 * Not many sources on the subject so these might be the best you can find.
 * Mineral resources of Azad Kashmir and Hazara (Pakistan): special emphasis on Bagnotar-Kala Pani (Abbottabad, Hazara) new coalfield

Provincial election articles
The provincial election articles are currently a bit messy, with no consistent style or formatting for the results tables. I am planning to format them all using the same results table that is used for the National Assembly results tables (i.e. this). This excludes the "independents joined" column that appears in a few provincial election articles – I think it is unclear to readers what this means (this is quite a Pakistan-specific thing), it gives a misleading impression that parties won more seats than they did, and I think it makes the tables a bit of a mess. When there are cases of independents joining parties after the elections, this should be mentioned in the prose instead (as is done for National Assembly articles). Hopefully this isn't controversial. Cheers, Number   5  7  03:15, 19 May 2024 (UTC)

Developing Countries WikiContest
Starting this July, we will see a new contest on the scene - the Developing Countries WikiContest (WP:DCWC)! Think of it as a WikiCup but only for articles and media on developing countries.

Competitors may submit GAs, GTs, FAs, FTs, FLs, FPs, and DYK and ITN entries from/on developing countries to gain points and climb the leaderboard. Points are also awarded to those who review GAs, FAs and FLs.

Pakistan is listed as a developing country for the purposes of this contest and articles related to it are eligible to be submitted, so I encourage everyone here to sign up and compete with editors from around the world to create high-quality content!

Append your name to the DCWC signup page today!

Coke Studio
There have been a lot of creations and updated related to Coke Studios over the last couple months, one of which is Coke Studio Pakistan. While the main program seems notable, I am questioning the individual seasons. There is List of Coke Studio Pakistan episodes which has a brief summary of each season as well as performers, but then there are pages for each season including Coke Studio Pakistan season 15, Coke Studio Pakistan season 14, and so on. I am asking for feedback on the project page here as a lot of the references seem unreliable, churnalism, paid-for, or do not coverage the seasons themselves in-depth. I did not want to do a mass deletion recommend or redirects without first seeing if anyone has feedback. Also note this is related to other Coke Studio pages such as Coke Studio Africa, Coke Studio (Indian TV program), Coke Studio Bangla, Coke Studio Bel 3arabi, Coke Studio Philippines, many of which also have individual episode pages (Coke Studio Bangla season 1, Coke Studio Bangla season 2, Coke Studio Bangla season 3). Coke Studio @ MTV is a redirect yet there are individual season that have pages (see Coke Studio @ MTV season 3). Pinging who seems to be doing most of the work on these pages. Also notifying other related WikiProjects to opine in the conversation. CNMall41 (talk) 21:48, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
 * CNMall41, You're spot on. I also encountered some pages that I believe may not meet the GNG and felt the urge to take them to AFD. However, I was reluctant to open another front as some users have already expressed annoyance with my previous nominations related to Pakistani TV shows. — Saqib (talk) 09:35, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
 * I think many should be merged as a few I checked would not meet the guidelines for an individual season. However, I would still like input from anyone in the space so as not to cause disruption. A lot of time redirects are simply reverted so we wind up at AfD anyways. --CNMall41 (talk) 02:51, 14 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Another concern is that some of these were heavily edited by socks and LOUTSOCKing such as Coke Studio Pakistan season 5. Seems like an attempt to promote the show which is not the purpose of Wikipedia. --CNMall41 (talk) 03:47, 14 June 2024 (UTC)
 * I agree with you on this. In fact, I've been working on the main page of Coke Studio @ MTV to merge all the pages of Coke Studio @ MTV. I can do the same with Coke Studio Bangla if you want. As for Coke Studio Pakistan, I think we should find a way to fix that, considering it is airing its 15th season. Counsel1111 (talk) 09:50, 14 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Counsel1111, Please also address the COI concerns I've raised here. — Saqib (talk) 10:11, 14 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Having 15 seasons does not make each season notable. It may help contribute to the notability of the main Coke Studio Pakistan page, but the individual seasons do no appear notable. Also curious why you are expanding the same pages you say you are meaning to redirect. --CNMall41 (talk) 22:21, 14 June 2024 (UTC)
 * You also stated in March on your talk page that you were going to refrain from making any related edits to these pages yet have been steadily doing so since. At this point maybe the best thing would be to draftify these pages given the COI concern raised. They can then go through the full vetting process and either moved to mainspace or declined and redirects created. --CNMall41 (talk) 22:23, 14 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Agree with you. The pages should be draftified. Saqib (talk) 22:26, 14 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Oh, well, guess you two have it all figured out already! No need for my two cents then. Counsel1111 (talk) 09:51, 15 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Counsel1111, Figured out already what? Care to explain please. — Saqib (talk) 10:09, 15 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Counsel1111, please assume good faith here and discussion. I have which is why I pinged you. I wanted to make sure to discuss with everyone and receive your input as well. You are welcome to opine in the discussion and provide any feedback. It was better to do so here than to have a bunch of redirects created or deletion discussions started. They may be unnecessary but better to discuss than cause a disruption. --CNMall41 (talk) 19:25, 15 June 2024 (UTC)
