[edit] Cleaned up

This article was a complete mess because of numerous additions by anon's based on personal webpages. Wikipedia is not the place to put up POV-ish nonsense like "secret/hidden histories". If this is genuine information then please find a reliable source preferably scholarly. Please do not restore the previous version. Green Giant 13:36, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

Green Giant, May I remind you that this is a discussion page. I don't know who pasted this work in the main article but you have right to clean up that page as original research is understandably unacceptable and I will have to redo all the research to get the proper footnotes. But this is the correct page for POV. You will NOT remove this or I will demand Citations of every 'fact' in the text of EVERY article that you have posted in this encyclopedia. Furthermore, an academic journal would be a better source then a thousand Citations, and my friend, a student at Oxford is working on all the Princely States of Pakistan for his PhD. He will eventually replace the lame article you have with a more factual one. However, in the mean time I am placing my own research with its ever expanding bibliography, to counteract the effect of POV-ish bullshit like artificial histories that have merely relied on -God only knows what- to suffocate the truth. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Arsalanrkazi (talk • contribs) - 21:51, October 24, 2007

I have moved all of the "secret history" to the subpage listed above, so it does not impede the use of this discussion page in future. This is the method used in many articles for proposed changes to content. Green Giant (talk) 22:29, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

To Arsalan - when your friend publishes something, I will be more than happy to see it included here. Green Giant (talk) 22:29, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
