== Thal Desert in Punjab, Pakistan ==
I have noticed that you have made a couple edits about the Thal desert in the Thal disambiguation page. However, I have removed some content, since its degree of depth is not exactly suitable for a disambiguation page:
Thal is a large sand desert in Punjab, Pakistan. It is located in/bounded by Jhang, Khushab, Minawali, Dera Ismail Khan, Bhakkar, Layyah, Muzaffargarrh Districts in western punjab. Two big rivers Jhelum(Jehlum) and Sind(Mehran, Indus) flow on both sides of Thal river. Jhelum merges in river Chanab(Chenab) at Trimmu Barage in Jhang and Chanab and Sind merge at Panjnad at the end of Thal. Thal is end of Punjab's agricultural plane lands. Koh-e-Suleman(Suleman's Mountains) and Kohistan-e-Namak(Salt Mountains) and Pothohar Planes bound Thal in North and West. Thal and its surroundings have been center of several ancient civilizations like Gandhara(Budh Culture), Siwi Kingdom(Pre-historic Indian Culture), Loh Kot, Kafir Kot, etc . Currently, Thal is mostly unpopulated and uncultivated area. A small portion is supplied water by Chashma irrigation system which is still under development.
Nonetheless, you may be interested in including this in the separate article for the Thal Desert - Just be sure to cite your sources. Happy editing! +A.Ou 19:23, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
