Did you know... that Afghanistan's vineyards cover an area larger than do Austria's despite alcohol being officially forbidden?

Background

The article does not mention anything before the recent years - Afghanistan has existed for a while. I would ask to expand the article on that before putting it on the main page. Polentarion Talk 19:26, 26 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Troups partying

It is no style for an article. Background is troups not being able to fullfill their duty. Thats what my changes describe. Afghanistan had a lack of good partys for a while. Polentarion Talk 17:02, 27 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Such words are allowed if they have reliable source, but they should be written as "quotation". --Human3015^TALK 17:33, 27 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

allowing is one side, thinking its good another ;) Point is as well that ISAF is finished for now, so we should not describe that in present tense. Polentarion Talk 17:34, 27 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You yourself said that we should mention all things including history. Mughals are finished but you are writing about them.

? Corrected my grammar, sorry ;) They don't get the difference between Nato and Isaf, so no wonder about the flabby language use at all. I havent found anything about the last kings vineyards, sorry. Polentarion Talk 19:05, 27 November 2015 (UTC)of[reply]

Date format

We are inconsistent in the citations. I don't have a preference, but they should be made consistent, either D-M-Y or M-D-Y. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 13:31, 6 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

New source material

I found the following article by Pajhwok from 2015, covering alcohol sales, consumption, contraband, smuggle and production in Afghanistan including some legal aspects. Maybe someone wants to make use of it? https://www.pajhwok.com/en/2015/06/11/alcohol-production-smuggling-sale-and-consumption --Daniel-tbs (talk) 08:17, 22 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
