This article is an unorganized grab bag of information and imbedded lists. It needs some significant cleanup to remove what appears to be copyright violations, and irrelevant information. -- Whpq 16:50, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

I agree with the above. Also, please don't remove the copyedit sign. It is there to let others know that this article needs work. Maybe someone will help out. Thanks. Sirtrebuchet 00:16, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] References, formatting

Could the editors adding information please refrain from just adding immense unformatted lists of names to the article? For all notable people, you should format the text to be readable, and especially include proper references. At the moment there are no real references, simply giving a list of names of publications (or whatever those are) isn't quite enough. I just now removed the important personalities section completely, it was pretty hopeless to begin formatting. -Aryoc 07:46, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

Lists of names of books somewhere in the article are not proper references... Could whoever who adds them please read the Wikipedia help section? -Aryoc 08:17, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Repeated adding of important personalities text

Please don't add it in again. Comment here if you feel that is should be added as it is. In my opinion it needs heavy copyediting before it is reintroduced into the article. -Aryoc 11:30, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 'cleanup'

sorry, i forgot to mention why i put the tag there, my stupid mistake. almost all of the bolding should go. only the subject of the article, in the lead paragraph, needs to be in bold. names certainly to not get bolded otherwise. it does make it more difficult to read. for the rest, many of the terms & peoples names can also be linked instead.  ⇒ bsnowball  10:02, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

I just removed some of the insane bolding and other formatting that made no sense. I did some other copy editing as well but gave up; this thing is unfixably garbled. An expert needs to just wipe it out and start from scratch.
As it is, the article includes statements like this:
"7,000 BC : The empty lake called Sati Saris by the Aryans, then after one million year BC this name changed..."
...which, seriously, wtf. None of it makes any sense. Jessicapierce 22:50, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Removed the copy-edit tag until the article has been seriously re-written ! thisisace 00:47, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
Why not tag with {{rewrite}} then? BrokenSphereMsg me 01:01, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sarrara Abbasi

I sincerely appreciate to this efforts for designing the Bakote Website.... I think you ignore a large populated community of Circle Bakote i.e., Sarrara Abbasi, they are residing in 4 Union Concils of Circle Bakote (Pattan Kalan, Kokmong, Boi & Dalola). History and other references shows that Akbar Ghai Khan had 3 sons Khundar Khan(Dhond), Sarrar Khan & Tanoli Khan. Tanoli community are residing in West of Abbottabad. (Notable persons of the areas from British Rulers were Malik Faqir Khan, Sardar Khan,Qalandar Khan & Sardar Pir Khan etc. Presently Lt. Gen. Sabir, ex-Core Cdr. Gujranwala and Crickter Yasir Hameed are belong to Sarrara Abbasi Community.
