This article has alot of problems as to its neutrality and seems like typical ethnic nationalist POV based original research. We don't need this article on Wikipedia for many reasons:

• It's undue to have this article when we have other articles with fair coverage of events mentioned in this article like 1947 North-West Frontier Province referendum, Bannu resolution Pashtunistan, Afghanistan-Pakistan relations, Afghanistan-Pakistan border skirmishes, Bajaur Campaign etc.
• It's also important to mention that what is being presented as Pashtun rebellion is actually Afghanistan's interference in Pakistan. Pashtun rebellion against British was still a thing but it was not in Pakistan.
• A brief resistance in Pakistan by Faqir Ipi and his group which was supported by Afghanistan was ended with their surrender to Pakistani authorities. Bacha Khan of Khudai Khidmatgars too accepted Pakistan sometime after 1947 refrendum.
• Article itself states that Afghanistan government which sent Afghan Army disguised as tribals failed to trigger Pashtun rebellion.

So it doesn't constitute Pashtuns Rebellion in Pakistan in anyway and this article be deleted from Wikipedia. USaamo ^(t@lk) 16:06, 5 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Do you have some personal offence to this article? I am not even Afghanistan I am from Pakistan. Please lets not devolve into monkeys. If there are legitimate concerns over any neutrality then change it yourself. The logic that this information can be found in a combination of other articles so it should be deleted is quiet ridiculous. That is the case for plenty more wikipedia articles, so if we go by that logic let us take down hundreds of wiki pages because they contain information present in other articles.

• Delete - The article and title are misleading. Pashtuns are among the major Ethnic groups in Pakistan. They never rebelled against Pakistan. The insurgency by minor groups, who have separate organizational identities may not link to the Pushtuns. --Ameen Akbar (talk) 17:41, 6 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  Its as simple as changing the title then. "Afghan Sponsored Pashtun Rebellions in Pakistan". PreserveOurHistory (talk) 11:45, 9 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - Misleading article No original research copy pasted from above mentioned articles. War Wounded (talk) 12:08, 7 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete per nominator. Pashtun rebellion isn't the same as Afghan claims on Pakistani territory. Pashtun tribal militias even counter attacked Afghan border forces if chronologies of the Durand Line issue are taken into consideration.--Sylvester Millner (talk) 21:20, 8 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  Article may be renamed to say "Afghan Sponsored" at the start. But Yes such rebellions did exist whether it is through Haji Mirzali Khan or some members of todays terror groups (Tehreek-E-Taliban Pakistan) it did happen. PreserveOurHistory (talk) 11:47, 9 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Article may be renamed as Afghan interference in Pakistan but that needs to be rewritten with well researched sources. For now the best for article is to WP:NUKEANDPAVE.

  Secondly Mirzali against Pakistan was precisely a brief and limited resistance on Afghan sponsorship. As to TTP, that's a terror group and has least to do with Pashtuns or rebellion of any sort.

  I have no personal problem with you and that's not at all my concern who you're. We're here only to improve this encyclopedia and such propaganda articles have no space in it. You need to understand what Wikipedia is Not. WP:NOTEVERYTHING Thanks! USaamo ^(t@lk)
