pashtun mafia?
The information you provided about the pashtun mafia promises to be interesting. But it has to be referenced. Are you in a position to cite an authoritative, verifiable source for this information? If so, please add it
The wikipedia has three key policies: WP:NPOV, WP:NOR and WP:VER. If you can't find a citation your connection will eventually be removed, because it does not comply with these policies.

- Similarly, the existing references don't support the connection you added to the Pashtun Mafia, just that they Abdul Qadir was accused of ties to organized crime. You have to find a reference that explicitly ties these men to "pashtun mafia".
- I'll help you, if I can. Is Pasha Khan Zadran also a druglord?
- Cheers! Geo Swan 09:11, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
- You cited the Asia Times -- a good source -- to tie men to the Pashtun mafia. But a google search doesn't actually show the Asia Times ever used this phrase.
- A google search for the two separate words pashtun and mafia gives this list. It offers links that would enable us to add individuals to the article about the Opium production in Afghanistan. But not to pashtun mafia.

Copyright violation in Badal (justice/revenge)
![](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/3/35/Information_icon.svg/62px-Information_icon.svg.png)
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Badal (justice/revenge), by 68.39.174.238 (talk · contribs), another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Badal (justice/revenge) is unquestionably copyright infringement, and no assertion of permission has been made.
To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Badal (justice/revenge), please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself. --Android Mouse Bot 2 18:10, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

Vandalism of Pashtun Articles
We need to work on getting users like Behnam and Anoshirawan banned or blocked because they are severely vandalising Pashtun culture and Pashtun people related articles. An example is that of Mirwais Khan Hotak and the Hotaki dynasty, where they are trying to show that the Hotaks were not Ghilzai Pashtuns, but were Tatars or Uzbeks.zakka 13:54, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
