[edit] Comments

A very interesting article. Though very little research has been done on the subject. Sandbreak 18:39, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

these templates should go here as per wiki guidlines that i have been reading upon.Vmrgrsergr 04:08, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Requested move

Pakistani Jews → History of the Jews in Pakistan — This article is more about the history of the Jews in Pakistan than Pakistani Jews (implying differences, traits, etc.) I think it should move so that it also follows the naming convention of similar articles like History of the Jews in Libya, etc. —NYC2TLV 03:24, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

I agree it should probably move, but I'm curious about whether it might be better to use a name patterned on Jews and Judaism in Japan. Do you have a preference for your suggested version over this one? Might you like this pattern better than the one you suggested? --Cheers, Komdori 18:42, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

While I am sympathetic to Komdori's suggestion, I must choose between the two proposed titles, and, since the article seems to be written from a historical perspective, I prefer NC2TLV's original suggestion. This article has been renamed from Pakistani Jews to History of the Jews in Pakistan as the result of a move request. --Stemonitis 10:23, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
