Content removed from Human rights in Afghanistan edit

Hello. I removed most of the content you added to Human rights in Afghanistan because it did not appear to be up to our sourcing standards. Specifically:

Article 7 of the Constitution of Afghanistan guarantees that women are not discriminated against and are legally protected[1]. Such legal protection is wanting under the Taliban-led Islamic Republic of Afghanistan, which deprives women of access to education, health and nutritional services[2]. Despite the current administration's initial reassurances to the contrary, existing legal protections are being abandoned[3].

Please note that the 2004 Constitution of Afghanistan is no longer in force as the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan (which was never Taliban-led) no longer exists. Your source referring to initial assurances to the contrary is from several months before the current administration was set up. There are also no existing legal protections under the Taliban government—only vague promises.

The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) 2018 Gender Inequality index listed Afghanistan in the group of countries with the lowest ranking of gender inequality. This has only worsened with the Taliban takeover: girls attend schools at less than half the rate of boys[4]

I do not see information about the 2018 Gender Inequality index at this source, nor do I see anything about the Taliban takeover or the education rate of girls being half that of boys.

Due to the decrease of women’s rights since 2021 and also the government proposals to change the constitution to undermine women's rights even further, Afghan societies have expressed great concern[5].

I'm not sure what you mean by "Afghan societies"—this is too vague.

The United Nations Assistance Mission in Afghanistan acknowledges the current challenges in future legislation to root out violence against women[6].

Lastly, the source you cited for this sentence is from several months before the Taliban takeover. I left your content added to the "Law and order" section in place. Please note that punctuation should be added before reference tags, not after. I also removed your additions to Women in Afghanistan as they created errors on the page—I have not reviewed the content of those edits. ― Tartan357 Talk 09:12, 14 May 2022 (UTC) Reply
