There's loads of fascinating information on this page, but it requires wikifying, copyediting, references where possible, and really a total cleanup. I've started on this job, but please continue it, and use Wikipedia's style guides. Please also bear in mind the Wikipedia NPOV policy, and that everything on Wikipedia should read like an encyclopedia, not an essay. Thanks! -- TinaSparkle 13:42, 26 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

My family is from Murree as well and looks like a 5 year old who doesn't know proper English grammar wrote this. Please clean it up and make it at least readable. R. A. Abbasi 11:10, 12 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If you have some knowledge that you can contribute to the article, feel free to do so, as it appears that editor knowledge of the subject and topics discussed is very, very limited. BrokenSphere 16:45, 12 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

i'm currently doing a large copyedit, which will probably include a separate step of removing information for further research, mostly on the tribes and history. feel free to leave a note here if you've got useful resources that'll help for that part of the project.

  • Oh yikes, I put this task aside for a long long while due to limited resources and limited time for additional resources in attempting to get the info straight. I'll leave this for someone else's factcheck and copyedit. Imfa11ingup 02:50, 31 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Henry Lawrence

My dear friends, hello. I have made some amendments in the History portion re Sir Henry Lawrence and added some more infornmation about the early foundation of Murree. Reg Sir Henry Lawrence, I have noticed this in some other articles related to the early Punjab tyhat people tend to keep ref to him as 'Governor of the Punjab' (have fixed some of these in other places too) -- now, in fact, after the Treaty of Bhairowal, 1846, Sir Henry Lawrence was British Resident in Punjab at the court of the minor Maharaja Dilip Singh and after the 2nd Anglo-Sikh War he became President of the Board of Administration for the Punjab, on annexation c 1849 to 1853. He was then transfered by Lord Dalhousie, Governor-General and his younger brother, John Lawrence (later Lord Lawrence of the Punjab) became the Chief Commissioner of this new province of British India (1853-59) and then, very briefly, the first Lieutenant-Governor of the Punjab (Feb 1859) before retiring to England. He was followed by Sir Robert Montgomery as the 2nd Lieutenant-Governor. Meanwhile, Sir Henry Lawrence had died at the Defence of Lucknow, July 1857 (Indian Mutiny/Rebellion/War of Independence, according to your point of view). I hope this is useful!

In addition to the above, have also made some other minor changes and editorial amendments, and sorted out some problems witht he textual information and its verifiability and atendant standards. Please, would be very grateful if (a) various blogsites and/or websites of dubious nature and provennace, run and managed by local people in Pakistan and/or prmoting a slanted and biased view of history, shouldnt be cited.
