Major rivers of Pakistan

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

We have List of rivers of Pakistan to provide better navigation of the topic...also there is no proper criteria of what is a 'major' river and what is a 'minor' river... Farjad 0322 (talk&#124;sign&#124;contribs) 14:13, 16 September 2010 (UTC)


 * Comment: Instead of deleting why not redirect and add some content of the above article in the List of rivers of Pakistan article. Linguistic  Geek  14:16, 16 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Such redirects are not useful. Who would write 'Major rivers of Pakistan' rather than just 'Rivers of Pakistan' in the search command bar. We have Water resources management in Pakistan as a detailed info about hydrology (limnology + oceanology) of Pakistan. Farjad 0322 (talk&#124;sign&#124;contribs) 14:26, 16 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Merge any verified information into List of rivers of Pakistan where appropriate. All the significant rivers already have their own articles  and any detailed information should go there   Velella  Velella Talk  14:20, 16 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete as Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. It is not clear what "major river" means. Armbrust  Talk  Contribs  14:21, 16 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Merge and Comment: major rivers of pakistan does not sound like a list.think merging is better.we should not be deleting pages randomly is my opinion. Linguistic  Geek  16:30, 16 September 2010 (UTC)


 * Rename it to "Rivers in Pakistan" :The article doesn't site any reference and external links, by supplying references and external links and renaming it to the said name there is no need for it deletion.The other article "List of rivers in Pakistan" is based on the "List" and doesn't provide any combined and detailed information of the rivers of Pakistan.

 * If you have to improve the article...Why do not we merge it with 'Geography of Pakistan' (as Wolfview said below) with a new section like 'Rivers' or 'River system' or 'Hydrology' or 'Limnology' or whatever. We can redirect the 'Rivers of/in Pakistan' to that new section. Farjad 0322 (talk&#124;sign&#124;contribs) 20:19, 16 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete because, actually, the fact of the rivers now being within the borders of the modern nation of Pakistan (as important as they must be to the people of that nation) does not make them a group about which an article should be written. A list of rivers and articles on each river is enough, and then an article on the geography of Pakistan. Wolfview (talk) 19:24, 16 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Merge to List of rivers of Pakistan, where it would be good material to make the list more substantial. -- Cycl o pia talk  00:06, 17 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Merge with List of rivers of Pakistan, per above suggestions. Mar4d (talk) 08:30, 17 September 2010 (UTC)
