"Westernmost"

[edit]

I reverted the deletion of "westernmost 7,000 metre peak" since that is, in fact, a meaningful statement, in the same way that saying "Maine is the easternmost of the United States" is meaningful. Since the 7000m peaks are concentrated in one relatively small region of the globe, spanning far less than 180 degrees of longitude, there is a well-defined westernmost (and a well-defined easternmost) peak. If you think that the statement needs further amplification in the article, please discuss here. -- Spireguy (talk) 21:19, 28 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

BBC News

[edit]

I removed a copy and paste from the bbc news website about a british expedition. If you want to add this please write the article properly and reference the bbc article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.62.5.158 (talk) 11:09, 2 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

No evidence that Fatima Sultani climbed Noshaq

[edit]

I deleted sentence that Fatima Sultani climbed Noshaq. There is no evidence (no pictures from the summit, no GPS tracks, etc.) that she did and that anyone from that expedition in 2019 managed to reach the summit. It was first published by BBC and later copy/paste approach without any verification. 62.66.194.183 (talk) 21:28, 12 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Sultani, where there may be minimal evidence of her summit, should still be included with a disclaimer about the unverified nature. And some evidence may just not be available to the public. And the BBC is a relatively trusted news site, so it is likely that they have verification on Sultani's summit. It should also be included that she was part of the first all-afghan team 2600:1701:41C:2600:CDB2:2310:3726:1451 (talk) 14:45, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
