Lal Masjid siege


I'm nominating this article for featured article because I have extensively worked on it. Updated it, corrected information, added citations. Article is fairly stable and thus worthy of this nomination. Mercenary2k (talk) 23:49, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

 * Cite templates are not a requirement of WP:WIAFA; consistently formatted citations are. Sandy Georgia  (Talk) 01:36, 7 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Looking at pure Google hits, "Siege of the Lal Masjid" and "Siege of Lal Masjid" seem to be more common than the present title (and are the more typical way of naming sieges, besides; cf. WP:MILMOS). Is there any particular reason why the current one was chosen?  If it's arbitrary, I'd suggest moving the article to the more common variant. Kirill 02:02, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
