[edit] Edit request for Flag from 98.225.193.150 (talk) 16:39, 20 February 2011 (UTC)

{{edit semi-protected}}

The flag is that of the National Conference political party and not of the State of Jammu & Kashmir. Please remove this flag as representing the geographical region. 98.225.193.150 (talk) 16:39, 20 February 2011 (UTC)

Not done: No, it's not. A search of both the political party and the region show that the description of the picture is incorrect; I'm investigating it right now, but it looks like someone recently falsely changed the description on Commons. Qwyrxian (talk) 01:40, 28 February 2011 (UTC)

[edit] Removal of contents in spite of sources provided as irrelevenat

Hi, the sources and contents mention history of Kashmir valley. How is that irrelevant? I think this is high time people get out of mentality that history began with Alaxander and otherwise before invasions pagan lived on trees. Thisthat2011 (talk) 08:21, 14 April 2011 (UTC)

This article is neither about the Kashmir valley nor about the historical region of Kashmir (which has a separate article). Its scope is only restricted to the modern (post-1947) political entity. The information that was deleted is undue as it is beyond the scope of this article. Separate articles exist for Kashmir and History of Kashmir; perhaps the additions would be more appropriate there.

If this article is for "the modern (post-1947) political entity" the information about Mughal Emperor Akbar, First Anglo-Sikh War, etc. should be removed.--UplinkAnsh (talk) 11:15, 17 April 2011 (UTC)
Agreed—the information about Akbar etc. will probably have to go. However, the content about the first AS War and the former princely state could be retained, since they pertain to the history of the period immediately prior to the current political entity (in order to avoid abruptness and provide context). The rest of the stuff ought to be mentioned in detail on the History of Kashmir page. BTW, you seem to have restored the text again instead of removing further irrelevant content—could you please clarify as to why you did that? Regards, SBC-YPR (talk) 17:37, 20 April 2011 (UTC)

Well, it's fine then, we could remove the history which is not immediately connected to the perent entity of J&K. Well I had waited 3-4 days for your reply beyond which I thought you might have agreed to the point and were no longer interested in replying. Anyways, you could remove data as already discussed. --UplinkAnsh (talk) 04:26, 21 April 2011 (UTC)

[edit] Incorrect text of UN Security Council Resolution on Jammu and Kashmir

The article incorrectly quotes the UN security Council Resolution on Kashmir. The first article of the first UN tresolution requires the Pakistan remove its regular and irregular forces which have enterd Jammu and Kashmir. The removal of Indian forces is not required by the UN resolution. Please correct this text in the main article.Chibber (talk)chibber —Preceding undated comment added 21:40, 11 November 2011 (UTC).


[edit] NPOV of J & K Map

The words 'Pakistan' which appears even on the the 'Pakistan Occupied Kashmir' / 'Azad Kashmir' cannot be tolerated even by Wikipedia's NPOV standards, as it requires opposing views to be listed. Further the words 'Pakistan Occupied Kashmir' is missing, while 'Azad Kashmir' is present. Rectify immediately, or delete image till it is corrected.
