Speedy deletion nomination of Punjab Highway Department

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Punjab Highway Department requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://www.punjab.gov.pk/communication_works_highways_department. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Khyber train safari a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Please discuss and get consensus at Talk:Khyber train safari before moving. Sjö (talk) 14:30, 10 September 2016 (UTC)

Hi again! As of now, there are two almost very similar articles, Khyber train safari and Khyber Steam Safari. The articles mix two topics: the railway line (Khyber Pass Railway) and a private train that for some time ran on the railway (Khyber Steam Safari). May I suggest that the topics are split to separate articles? Khyber Pass Railway is what is known as a redirect, i.e. an almost empty page that only directs you to another page. I suggest that you write about the history and current status of the railway line and create an article at the title Khyber Pass Railway. The information about the train that is now found in the two articles above could be collected in Khyber Steam Safari, with information about the 1990's - 2006 entrerprise as well as the proposed tourist train. For licensing reasons, as well as preserving the credits of the editors who wrote the original article, the article about the train has to be written at Khyber train safari and then moved to Khyber Steam Safari. Also, there needs to be some reliable sources about the proposed train in order to verify the facts in the article, per Wikipedia:Verifiability. What do you think?

Railway station

You are inserting railway station location info in wrong field of template. Like in Dadu railway station. You are inserting this after Services, which is not suitable for this.--Ameen Akbar (talk) 10:40, 14 September 2016 (UTC)

Please stop using edit summaries to attack others

Please calm down . Thanks. Doug Weller talk 05:22, 16 September 2016 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at Baloch people shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
