Philately WikiProject welcome

Welcome to the Philately WikiProject that you joined recently. Hopefully you can contribute a lot as there are few of us who actively edit philatelic topics. Don't forget to check out the Portal too. If you need any advise or help please ask.

I see that you have been making lots of Pakistan postage stamp lists with very few links to other articles. There is a stamp catalogue project separate from Wikipedia that would be a better place for lists of stamp by years. Lists are not highly encouraged these days even though many do exist but it is encyclopaedic articles that are needed. We could really do with the article Postage stamps and postal history of Pakistan that is still missing from Wikipedia. You might have the knowledge and reference books to write such an article. I spent about 3 months working on Postage stamps of Ireland and it is an article that can be used as an examples of what to aspire to. Cheers ww2censor 14:16, 24 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of John Ellerton Stocks

This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

All the RCD links you added to joint issue and also on your draft Pakistan stamps page only go to a dab page. What does this abbreviation mean? I don't see anything on the dab page that looks right. Tell me and I will fix it. Thanks ww2censor (talk) 17:32, 5 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

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)[reply]

Sameera Aziz

Hi, I noticed you did extensive work in articles relating to Urdu fiction, and I was wondering if you might have an opinion on the "first lady of Urdu writing" in Saudi Arabia, Sameera Aziz. I have no familiarity with the topic, but was trying to clean the article up so it could be judged fairly. If you have any expertise on the topic, it would be much appreciated. Cheers! --OliverTwisted (Talk) (Stuff) 06:48, 3 October 2009 (UTC) + [reply]
