The listing of peaks could perhaps be changed; it's not clear what the criteria for inclusion are. I also added a section dealing with subranges, some of whose pages exist and the rest I will create soon. -- Spireguy 17:13, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Disputed border

Actually, the Pakistan/China border is disputed by India, which claims that Pakistan in 1963 had no right to cede "India's" land to China. --User:DLinth

While the Pakistan/China border is not disputed, the Pakistan/India border and the India/Pakistan border are. So it still might make sense to put back in a reference to that somehow. But it's not a big deal. -- Spireguy 14:22, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Can you identify these?

Please take a look at these unidentified peaks at http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Unidentified_Karakoram_peaks. If you recognize any of these, please update their description and category and notify me. Thanks! Waqas.usman 23:09, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Chinese scale model

I added an ABC News reference about the scale model, which quotes reputable sources, so hopefully that satisfies the concern about credibility. -- Spireguy 19:53, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Map needed

Map showing where this is vis-a-vis the countries is needed. Badagnani (talk) 20:03, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
