because Pakistan is mentioned in the Vedas on numerous occasions the possibility of a "Medieval Pakistan" is certain.

The language diversity of "Medieval Pakistan" are also certain.

@SheriffIsInTown what exactly is the your issue with the IMF source? It's the very same source which has been used in virtually every Wikipedia article for 2025 GDP figures. If you think it is unreliable, then please go and achieve consensus for it instead of making blanket reverts. Sutyarashi (talk) 05:41, 21 December 2025 (UTC)

@Sutyarashi Dude the IMF is like the best source for GDP? Abni (talk) 05:43, 21 December 2025 (UTC)

Are you asking or telling me? But yes, it is usually considered reliable for GDP figures and economic activities so its repeated removal appeared odd to me. Sutyarashi (talk) 05:50, 21 December 2025 (UTC)

@Sutyarashi Telling Abni (talk) 05:50, 21 December 2025 (UTC)

@Sutyarashi Wait repeated removal? He has repeatedly reverted stuff? Abni (talk) 05:52, 21 December 2025 (UTC)

@SheriffIsInTown, as long as the data from the IMF was published in 2025, it is, and I quote from your own edit summary, "real economic data" for 2025. I support @Sutyarashi's stance that the IMF is a reliable source and that you need consensus for your changes. Abni (talk) 07:12, 21 December 2025 (UTC)

Both of you need to understand who bears the responsibility for consensus under WP:BRD. Please read and understand the guideline. Any new addition may be reverted by any editor, after which it is the responsibility of the editor who introduced the change to gain consensus through discussion. The IMF link clearly states "World Economic Outlook (October 2025)". An outlook means this is not actual data but the IMF's projection. Projections for 2025 should not be preferred over actual 2024 figures. We simply need to wait a little longer for the actual 2025 figures to be released, after which they can be used. Nobody is saying the IMF is unreliable. The World Bank is an equally reliable source, and we are using it for actual 2024 figures. Once actual 2025 figures are available, the data can be updated. Until then, there is no need for repeated back and forth on this issue. Sheriff | ☎ 911 | 16:15, 21 December 2025 (UTC)

Sorry but it doesn't seem that you're getting what I or ​Ababajoni told you. There is community consensus that this IMF source can be, and is being, used for 2025 GDP figures across Wikipedia, and on Wikipedia articles regarding all national entities. No one has raised any objections over its use, which by its very definition, means community consensus. If you disagree with it, feel free to take it for discussion but you cannot unilaterally oppose its use on this article solely by going against community consensus.

So far you have changed your reasoning for reverting from I don’t see gdp ppp of 1.67 for 2025 in that source. (when it was very much there) to Whatever the case, update the body first and then the infobox, avoid sources in infobox (when the main body had been already updated and having source cited in infobox was not even an issue worth reversion) to now claiming that you reverted it because it is mere projection? Honestly I'm not making much sense of your conduct or reasoning here. You have also overridden the 3O by another editor and deliberately ignored 1R rule for contentious topics by twice reverting the article.

If you think this source is unsuitable for use, then please achieve consensus for it since the present community consensus is otherwise. If you do not want to, then I hope you will restore previous revision yourself. Sutyarashi (talk) 18:02, 21 December 2025 (UTC)

The IMF's projection is still data?????????????? Abni (talk) 19:05, 21 December 2025 (UTC)

@SheriffIsInTown, it does not matter if the World Economic Outlook is the IMF's projection, it is still, and I quote once more from your own edit summary, "real economic data". Your opinion on the IMF's stance on this article does not matter in the sense of you reverting @Sutyarashi's edits, consensus' opinion does. If you want this article to not use the IMF's, and I quote from your own reply, "not actual data", please achieve consensus to put these changes into effect, which at this time, you do not have.

@SheriffIsInTown reverted @Marxsafe's edit linking, in the article's Government and politics section, 'Executive' and changing Judicature to Judiciary (I support this change of the edit specifically as the following paragraph about the judiciary does not use 'judicature' once but judiciary thrice). May I ask why? Abni (talk) 04:14, 27 December 2025 (UTC)

Basant ^[1] which is traditionally celebrated in Lahore is the beginning of spring and is connected with kite flying, music and festival foods, which is the sign of a colorful cultural life of the city. Traditional freestyle polo is also on display at the Shandur Polo Festival ^[2] each year, held at the Shandur Pass between Gilgit-Baltistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, where visitors come from around the country and abroad. One such competition in motorsport is the Hub Rally Cross ^[3], an off road race held at Hub, Balochistan, each year that brings dozens of competitors and spectators to the challenging desert and coastal course, representing Pakistan's increasing focus on motorsport and its involvement in the event by young people. Collectively, these events have a significant role of safeguarding the intangible cultural heritage in Pakistan and encouraging cultural integration in Pakistan.

Agriculture and fisheries

Pakistan’s agriculture and fisheries sector plays a vital role in the country’s economy, employing millions of people and contributing significantly to GDP and export revenues. Major crops include wheat, rice, sugarcane, and cotton, while fisheries both inland and marine provide a source of protein for domestic consumption and generate income through exports of fish and seafood products. Coastal provinces such as Sindh and Balochistan have extensive fishing communities, and Pakistan’s river systems and freshwater bodies support inland aquaculture and fish farming.

Blue economy development

Building on this foundation, Pakistan is increasingly focusing on the blue economy, which encompasses sustainable use of marine resources for economic growth, improved livelihoods, and environmental protection. Recognizing the potential of maritime trade, fisheries, aquaculture, and tourism, the government has launched policies and infrastructure projects to boost marine-based industries and promote sustainable exploitation of the country’s coastal and ocean resources.

Aquaculture and seafood export initiatives

As part of these efforts, Pakistan is expanding its aquaculture and maritime sectors to diversify exports and strengthen the national economy. In mid‑2025, the government announced the establishment of a state‑of‑the‑art aquaculture park in Karachi’s Korangi Fish Harbour with an estimated investment of US $10.5 million, projected to produce between 360 and 1,200 tons of seafood annually and support sustainable marine farming. (aquafeed.com) In addition, the federal government has set a target of increasing seafood exports to US $600 million in FY 2025–26, reflecting intensified efforts to expand market access and strengthen value chains in fisheries and aquaculture. (pakobserver.net) Provincial initiatives such as technology‑driven shrimp farming programmes, establishment of shrimp estates, and plans for modern seafood processing and export zones further signal policy focus on transforming Pakistan’s blue economy into a competitive export sector.

The first line of the second paragraph of the "Millitary" section of the article says:

The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Committee (CJCSC) is the highest-ranking military officer, advising the civilian government.

This is now outdated as the CJCSC was abolished in 2025. Hence, it should be updated to:

The Chief of Defence Forces is the highest-ranking military officer, advising the civilian government.
