Mirage IIIs numbers in PAF

I updated current serving mirages IIIs to roughly 46. You undid that back to 75. I understand that PAFs acquisition of Mirages and subsequent fleet numbers is hard to estimate because of multiple acquisitions over multiple decades with some purchases of aircraft meant only for spares cannibalization but please realize this is not possible, I would refer you to:

1. Scroll down to Post# 170: http://defence.pk/threads/capabilities-of-paf-dassault-mirage-iii-v.44991/page-12 This is by far the post detailed and succinct summary of PAF Mirages, and you will realize with the information there that only 3 Mirage III squadrons with diminished strength are currently active: No.7 at Masroor, No. 22 OCU and Skybolts at Combat Commanders School.

2. No. 5 squadron has retired its original 1970s purchase of Mirage IIIs and is now equipped with f 16 block 52s. So it is not possible for PAF to have 75 Mirage IIIs — Preceding unsigned comment added by Markers Elite (talkcontribs) 16:42, 23 December 2016 (UTC)

4th GA Cup - Round 2

WikiProject Good Articles's 2016-2017 GA Cup

Greetings, GA Cup competitors!

December 29th marked the end of the first round, after it was extended from its previously scheduled conclusion at the end of November. Because of the smaller pool of contestants this year, it was decided to keep sign-ups open throughout the month of December.

This extension proved to be very helpful as we saw that more users signed up and completed many reviews. Krishna Chaitanya Velaga earned an impressive 402 points, followed by Cartoon network freak with a close 338 points. Shearonink who signed up after our extension was in third with 170 points.

We had a rule clarification in Round 1 which was that many articles were being passed with blatant copyright violations and plagarism occurring in the articles. Thus, the judges have concluded that if an article is passed even if it has a copyright violation/plagarism, we will not provide points for that article as it wouldn't be considered a "complete review" under the scoring rules.

In the end, 94 articles were reviewed by 14 users who will all advance to Round 2. The judges had planned on having 16 contestants advance but since only 14 did, we are changing the pools in this round. We will be having 2 pools of 3 and 2 pools of 4 in Round 2, with the top 2 in each pool advancing to Round 3 as well as the top participant ("9th place") of all remaining competitors. Round 2 will begin on January 1 at 00:00:00 UTC and will end on January 29 at 23:59:59 UTC. Information about Round 2 and the pools can be found here.

Cheers from 3family6, Figureskatingfan, Jaguar, MrWooHoo, and Zwerg Nase!
