Well done - you are really getting to grips with lots of locations. I hope you don't mind but I have edited the Location Infobox details in your article on Lahore District to point to the appropriate Wikipedia articles. The present day details should really link to articles about the modern district, the modern state and the modern country rather than articles in the FibiWiki which are always going to be looking backwards to the British period. Of coure, these links could be repeated in an External section as well but I haven't done this. If you are happy with this, do you think you can start doing this with your other articles? Thank you. | Well done - you are really getting to grips with lots of locations.

Picture
Hi Rabia,
Thank you for all the excellent Pakistan geography edits you've been making recently. I saw you uploaded a new picture today. So that we can make sure it is used correctly by others, can I ask you to fill out the blank Image Origin and License template that I have pasted on to the image page here. You can read some of the requirements for uploading images here just in case you need to check anything. Let me know if you need a hand, Sarah 11:33, 21 October 2009 (PDT)
Location Infobox
Hi Rabia,
Well done - you are really getting to grips with lots of locations. I hope you don't mind but I have edited the Location Infobox details in your article on Lahore District to point to the appropriate Wikipedia articles. The present day details should really link to articles about the modern district, the modern state and the modern country rather than articles in the FibiWiki which are always going to be looking backwards to the British period. Of coure, these links could be repeated in an External section as well but I haven't done this. If you are happy with this, do you think you can start doing this with your other articles? Thank you.

More on Lacation
Apologies for deleting the separate reference to Lahore District - I didn't know that the district was split in two. I see that this has happened to other districts as well. Would it be a good idea to mention this in the History section e.g. "On 1 July 1975, Lahore District was split into . . ."?
Also, I suggested that the links to Punjab and to Pakistan in the Present Day Details section should be to the Wikipedia articles rather than internal links within the FibiWiki. I did this in the Lahore article so all you need to do is to copy and paste these when you create or edit other locations.
Thank you for all your help and sorry to nag! HughWilding 19:08, 4 November 2009 (PST)
