Name of the article is a problem
Unfortunately, there is no formal entity called "Pakistan's Tribal Areas". There are the Federally Administered Tribal Areas. The confusion may come from starting the article from a newspaper account rather than more formal studies of the area, a few of which I have cited.
Further, if it discusses terrorism and politics, it also comes under the Military and Politics workgroups.
May we start by moving the article so its title is correct? Howard C. Berkowitz 22:21, 17 February 2009 (UTC)
