Rape in Pakistan

  • As far as DYK criteria goes, it checks out. The date is new, length is suitable, it's well-referenced (all references are offline books, however), the hook is cited in-line, and it appears to be neutrally written. I'm AGFing the reference. My only concern—and someone with a better understanding of DYK-worthy articles can chime in—is if this is an article appropriate for the front page of Misplaced Pages. I understand we shouldn't necessarily censor what we put up if it's verifiable, neutral and acceptable by all other conventions, I just feel like certain topics need to be dealt with more carefully. This particular hook is probably as safely worded as it can get, given the circumstances. I'd just like to hear others' opinions as well. Jrcla2 (talk) 15:30, 27 June 2012 (UTC)
  • Striking out the tick/checkmark and replacing with symbol for issue to be resolved. The reviewer expressed doubts about the accuracy of the hook at Misplaced Pages talk:Did you know, after comparing the book passage with the claim in the article and hook. I am also not sure that the article is adequately neutral in tone - I suggest dividing the lead para to create a separate paragraph on the magnitude of the problem and wording that more in terms of "Studies by human rights organizations have shown . . ." and "Scholar ... says". The article at present presents it as incontrovertible. I note that I was able to find all but one of the source passages online. Yngvadottir (talk) 20:01, 28 June 2012 (UTC)
  • ALT1... that according to lawyer Asma Jahangir, up to seventy-two percent of women in custody in Pakistan are physically or sexually abused?
proposed by Darkness Shines, tweaked by me; a reference for this has been added to the article and I've now added a URL to that ref. (The reference does support the statement.) Yngvadottir (talk) 20:12, 28 June 2012 (UTC)
"Up to 72%" includes 0%. Again, what is the basis for this claim? Nothing.
When I am dictator of Misplaced Pages, this article will be razed and the editor thrown into the dungeon. Since I am not the dictator, what shall we do?
