Update

This article is rather out of date. Does anybody know whether there was a June 2004 election and if so what the results were? -Axxaer 21:29, 17 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, he won 13 percent of the vote (the most of any candidate) in Paktika. He still serves as their representative there. (Azubi (talk) 02:55, 5 February 2010 (UTC))[reply]

Edited title

I edited the title from Syed Ishay Ghalani tot Sayed Ishaq Gailani. That's the most common translation of his name. See for example the website of his party: http://www.nsmafghanistan.org/bio.html —Preceding unsigned comment added by Diedtc (talk • contribs) 10:27, 6 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

identity

I think there could be some identity confusion going on. I commented about Pir Ishaq Gailani and Pir Sayed Ishaq Gailani at Talk:National Solidarity Movement of Afghanistan. Geo Swan (talk) 07:51, 6 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Pir (Sufism) is a senior Sufi leader -- sometimes translated as "Saint" -- not part of the name at all. Darn. Complicated. Geo Swan (talk) 08:29, 6 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, Sayed Ishaq Gailani and Pir Sayed Ishaq Gailani are the same person. Let's merge the articles and delete this one. (Azubi (talk) 01:53, 5 February 2010 (UTC))[reply]

These are two different people with different names. In the content, it's mentioned that one is the uncle and the other is the nephew however, you have the same picture and birthdate for both. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.21.193.160 (talk) 17:06, 31 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
