Hi NostinAdrek Please remove the Tags from this article as I have already provided the citations from secondary sources which are verifiable. The article is notable and concerns a tribe of the Hindu Kush.  Cheers Intothefire (talk) 18:49, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

Hi Intothefire,

I've removed the tags, and I've reworded the material. I've not changed anything - I just rewrote what was there. It needed rewording because the English was difficult to understand. Please check what I wrote to make sure it makes sense to you. NostinAdrek (talk) 23:10, 20 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi NostinAdrek

I had recorded the exact quote from the book and which is why there were Inverted commas. Now if those are removed as you have done ...it opens the field for vandals to mess up the quote, and I suspect there is no way for good samiratan vandal patrollers on wikipedia to figure this out. Loads of my cited content is vandalled this and other ways by determined vandals usually annonymous. That being said I leave it to your better judjment. Anyway thanks for contributing to improving Wikipedia. Cheers Intothefire (talk) 08:35, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

Merger Proposal
It is proposed that the article Shina people should be merged in to this article. What do you think?. ScitDei talk 09:40, 7 June 2013 (UTC)

Nope. Live with your shame. -Anonymous — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:5B0:2BFF:3EF0:0:0:0:3A (talk) 03:44, 8 October 2013 (UTC)

They both clearly refer to the same people, more usually called Shina in modern ethnographic literature. A single article per ethnic group is normal practice. Also, 'Shin of Hindukush' is an odd title: standard WP naming convention for articles of this type would suggest that this one be merged into Shina people and not the other way around.
