Warning on Pakistan Page
Hi, I am new to editing. I saw few factual errors in warning box on Pakistan page. My reasons for changes are given below. 1. Terrorism has decreased at the most dramatic pace in Pakistan so i entered increasingly diminishing terrorism. 2. I do not recall any foreigner being kidnapped in Pakistan for last 10 years. Daniel Pearl was the last high profile foreigner being kidnapped but he was not a tourist. 3. Only some parts of Pakistan have trouble. Most of it is trouble free, especially tourist friendly places in the North. 4. Only Western Countries with exception of Hong Kong have issued strong travel advisory instead of all governments. So I corrected that. Please feel free to discuss to correct facts. I do want people to be aware of dangers in Pakistan but they should not be blown out of proportion under the influence of Western media alone. Free discourse is source of wisdom. —The preceding comment was added by Rana Naeem Tahir (talk • contribs)
 * I see, thanks for explaining. Could you elaborate as to why you removed names of specific cities that tourists are likely to visit? Is it your opinion that these are safe and the warning doesn't apply to them? If so, could you replace them with places that the warning does apply to, rather than removing?

Rawalpindi and Islamabad are twin cities and as such there is no geographical separation between the two. They are perfectly safe and there has been no terror incident here for last many years. Foreigners roam freely here, especially Islamabad as it had been the safest even during full blown terrorism. As for Lahore is concerned, again, no terrorist incidents here for so many years. It is considered to be the cultural hub of Pakistan and very hospitable towards tourists. As for Karachi, it is a metropolitan with population of more than 20 million people. Law and order incidents do occur here but terrorism is thing of the past. You have asked me to add cities which are dangerous, well, I can name Quetta and Peshawer. Here too terrorist incidents have become a thing of the past yet on a comparative basis, they are still not very safe for foreign tourists. I hope it answers your concerns. Thank you for providing me an opportunity to elaborate.
