progress and work together on articles and images of Wikipedia.

The Pakistani community for sometime has been very dormant, as there were not many people here to write articles related to Pakistan. If you go the following "Project page" you will see a new community has been formed, where I think alot of us should asign tasks and work more as a community than individually. Here's the link;

Wikipedia:Notice board for Pakistan-related topics. Do take a look at all the other communities the way they are working to improve articles and promote their communities.

I think its about time we all do the same. As you may notice everthing is just been laid out, so now its our turn to fill the gaps. Do pass the word on to other Pakistanis and people working on Pakistani articles.

Many thanks, Fast track 08 May 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:Pak.gif. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me, or ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. — Rebelguys2 ^talk 21:27, 18 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This is actually a classic picture that is usually shown in most WW2 books, and on the front cover. I doubt you'll find a better one. By the way, I like the photos you have added for the Soviet campaign. I did get rid of some of the maps, as they are unimportant, and just plain boring. I notice you come from Pakistan. It is always a shame that you are "lumped in" with India in WW2. I'm sure that Pakistan (well that part of old India) was heavily involved too. Wallie 19:17, 10 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have left a message for you at this link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Kargil_War#Casuality_Estimates about the casualities. it is proper to discuss and arrive at a solutin rather than go into a reverts war.

Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia under the three-revert rule, which states that nobody may revert a single page more than three times in 24 hours.

Your recent contribution(s) to Wikipedia are very much appreciated. However, you did not provide references or sources for your information. Keeping Wikipedia accurate and verifiable is very important, and as you might be aware there is currently a drive to improve the quality of Wikipedia by encouraging editors to cite the sources they used when adding content. If sources are left unreferenced, it may count as original research, which is not allowed. Can you provide in the article specific references to any books, articles, websites or other reliable sources that will allow people to verify the content in the article? You can use a citation method listed at inline citations that best suits each article. Thanks! Croctotheface 16:21, 30 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading Image:Indianpows.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

Hello Mercenary. I've addressed your concern about the images, and have added five fair use images with proper rationale. I've also added the Jay Leno info, which I knew about before but didn't know was particularly important.

Since you've been editing WWII articles, I suggest you can add anything you know on British India in World War II. India here refers not to present day India but the Indian subcontinent, including Pakistan etc. I've added some photos, if you have any info or photos you can add them and improve this article. Thanks. Idleguy 05:07, 4 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Multan Regiment a stub. If you know anything more you can add to this new article. Idleguy 18:39, 7 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! I'm not entirely sure where, exactly, you grabbed my username from when looking for help with improving this article (I assume it must be from the British military history task force of WP:MILHIST). I have added some categories to the article, and wikilinked some of the units in the order of battle, but I'm afraid that this particular event falls a little outside my area of expertise.

If I might make a suggestion, I would turn the listed order of battle into prose - something like "The British forces consisted of several regular army units, including.................... There were also a number of Indian units, including.................." It's not necessary by any mens, but the list is short enough that prose would probably be acceptable. Also, it's not neccessary to write "The 4th Hussars, now the Queen's Royal Hussars" - you can use the following code [[The Queen's Royal Hussars|The 4th Hussars]] which will display on the page as The 4th Hussars, while providing a link to the page for the modern unit which (in most case) will give the lineage.

If I can provide any additional help, feel free to ask on my talk page. Carom 05:39, 8 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hey man,

Just wanted to compliment you on your work to the Battle of Ghazni article. It looks really nice. I haven't had a chance for more than the most cursory of looks, as I'm just returning from a rather lengthy and unannounced wikibreak, but I must say I'm quite impressed.

Hi I've noticed your good work with the WWII article and I was hoping we could figure this out between ourselves. Many of these battlebox warriors seem to be more interested in stinking up the talk page than in helping out with the article. I think it's safe to ignore them.

a) You don't have to waste your time debating this. If it's too much for you to listen to me please just stay out of the way. I do respect your opinion and for you to chime on their side pretty much wrecks my case.

b) We have been making great progress on the body of the article lately. I think we have much more to do, but this is the first time that I've ever seen this article is actually starting to improve.

c) I've listed my arguments re:France on the talk page. Add to that the fact that if you crack almost any book about WWII, France is unavoidable. Anything inconsistent with this is just OR. I'm sure you have some perspective on this being reasonably well-read on the subject, but a lot of these jokers don't seem to have a clue about even the basic facts of the war.

d) We agree on 90% of this stuff. I have said I would support the infobox your way for the time being. Alternatively, I could put it up my way and you could choose to remain silent or support me. Either way this doesn't have to be deadlock because I am willing to cooperate. Haber 13:55, 16 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Why isn't 99 being discussed when the article says India won three wars against Pakistan after it's independence. That does not include 47, which was essentially an independence-related war. By the way, your edits are unattributed. You didn't answer my above question. I'm fairly new to Wikipedia and have been very selective in my edits.

Your recent comments indicate that while you have been on Wikipedia for longer than me. You are not fully aware of it's policies. Your source states that Prabhakaran wanted Gandhi killed, that does not have relation to great power. The source must be attributed to India's quest for great powerdom, or it becomes original research, which is against Wikipedia policy. Also I see that you have written about how the page is bad because it does not include historical powers like the Roman Empire. This indicates you have a lack of knowledge on great powers, as it would be anachronistic to attribute historical powers to a term which was never used before the 1800s. Your comments are unattributed and are non-compliant with wikipolicy. Also, you show double standards. You edited to claim that two of India's wars with Pakistan were ceasefires while India lost a war to China. The war against China also ended in a ceasefire, implying double standards on your behalf. Please consider these comments. Traing 01:17, 25 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
