"He preceded Shaharyar Khan as the head of the board's ad-hoc committee, following Khan's resignation" edit

Do you mean succeeded? I'm unfamiliar with the man, but under the context it suggests you mean after and not before. Cheers. AllynJ 22:26, 17 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

  • Yes, I did mean to say he came after Shahrayar Khan, so I stand corrected. - thanks for pointing it out AllynJ -- Zainub 13:18, 18 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Page move edit

I've created redirect pages for Nasim Ashraf and Dr. Nasim Ashraf; I'm just wondering whether this page should be moved to "Nasim Ashraf" permanently. The references in the articles use both "Naseem" and "Nasim", but I think a majority use "Nasim". What do you think? - Ozzykhan 14:52, 24 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

  • I used Naseem because that is how I personally spell it and have seen it being spelled that way at Cricinfo, which is the website I have used for most of the references. --Zainub 10:45, 28 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Removed GA edit

Article is written in a very POV manner, much unencyclopedic and dramatic negative tone like "like his predecessor, Ashraf's promises have served as all but lip service and the constitution to date remains no where to be seen" and the whole page is resembling an attack page almost. Also, it seems to be heavily based on the opinion of the sources which are heavily the opinion of two pundits from Cricinfo:Osman S and Kamran Abbasi, and not much in the way of facts and historical occurrences. Also it seems that the author of the page User:Zainubrazvi has used his own blogs for the sources, which are not acceptable at all, especially in a BLP.
