message: The flag icon used in this article for the British rule of India in 1947 was recently changed, as seen in this comparison: . I don't know which is correct. Since the user made no edit summary, I posted a request for explanation on the talk page of the person who changed it. If anyone can, please inspect this and explain which is the correct flag. Thanks. Ajobin (talk) 22:33, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

message: As per the facts outlined above, the official name of the dominion was simply "Pakistan", not "Dominion of Pakistan". "Pakistan" was also the common name for the dominion. On the basis that the proposal to move the page to Pakistan (dominion) has not encountered any opposition, I will make the move. NelsonSudan (talk) 07:47, 30 July 2011 (UTC)

message: Various edits: As per talk page discussion (above), consensus reached was that the official name was "Pakistan" though D of P was also used; not a separate realm at outset as monarch had only 1 title in 1947. For those who don't know what I am talking about, you should review the articles on the Styles and titles of the British monarch etc. In short, the modern concept of "Commonwealth realm" or "Realm Country" only dates from 1953 as up to then the Monarch's title was exactly the same in relation to say Australia as it was to the UK. There was no "Pakistani" Queen or "Australian" Queen etc pre 1953. 86.42.28.118 (talk) 21:40, 18 February 2012 (UTC)

replies: text: I am sorry that i had to revert you again, the first source you mentioned is unreachable, the second source you mentioned does not cite that "God Save the King" was played as national anthem, it more seems like those words were uttered as a slogan. Unless there is a proper source in the page that these anthems were in fact anthems of Pakistan for the time period you are mentioning, they cannot go in the article. Since you just recently changed this long standing article and added these two anthems in the article, i will have to revert that and i would suggest that you seek consensus and proper sources before you entered them in the page once again.

Pakistan, ( ;  ) as it was was commonly called in contemporary usage, comprised of East and West Pakistan, which was also where the country's capital, Karachi,  was situation. The new nation was a constitutional monarch and George V became King of Pakistan and Muhammad Ali Jinnah, Father of the Nation, was granted permission by the monarch, on Jinnah's request, to be Pakistan's first Governor General.

message: The following is an extract from the Indian Independence Act 1947:
The following is from the text of an important (self-explanatory) UN resolution from 1947:
The following are a sample (sample only) of the many treaties during the period that Pakistan was a Dominion. In none is Pakistan described as the "Dominion of Pakistan":
*;
*Exchange of notes constituting a visa agreement. Karachi, 16 August 1957; *AGREEMENT1 BETWEEN THE GOVERNMENT OF THE REPUBLIC OF THE PHILIPPINES AND THE GOVERNMENT OF PAKISTAN RELATING TO AIR SERVICES. SIGNED AT KARACHI, ON 16 JULY 1949; 
*No. 2736. MUTUAL DEFENCE ASSISTANCE AGREEMENT1 BETWEEN THE GOVERNMENT OF PAKISTAN AND THE GOVERNMENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. SIGNED AT KARACHI, ON 19 MAY 1954;
*No. 2472. AGREEMENT1 BETWEEN THE UNITED NATIONS AND THE GOVERNMENT OF PAKISTAN CONCERNING THE UNITED NATIONS REGIONAL TRAINING CENTRE IN RAILWAY OPERATIONS AND SIGNALLING AT LAHORE. SIGNED AT KARACHI,ON 25 JANUARY 1954
I see from the archives that all this has been pointed out before. The article should reflect what the official name actually was. Yes Hungary is a republic. But Hungary's name is not the Republic of Hungary. Yes Pakistan was a dominion. But it's name was not the Dominion of Pakistan. Frenchmalawi (talk) 01:31, 17 December 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: We need to disambiguate this article from the article on modern Pakistan. It is useful for these articles to be separate. What name do you propose for this article?

thread_title:  Official name was just plain Pakistan, not "Dominion of" anything. 

message: User:NadirAli recently added . I reverted this with the edit summary "Not in the British Empire, article covers the period immediately after independence", and NadirAli restored it with the edit summary "It shared the same monarch with Britain until 1956".
The British Empire article says " The British Empire comprised the dominions, colonies, protectorates, mandates and other territories ruled or administered by the United Kingdom and its predecessor states". The Dominion of Pakistan was an independent federal dominion. It was a constitutional monarchy that shared a monarch with the UK, but it was not ruled or administered by the UK. Several countries, including Canada and Australia, still share a monarch with the UK but they are not in the British Empire. The Dominions article says that British dominions became fully independent in 1931.
