Edit request on 10 July 2013

[edit]

In the intro, please change

is the 11th President of Pakistan

to

is the 11th and current President of Pakistan

Upon reading the intro sentence, I didn't realize that he was still the president; I thought it was a verb tense error (i.e. should be "was the 11th") in a sentence that the author intended to be similar to sentences such as was the 14th President of the United States. 2001:18E8:2:1020:2471:1719:86D3:F5A6 (talk) 20:35, 10 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sentence in opening paragraph needs more clarity

[edit]

The sentence, "He is the first randi ka backa haram khoor madar chod of the year" is not entirely true since his power was stripped and handed over to the Prime Minister during his tenure. This point has been made later in the article but the above sentence needs to be qualified with this information. Otherwise, the sentence makes it seem like there were no significant events during his presidency. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.10.100.185 (talk) 03:56, 20 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected edit request on 2 August 2017

[edit]

Please add |net_worth = {{PKRConvert|189.6|b|year=2005}} in the personal information of the infobox. It will appear as Rs. 189.6 billion (equivalent to Rs. 960 billion or US$3.3 billion in 2021)

Source is in the Wealth section of the article where this amount is mentioned.

NOTE: To confirm the amount in PKR, Please see the template without year Rs. 189.6 billion (US$660 million) which converts to exact US$ as mentioned in the article with source. Now add year 2005 according to the source which makes it Rs. 189.6 billion (equivalent to Rs. 960 billion or US$3.3 billion in 2021), the amount I requested you to add. And also in Wealth section rewrite wealth ammount using PKRConvert template as written above.--119.160.98.59 (talk) 00:26, 2 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Someone reverted the edit added by Jd22292 per my request. Please add the removed edit again. Here's the revision when it was added and in this edit it was removed.--139.190.118.184 (talk) 00:33, 8 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Ominictionary: Reverting editor in this case. jd22292 (Jalen D. Folf) (talk) 00:35, 8 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@139.190.118.184 (talk), the edit you are requesting that is not notable according to the person's notibility. Mr Zardari is a former President. His notibility come from his political life not from his net worth. In infobox we write only about very notable information about the person. You can check other Politian's page. Net worth have been added in only business man's article as they are famous for their net worth.Ominictionary (talk)

Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. —MRD2014 Talk • Edits 14:26, 8 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
This is the source MRD2014 and it is also present in the Wealth section. It is a notable information as he was named 2nd richest in the country.--139.190.118.184 (talk) 01:02, 9 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Not done: Regardless of source, according to Ominictionary, Mr. Zarfari is NOT notable for his net worth, and no known RS talks about it. jd22292 (Jalen D. Folf) (talk) 01:16, 9 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Jd22292: How is the 2nd richest person in a country not notable for his wealth? He is also the richest Pakistani politician and article also discusses about his wealth. So this information is notable enough for infobox. And it is totally correct to add net worth with a source in a good article.--139.190.118.184 (talk) 06:45, 9 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, I've had enough of this! IP, please accept that this change fails WP:GNG. Ominictionary, thank you for enforcing this. jd22292 (Jalen D. Folf) (talk) 17:01, 9 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Zardari was arrested for corruption in June 2019. He was granted bail in December. As such, it would reflect an update.[1]

 Done Albeit only partly as the BBC article doesn't mention that he was granted bail in December, another source would be necessary for that. RandomCanadian (talk | contribs) 15:28, 15 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected edit request on 4 August 2021 (wrong info in "Spirituality" subsection)

[edit]

Hi in the "Spirituality" subsection it's said Zardari is a Shia, but if you follow the source it's about a Sufi master, nothing about Shi'a, so I think we should replace Shia by Sufi there. Thanks.

 Partly done: The source actually supports neither of those variants, so the subsection has been removed entirely. Actualcpscm (talk) 07:01, 29 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, please go back through the link, Dr Ahmed Rafique Akhtar is a well known Sufi figure in the country, so the link that says Zardari is his disciple implies he's himself Sufi and not Shi'a (as previously written), thanks 2A02:A03F:6504:1700:7027:23CA:905C:63F2 (talk) 18:58, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. You need a citation which specifically says that Zardari is a Sufi. To infer that from his visit is WP:SYNTH, and not allowable. Please do not open this edit request again until you have proper documentation. Thanks, Xan747 (talk) 20:04, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hi many articles on him visiting Sufi shrines but finally I think yeah it's not that clear but perhaps we could bring back the whole subsection + text BUT by taking out the "Sufi" reference ? Basically just to show he's a disciple of Dr Akhtar 2A02:A03F:6504:1700:7027:23CA:905C:63F2 (talk) 06:01, 7 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, there was a subsection called "Spirituality" between "Family" and "Health" subsections (in the "Personal life" section).
I was thus just wondering that if instead of taking it out completely we could just bring it back and rephrase it without infering about Zardari's private faith (Shia or Sufi).
So this is what I want to add in the "Spirituality" section (that is if brought back) :
"Zardari is a a disciple of Prof. Ahmad Rafique Akhtar, a Sufi writer from Gujjar Khan who is the guide of many other officials from civil and military circles as well, and Zardari is known to take advice from other soothsayers and healers, including Pir Mohammad Ejaz, when he has political troubles, often offering animal sacrifice.[1]">
Thanks! 2A02:A03F:6504:1700:77C2:220B:6F8:A903 (talk) 19:16, 8 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done: The citation you gave still does not support the addition you want to make. It simply says that Zardar made a visit to Dr Akhtar, accompanied by "scores" of other government officials. It also says that Dr Akhtar is frequently visited by such dignitaries seeking his advice, but not that Zardar himself has frequently visited him--nowhere does it say Zardar is a disciple of Dr Akhtar. Nothing is known about anything that was said in the meeting--apparently the press were not invited. Finally, your source doesn't say that Dr Akhtar is a Sufi, but I did you a favor and found a book[2] that says so clearly in the title. I think the best you can get out of this is something like:

Zardari is known to seek the advice of 'soothsayers and healers', especially during times of political troubles. He has visited Prof. Ahmad Rafique Akhtar, a well-known Sufi scholar who often counsels government officials and military leaders. During his presidency, he would consult with his then spiritual leader, Pir Mohammad Ejaz about such matters as travel times, and animals were sacrificed at particularly trying times.

If that is acceptable, ping me and I will make the edit. Xan747 (talk) 00:55, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Yes please go on, this is more or less a better rephrasing (English not my native tongue) of the paragraph I proposed, but just few extra propositions :
To precise that Akhtar is from Gujar Khan (so probably "...a well-known Sufi scholar based in Gujar Khan who often counsels...")
Also in the following :
"...then spiritual leader, Pir Mohammad Ejaz about..."
I believe there should either be no comma (",") or if there's a "," after "leader" there should be one after "Ejaz" too, to keep the fluidity of the sentence.
Lastly if possible to redirect "Pir" (that is of Pir Mohammad Ejaz) to the following page (as I did in my proposition) to get a better context of the individual mentionned :
