Talk:Dera Ghazi Khan

promotional material and other clutter
Some lunatic by the name of SARDAR RIAZ ANWER KHAN QAISRANI or SHAH NAWAZ QAISRANI is going around adding his name as a prominent personality to all articles related to Dera Ghazi Khan and the irony is that he cant even spell! I've reverted the page back.


 * Performed a partial cleanup []. Please do not add unsourced or promotional material to the article. These things are against Wikipedia policies like WP:NOR,WP:RS, WP:NOT and bring a bad name to Wikipedia. If you have any objections to my edit, please discuss it here.- Civilized education talk  16:01, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

Cleanup
I cleaned up the article, corrected almost all of the grammar and spelling, removed various duplicate sections and unnecessary advertising, and rewrote sections of it. However, it still needs more citations, and certain parts of it are still written in an advertisement-like style (which is only a minor issue). -Branabus 22:37, 12 March 2012 (UTC)

D of Dera missing
In the Urdu script, the D of Dera Ghazi Khan is not shown although it is in the source text. This is a technical problem I cannot correct. Could someone do this? Thanks! Curryfranke (talk) 10:10, 17 June 2013 (UTC)

Cleanup, January 2017
I've just cleaned up the grammar in § Location and corrected a geographical statement. The text formerly read
 * Dera Ghazi Khan is a mid-country city located on the junction of all the four provinces of Pakistan i.e. Sindh, Punjab, Balochistan and Khyber Pukhtunkhwa. Due to its location, it has been once in the list of prospective capitals of Pakistan. It has beautiful and unique landscape including the Indus River, Green Fields, Pachad Desert and the Sulemaan Mountains.


 * Issues
 * 1) "The junction of all the four provinces of Pakistan" implies that there is a point where all four come together, so that point is on the borders of all the provinces, like the quadripoint in the Four Corners region of the southwestern United States. There is no such point. Dera Ghazi Khan is in Punjab, near the border of Balochistan, roughly south of the tripoint (three-way meeting point) of Punjab, Balochistan and the Federally Administrated Tribal Areas (Punjab borders Khyber Pukhtunkhwa a bit north of that), and roughly north of the tripoint of Punjab, Balochistan, and Singh.
 * 2) Is "Green Fields" a place name, as the capitalization implies? Or does it just mean that there are beautiful green fields in or near Dera Ghazi Khan (in which case it should be lowercased)?
