Talk:Pirzada Qasim

suggestions

1. I would suggest that, as we do with most academics, the bibliography be limited to the most important articles. (In any case, the full name of the journals should be given, not just the abbreviations. ) In particular, publications that are only abstracts or conference talks should be removed, leaving just the peer-reviewed journals--that's our usual practice.
2. The article mentions his literary works. They should be listed also. In this case, it would be common to do a fairly detailed listof all separate publications, though not all individual poems and stories. The article refers to criticism: this should be given also, probably in a footnote. DGG ( talk ) 17:50, 20 November 2011 (UTC)

Blacklisted Links Found on the Main Page

Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request it's removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:

Down the memory lane

Me and Prof. Pirzada Qasim

Today, October 3, 2017 I searched for Prof. Qasim again on the internet after about a decade’s gap when I had last met him at the International Islamic University at a small poetic gathering. I learnt a few new –rather surprising – things about his person. I had known him via his poetry on line; I learnt only today that he is a medical scientist. Also, that he is eleven years younger to me.

I recall from an old mushaira a ghazal of his that began thus:

       Khoon se jub jala diya ek diya bujha ho-a

Phir mujhe dediya gya ek diya bujha ho-a

In 2006 , I – an economist by profession- published a small collection of my Urdu poetry - A-EE-NA. I was so impressed with Janab Peerzada that I posted a copy of my book with a short letter typed in Urdu to him by surface mail when he was the VC of Karachi University I waited for over a month for a reply then forgot about it; I knew the quality of my poetry.

One day I received a letter in a Karachi University envelop. It was a one page letter from the VC. He expressed regret for a delayed reply and recalled his childhood links with Delhi appreciated my humble effort being from an economist to two couplets and one poem that he liked. Alas, I lost that letter while shifting to Delhi from Malaysia in 2015.

Now, I heard his latest poetry on U-tube. The depth, range, language and style have all improved beyond surprise. The evidence is his ghazal where one couplet is:

         Khudhi likha hai faisla upnay khilph aap ne
         Haath bhi mul rhay hain aap, aap bray ajeeb hain
