Not done: That website appears to be use content taken from Wikipedia, which means it is not an appropriate source for a Wikipedia article, see WP:CIRCULAR. Regardless, there also doesn't appear to be anything wrong with the current source. Volteer1 (talk) 17:06, 10 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Canadian Citizenship
Is honorary Canadian Citizenship, really need to be put in the infobox, to the same level as Pakistani citizenship? Especially because according the citizenship it is honorary and the Honorary Canadian Citizenship article states "Honorary Canadian citizenship is purely symbolic; the recipient does not receive any of the rights, privileges, or duties typically held by a Canadian citizen."

As the Canadian citizenship is honorary and already mentioned in the lede there is no need to put it in the infobox. Robynthehode (talk) 13:09, 19 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
British citizenship
I think she has British citizenship now. Or is it just residency?150.101.89.147 (talk) 10:27, 19 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It doesn't matter what you think but what reliable sources support WP:RS. Provide a reliable source for this information and it can be included in the appropriate section. Robynthehode (talk) 13:11, 19 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, point taken. But no need to be rude. Thanks.150.101.89.147 (talk) 08:44, 20 June 2021 (UTC)k[reply]
Sorry if you took my comment to be rude but clearly stating Wikipedia policy is not being rude. It is one of the fundamental protocols of Wikipedia that as editors our opinion about a subject doesn't matter. Instead we, as editors, collate reliabley sourced information for inclusion in articles. I provided a link so you could read up on protocol. Further, talk pages are for suggesting how to improve articles not for making unsupported comments WP:TALK. Robynthehode (talk) 11:38, 20 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Sure. I guess that's the problem with written communication. Things might appear to be something else.150.101.89.147 (talk) 01:16, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
"often referred to mononymously"?
Is this something that's specific to her, or do all members of the Yusufzai tribe do this because being referred to simply as "Yousafzai" (as for example the current POTUS is referred to simply as "Biden") would be insufficient when there are so many of them? I know substantially more about Japanese names than Pashtun names, but members of the Fujiwara clan (at least pre-modern ones who lived in a period when family names were not common in Japan) are rarely referred to as "Fujiwara" but rather as, say, "Michinaga", so I suspect this may be a similar situation. She's probably the most famous Yusufzai in western mass media right now, which, if my assumption is correct, would still create a false impression that conventions applied to members of her tribe in general rather apply specifically to her; Saddam Hussein was the most famous Iraqi in western media in the 1990s, and western media knew to refer to him "mononymously" as "Saddam" rather than "Hussein", but we don't note that in our article on him. But I'm just guessing here -- do we actually know? Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 09:51, 16 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
