Talk:Shalimar Gardens, Lahore

Spelling
What's this "Shalamar" misspelling? It's always "Shalimar" in English. --Wetman 14:58, 9 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * What's with your hostile attitude? Take a chill pill. Shalamar is how the signs posted at the actual site refer to the gardens. When you enter the garden, a UNESCO World heritage sign reads Shalamar & not Shalimar gardens. Although, I don't understand what's the big fuss about it, anyway? Who the bloody hell cares if there's an i or an a in Shalamar? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.251.135.126 (talk) 22:30, 13 July 2005 (UTC)

Meaning of the Name
It would be nice if someone could add the meaning of the name without getting side-tracked into arguments! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 152.216.11.5 (talk) 20:27, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

3 Shalimars?
A contributor to Kashmir is claiming there are 3 Shalimar Gardens. According to him, the Shalimar mentioned in the Kashmir article is not the Shalimar at Lahore.--AI 10:18, 30 May 2005 (UTC)

NPOV, writing style
"In all these pictures below, not a single fountain can be seen running because the water supply lines to the garden were deliberately broken in 1999, merely to widen a road close to the garden."

I am changing this line partly because it is a POV and partly because it is non-encyclopaedic in its writing style. (some time later...) ... and I am going to tidy up the whole thing because the language is generally clunky. Polocrunch 14:24, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Aerial Photograph
It would be sweet if someone could upload a free aerial photograph of the garden to give some understanding of the scope of how big'n'beautiful this wonderful ancient site really is. Anyone?! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.251.135.126 (talk) 23:54, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
