Biosphere reserves of Pakistan

[edit]
  • Reviewed: 2nd self-nomination

  • While the size and date are fine, I have a major problem with the hook and the article. The article is entitled "Biosphere reserves of Pakistan" but what it really seems about it the "Lal Suhanra National Park", also described in text as the "Lal Suhanra Biosphere Reserve". I think the article needs to be moved to a new title. Then, after this nom is readjusted, the article should be dykable. But for now, readers expecting to learn something about the "Biosphere reserves of Pakistan" will be confused, as they will arrive about an article that is about something different. Please ping me on talk if there is a comment here or you'd like me to re-review the article. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 21:33, 12 September 2012 (UTC)
  • I have expanded the article to include other biosphere related details. Samar Talk 09:40, 13 September 2012 (UTC)
  • Ok, I think I understand my confusion now. This is the only biosphere reserve in Pakistan, because each has to be confirmed by UNESCO first, right? If so, this should be clearly stated in the article. I'd also suggest changing the hook to the following ALT1. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 17:56, 13 September 2012 (UTC)
  • I prefer the alternate. And not necessarily each reserve has to be recognized by UNESCO. Each country has their own reserves, they submit it to MAB programme for approval. Pakistan has only one biosphere reserve (which is also recognized by UNESCO).Samar Talk 18:11, 13 September 2012 (UTC)
