[edit] Repeated vandalism or near-vandalism

This page has been subjected to repeated insertions of material that has serious deficiencies. While the spelling, grammar, and formatting alone would make the inserted text unfit for inclusion in an encyclopedia, the material is non-neutral.

In this article and others, the same user appears to be repeatedly trying to promote a couple of websites: BalochVoice and BalochTawar.

I removed these links, and will substitute links that are pertinent to the subject. Is there some other action that the Wikipedia community would recommend? 68.20.38.45 05:13, 11 Oct 2004 (UTC)

What is the part about "China doesn't have warm water ports??" Isn't Shanghai warm enough? I think the writer is mistaking China for CIS countries. If not, he is expecting the Chinese to carry containers from Gwadar through mountains of Tibet and deserts of Western China to East of China were all the activity is. I had removed this part some weeks ago from the text but I think he doesn't want to give up!

Haha. All of China's ports are warm water. Gwadar is important for China because it gives China access to the Indian ocean, as well as close access to the Middle East. China has been promised quite a bit of sovereignty in Gwadar (since they are the ones who financed practically everything there).

Reply: who told you about Chinese sovereignity in Gwadar? It is a Pakistani port.

Pak-China has enjoyed a long frindship based on common respect for each other and are now taking steps to explore and enjoy each other's resources. I'm happy that the people of Pakistan in general and of Balochitan in specific are finally going to enjoy the benefits of their land that has been long ignored!

the strategic importance portion of this article appears to be a word-for-word copy .
