Talk:Helmand Province

message: The population figure of 1,441,769 is given, and said to be from 2010. However, past revisions of the page going back well into 2009 give the same figure. The source claims to be an update as of May 2010, but the population figure for most of 2009 is identical. Are we expected to believe that, out of over 1.4 million people, there was not a single change in population over the course of an entire year? I'd just change the date, but then I'd have to change the source back to its 2009 version. Maybe we could make a note about this?

message: The article states that the U.S. Camp Leatherneck and the British Camp Bastion are southwest of the capital Lashkar Gah, but the interactive Wiki map on the page shows that they are northwest of the capital.  Which is correct?

message: about the politics and government section:
The current Governor of the province is Mirza Khan Rahimi.[1] The city of Lashkar Gah is the capital of Helmand province. All law enforcement activities throughout the province are controlled by the Afghan National Police (ANP). Helmand's border with neighboring Balochistan province of Pakistan is monitored and protected by the Afghan Border Police (ABP), which is part of the ANP. The border is called the Durand Line and is known to be one of the most dangerous in the world due to heavy militant activities and illegal smugglings. A provincial Police Chief is assigned to lead both the ANP. The Police Chief represents the Ministry of the Interior in Kabul. The ANP is backed by other Afghan National Security Forces (ANSF), including the NATO-led forces.
on what basis do you judge my edits specifying the illegal smugglings going into pakistan from afghanistan being "unnecessary" and "disruptive"?

read the above articles for the evidence
"The border is called the Durand Line and is known to be one of the most dangerous in the world due to heavy militant activities and illegal smugglings"
known by whom? no source provided so this should be deleted too, right?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gangadesh721 (talk • contribs) 07:59, 25 June 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: I have added a reference for that sentence. Also, what you are indulging is termed WP:POV. Cross-border smuggling on the Durand Line is a two way street and there are many sources out there which do state that smuggling also happens from Pakistan into Afghanistan. I am mentioning a few for your reference (,). Adamgerber80 (talk) 06:13, 27 June 2018 (UTC)
