I think editor is saying that there is "another" educational system in Afghanistan with the addition of this school. I don't know that we have any parameters to analyze which is better, but it would suggest that the school might be added as a "new" method. Clearly discussed or it wouldn't have opened. Is it WP:SPAM or is it necessary? And can we get references? Major questions before we add it. Student7 (talk) 20:38, 20 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Girls' education

Should we have a section dealing specifically with the issue of education of girls?

In modern Afghan history girls' education was basically on par with that of boys until the end of the Soviet occupation, then the Taliban regime outlawed the education of girls. Since the American invasion and the end of the Taliban regime rebuilding girls' schools has been an ongoing priority for the Kharzai government.

Who will help me find good sources for such a section? Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 10:46, 11 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Using other sources then US Govt

After reading this article it saddens me to see that one paragraph describing the downfall of the education system in Afghanistan was caused by the USSR invasion of Afghanistan and this paragraph sources mainly 1 reference and that is the Federal Research Division of the US Congress. To me the US Govt is a bias source when it comes to telling the truth about conflicts especially in ones they were involved in. Forget that instead of calling it a civil war we call it the Soviet war in Afghanistan but to say that USSR invaded Afghanistan is a slap to our intelligence! I asking for a revision of the paragraph to say civil war instead of Soviet invasion which caused the downfall of the education system but to also find other sources of references ie watch groups or neutral parties!

Laptop Program removed

I removed information about the laptop program since it does not meet WP criteria (WP:NOT) and the source points to the program itself rather than to reliable sources (WP:RS). If you think differently, please, let's talk about it here rather than reverting. Thanks. Caballero/Historiador^⎌ 22:20, 14 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
