235-360 CE The area where Lahore was located belonged to the Sassanid Empire during this time prior to Gupta rule. Thus someone please add the relevant icon and name in the history of Lahore timeline box which I originally created. Ultraprime12345 (talk) 20:52, 21 October 2025 (UTC)Reply

Third Sasanian-Kushan War
In the east around 350, Shapur II gained the upper hand against the Kushano-Sasanian Kingdom, who captured some territories against the Sasanians, and took control of large territories in areas now known as Afghanistan and Pakistan, possibly as a consequence of the destruction of the Kushano-Sasanians by the Chionites. The Kushano-Sasanian still ruled in the north. Important finds of Sasanian coinage beyond the Indus river in the city of Taxila only start with the reigns of Shapur II (r.309-379) and Shapur III (r.383-388), suggesting that the expansion of Sasanian control beyond the Indus was the result of the wars of Shapur II "with the Chionites and Kushans" in 350-358 as described by Ammianus Marcellinus.

The Kushan Shahs were a branch of Sassanid Persian Empire who filled the power vacuum in 3rd and 4th Century AD left by declining Kushan Empire. Ultraprime12345 (talk) 00:50, 22 October 2025 (UTC)Reply

@Innocent Paki you had replaced several images in the infobox. Can you tell how you think they are better representative for the article than previous? Sutyarashi (talk) 13:02, 18 November 2025 (UTC)Reply

In the economy section, please update an image with "File:Lahore Skyline.png". The image showcases high rises in the background showcasing the skyline of Lahore which other cities have in their Wikipedia articles. I believe this is a substantial edit that improves the economy section by showcasing recent developments and current high rise trend. Afnan Ghani (talk) 03:35, 22 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

 Not done: In my opinion, this is not a particularly good photo of the skyline, as the foreground is dominated by the stands of a stadium and the buildings are completely in the background. It would also be more appropriate for the "Cityscape" section. Day Creature (talk) 15:30, 22 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
then why not have it for cityscape inplace of that old one? I'd say it has a more modern look or the best one we can get because wikimedia commons has partial block in Pakistan unfortunately. Afnan Ghani (talk) 17:30, 22 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
