Request: New Local Board for Pakistan (Urdu)

[Rikafip]

Yes exactly 2025 is too far away. I think we will get our local board earlier.

I don't think that's smart thing to do, to set  deadlines or any sort of dates when you should get your own local board. Since there's been only one local board created in the last 5-6 years, it's obvious that's not something that happens often and just because Nigerians got it, doesn't mean that guy will gey one soon too.

I am saying this not to discourage you but instead not to get disheartened if you don't get on local board soon. Imho, the best course of action is tomorrow just keeps being active, keep your thread clean of spam, bump this thread every once in a while and eventually you will get your own local board.

This is very much true that there is no guarantee when we will get our separate board. The only thing we can do is continue our moment in legitimate manner. Already we are among top 10 most active communities here and with time we will grow further. I would say our request is like Bitcoin, nothing can be said about its accomplishment.

You are not discouraging anyone you are just guiding us. And we are posting in our local thread and getting knowledge in our own language.
But
If we get the local board so we will expand ourselves and many who don't know about the local thread or just posting in bounty sections they may try to come to our local board. And we always try to bump this thread with stats with progress. And we have the hope so we will get our local board soon.

[UmerIdrees]

stats with progress.

With that said, presenting the stats for August (compiled by Hamza in our local board).
Point to note is that the monthly post count and the number of active users in our thread is at the All time high for this year.

With that said, here we are with another amazing month. Again Our member Hamza2424 come up with some interesting facts and figures of our local board for the month of September.

Since he published those charts today, I can tell you that he is missing merits shared for the last two days, September 29 and 30th meaning your numbers are probably even higher (unless there was no merits shared during that period). Thing is, Ddmrddmr updates his Merit Dashboard every Friday, and since last Friday was on September 29th, that means merit data for September is not complete.

So, what I would suggest him is to wait until this Friday (October 6th) so he can get total amount of merits shared during last month.

You are right here however it's hard to believe that there are no merits being shared in the last two days of the month. The reason is that there are so many good posts and some of them are merited by the members. Unlike other local boards, we do not have a merit source but still this number of merits shared is impressive.

I just checked the two days merit shared data manually for 29/30 September and found that 16 merits were shared. So by adding these 16 merits, the effective merits shared in the month of September becomes 374.

You just checked posts written in the last two days (September 29th and September 30th) to see how miuch merit they got, right?

I am asking because you would have to check all posts written last month in order to get correct number because some post from lets say September 10th might have been merited on September 30th and you would have missed it if you only checked those last few days, or post from September 29th might have been merited on October 2nd which then doesn't count towards September. For that reason its best to wait for Friday and check Merit Dashboard to get exact numbers.

[UmerIdrees]

Yes, that is absolutely right. 

I am asking because you would have to check all posts written last month in order to get correct number because some post from lets say September 10th might have been merited on September 30th and you would have missed it if you only checked those last few days, or post from September 29th might have been merited on October 2nd which then doesn't count towards September. For that reason its best to wait for Friday and check Merit Dashboard to get exact numbers.

Hmm this is a valid point, but lets suppose on this friday, 06th October, the the dashbaord is updated and after that there is again some old posts being merited and the probability of this increases more becasue of this thread [Merit] Help posts in local boards that did not receive enough merits by hugeblack. So this merit count per month can increase at any time, the best part of this is that it cannot decrease.

I hope we can get the local board as we bacame a big community now and posts in a single thread have been increeased immmensely. Our thread reached 800 plus pages now, and if compared with other loacl baord, most of the time our posts are more than theirs. Sometimes it is harder for us to make diffeerent kind of posts in a single thread, It wont make sense when in a day we make more than 40 posts, harder to go back and reach them all to find the relavent info.

Same here mate. We are having the same issue in our local board/thread (Bangladesh). Every posts gets stack up with each other. This overlapping causes important posts to gets buried in old pages. I think you'll get a local board soon. I understand quality matters more then quantity but you guys are doing well based on the statistics. Pakistan thread has many active members and post counts are also good. On the other hand we don't have enough active members but we are also trying. Pakistan and Bangladesh are the most active threads which still doesn't have their own local boards yet. I'm hoping that will change after the end of 2023. With a new year, theymos might give us a new year gift, hopefully.

[UmerIdrees]

I'm hoping that will change after the end of 2023. With a new year, theymos might give us a new year gift, hopefully.

With the stats being shared by our beloved member Hamza2424, the monthly activity for the month of October is yet another successful story.
We are doing some amazing work, and trust me in some cases even better than the communities already having a local board

I understand how hard it would be to keep up with the discussion in a local thread where everyone is talking about anything in the same thread. Even we get lost sometimes in the discussion threads, but at least that is limited to the discussion on the same topic. Local thread is a one-stop discussion for all the local topics and as the active members grow in the local thread, you will lose the charm to post in local threads.
A lot of positive discussions and useful information may become overlooked due to the congestion of mixed posting. I think all the active local threads should be given the opportunity to convert them into local boards. I don't see a reason of not doing so 

[UmerIdrees]

Here we are with another month's Merits Stats of our local board.

We giving our best, improving our stats day by day, with the hope that Theymos will announce yet another local board within this year and this time it may be for the Pakistan (Urdu)

Merit Analysis (October 2023)

[shahzadafzal]

Here we are with another month's Merits Stats of our local board.

We giving our best, improving our stats day by day, with the hope that Theymos will announce yet another local board within this year and this time it may be for the Pakistan (Urdu)

You are absolutely correct, and the progress we've made so far are truly commendable, especially considering we don't have our own local board yet. Now, envision the progress we can achieve once we establish a dedicated local board for the Pakistani and other Urdu-speaking communities. It has been proven recently that the progress of a local board can be superb after it's inception.

Given the Nigeria's population (more than 200 million, 6th most populous country in the world) and more importantly how popular bitcoin is there, its not really a surprise that they are climbing up the ladder fast and I wouldn't be surprised at all to see them at the top in the future.

Success of the Nigerian local board should be a proof enough to forum staff that it makes sense to create few more local boards to those who consistently have good numbers, namely Pakistan and Bangladesh as their numbers would most likely grow too if given local boards.

It's crucial to note that while Urdu is the national language of Pakistan, there are numerous individuals across different countries who speak Urdu as their native/second language:

Pakistan        231.4  million (National Language Urdu)
Indian           50.77  million Urdu speakers
Afghanistan   733,000 native Urdu speakers
Nepal            691,546    Urdu speakers
