Wikipedia takes down edit option for ‘Calibri’ wiki after Pakistanis try changing font’s release date
Online Encyclopedia, Wikipedia, has given protected status to the its entry on the Microsoft office default font after a significant number of people in quick succession attempted to edit the date of its release to the public.

The online resource website’s decision to give the seemingly harmless font’s page protected status comes after it has become a source of a major headache for the PML-N. The political party managed to get itself deeper entangled in the Panama leaks case when the case’s investigative team’s report said that documents dated 2006 were typed in the Calibri font which was not introduced until February 2007.

The immediate response of the PML-N supporters seems to have been to go online and edit the font’s Wikipedia page to somehow salvage some semblance of proof or backing. The changes were however met with even more changes coming from others that reverted the dates back to what they really were and at times even way before that.

The farce was soon handled by Wikipedia however as the increased activity turned their attention towards the topic and they quickly disabled the edit option on the page. While it has not been given permanent protected status given its nature, it has been protected from any editing until July 18.

Doob marny ka mukam ha PMLN supporters ka lea!!

Sari duniya mein mulk badnaam kr rahy hain

Shame on these corrupt thugs.

Just note that these attemtps are ONLY to misguide and FOOL the public, YOU, to score some points. It have no value for the case or in court as the official documents have confirmation from Microsoft. All this effort was to make YOU an Idiot!

Bhai jan!, let them challenge this. I want them to challenge the forensic firms opinion in SC. The next thing SC will order is ink dating of the signatures (as the forensic firm also said in its report that the exact period of when the document was signed can be known by ink dating)..

Uss ke baad kuttay wali jo hogi inn ke saath uss ka andaza lagaein zara!
