[edit] Khairpur State

• Delete this page because it is an attempt to avoid scrutiny on a similarily-named page. User:Arsalanrkazi originally posted what appeared to be a copy-and-paste job with extensive POV sections on the State of Khayrpur page. I reverted the changes and asked the user to moderate the tone and avoid POV edits. Instead the user went and created an alternate page called Khairpur State on which s/he has pasted the POV sections together with the infobox which links the article to a series called Historical regions of Pakistan. The infobox was copied verbatim because the name at the top still says State of Khayrpur and the links still point to the State of Khayrpur page. I can only conclude that this user has a personal agenda which they wish to promote but there are plenty of free websites for this purpose. Green Giant 01:44, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
• Redirect to State of Khayrpur. Green Giant is right that this is an inappropriate fork, but it does get 129 Google hits and seems to be a plausible spelling/misspelling. --Allen 02:11, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

• Comment The editor has now added a paragraph at the top identifying himself and his interest in the article. It has become an attempt to publish original research. Green Giant 00:35, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
• Comment Kindly Check out the site www.khairpursindh.org and click the history section. I have been blamed of 'copyright violation'. A visit to this site would clear me of atleast this allegation. User:Arsalanrkazi
