thread_title:  Babu Butt not "Babu bhatt"

message: This section only talks about British Pakistanis. There is absolutely no mention of Pakistani Americans. Content should either be removed or re-written. Whats the point of talking about British Pakistanis on a page about Pakistani Americans anyway? A Fantasy (talk) 21:12, 5 January 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: If you had posted this at the bottom of the page rather then the top you would have noticed it says copyright removal which is why that section makes no sense any more since most of the relevant info was removed. you are more than welcome to remove that section as it is no longer relevant.

thread_title: Aliens in America

message: I don't understand the concept of Pakistani Americans. From what I can tell, Pakistanis aren't a distinct race or ethnicity from Indians. Pakistan was part of India until 1947. Before that, there WERE no Pakistanis. So it looks to me like Pakistanis are a nationality, not a race or ethnicity. Gringo300 23:50, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Image copyright problem with Image:Nadia ali cleo magazine cover.jpg

message: First of all, Muzzammil Hassan's brutal murder of his wife was more of an issue of domestic violence than an "honor killing."  In any case, it hardly qualifies as sufficiently relevant to be included in an article about Pakistani Americans as a whole.  I don't see individual crimes committed by members of other ethnic groups being mentioned on their wikipedia entries.

message: Good day, I'm wondering if there's any resources available to give information about the marriage patterns of Pakistani-Americans. Particularly the outmarriage or exogamous marriage, including a comparison between the sexes, similar to the statistics available in the Asian-Nation website. Thank you!

thread_title: Outmarriage of Pakistani-Americans incl. comparison between the sexes

message: I have recently checked the 2010 figure of Pakistani Americans which is estimate to more then 700,000 over here while the current figure of 286,302 over here is 4 years old. Hence i think we should be considering the most recent figure of 700,000 rather then mentioning old figures. Regards! SyedMANaqvi (talk) 16:51, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

message: the layout for the pictures are horrible, user naqvi clearly can't do there maths if they think that 700,000 is 0.16% of the population and sects of islam are not required so why is there a need to mention sunni or shia? Hrh80 (talk)

thread_title: Infobox image discussion

message: This is silly and pointless edit warring. Per WP:SEEALSO, only relevant and related articles should be listed. Pakistani Canadians live in a neighbouring country of North America, and are listed like other Asian American articles. Pakistanis article is also relevant as this article is on Pakistanis who migrated to America. British Pakistanis are another large group of overseas Pakistanis hence listed. Pakistan has dual nationality agreement with these countries so nationals of all these countries can legally be citizens of Pakistan and their resident countries at the same time. Stranded Pakistanis has nothing to do with Overseas Pakistanis or any of this. Stop pushing your POV at articles. Mar4d (talk) 06:59, 8 May 2015 (UTC)

message: The article boldly claims that Pakistanis were residing in America in 1700s. Where is the source for this wild nonsensical claim? As far as I know, Pakistanis are of "Hindu" (Indian) race and this race was statutorily banned from residing in the United States, see United States v. Bhagat Singh Thind. A person ineligible for U.S. citizenship was not allowed to reside in the United States.  After the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 was enacted that's when Hindu race was allowed to reside permanently.--39.41.5.202 (talk) 13:41, 31 July 2020 (UTC)
