help

Proposed format

I have proposed a format for Bengali literature article on its talk page (Talk:Bengali_literature#Proposed_format). Could you please come and express your views and opinions or update this format? Cheers. -- Niaz 14:17, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

Necessity knows no law

Dear Ragib, thanks for arising this issue regarding the images of our Birs. Actually, for a long time there is none images of our birs, so I did that, as a senior editor you can delete those. I do not have any interest to edit articles rather than Bangladehi Article. Relax if possible, or delete if you feel it was wrong. Wish your good luck. --Librarianpmolib (talk) 04:05, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

Couldn't find anything to fill in the blanks for the images. They may have to go till we find a solid solutions. Should I suggest a fair use upload to the Librarian? Aditya 08:43, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

I believe fair use would be the only solution until we get permission of the photos. I'm optimistic about that ... Munir bhai has already obtained permission from Prof. Rafiqul Islam to use his famous Language movement photos. I think he is in touch with Matiur Rahman's family, so his photos will also be available. Don't know whether photos of other Bir Sreshthos exist or not ... --Ragib (talk) 08:53, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

I believe that so. By the way, Mr. Munir Hasan is perosnally known to me and he has got the permission to use the photograph of or Language Movement, he donated me a book titled A photographic History of Language Movement (1947-1956). Actually we can share us with a positive view all the time. Please see the list of Bir Uttom, currently I will complete the list of our all birs. In the meanttime I have completed the list of Bir Shreshtho. Keep watch me because I am a younger editor. --Librarianpmolib (talk) 04:21, 24 March 2008 (UTC)

Sitakunda Upazila

The article on Sitakunda Upazila has gone for a second peer review. It really needs some merciless review, as I ma trying to deck it up for an FAC as soon as possible. It also needs a thorough copyedit and a request has already been posted to WP:LOCE, but a response still lies firmly in the future. Please, take a look (lend a hand, too, if possible).

Keshub image and Village Pump thread

Dear Ragib. I have uploaded my concerns to the Village Pump thread, duly noting what Dragon(?) had posted. I have noted u as a "Friendly" and this is the way it shud be plz, as some of the V.Pump (policy) bitterness repel me. Bikash 69.50.160.154 (talk) 05:41, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

Deshipedian:The next steps

Please take a look at Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Bangladesh/Competition#The next phase of the Competition and provide your comments there. Arman 07:17, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

Image copyrights

I have replied to your image copyright posting at INB and Village pump. In the past, I have found WP:MCQ to be a very useful resource for image copyright queries since it seems to be populated by knowledgeable editors. The issue is pretty straightforward in this particular instance but I am pointing out the link for future reference. Regards. Abecedare (talk) 18:31, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

Help

I thought you can help here. I want to use some references for the article Meghna Bridge.

• Is banglavasha.com RS?
• Is Discoverybangladesh.com RS?
• Is this RS?
• Is this RS?
• Is Banglapedia RS?

I am especially confused with the first, second and last source. Otolemur crassicaudatus (talk) 01:21, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

Answers are below:

• Is banglavasha.com RS?

• • Doesn't seem like an RS to me. I mean, this is not any reputable organization ... and I also suspect they copied info off somewhere else.

• Is Discoverybangladesh.com RS?

• • Same as above

• Is this RS?

• • No idea about this engineering firm.

Sorry to butt in. Nippon Koei apparently has some notability. See this, this, this, this and this. Thanks. Aditya 05:11, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

• Is this RS?
  • Not a well-known columnist or writer.

Sorry again that I butt in. Momtazuddin Bhuiyan apparently has written a book Bangladesh on the Road to Development, and is pretty active in Bangladesh-Japan relations arena. He also is indeed a naval architect. Not much else I could find. Aditya 05:16, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

• Is Banglapedia RS?
  • Banglapedia is definitely very notable. This is a print encyclopedia compiled by the Asiatic Society of Bangladesh, with grants from BD Govt. However, the site you linked to is probably not the real Banglapedia site... that would be www.banglapedia.org . (Since the encyclopedia was also released in digital media, many websites pirated the content). --Ragib (talk) 02:29, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

OK. So I can use Banglapedia. Thanks to you both. Otolemur crassicaudatus (talk) 09:16, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

recent Brahmo Samaj edits

Ragib, your caution is much appreciated. It is nowhere near being (yet) a revert / edit "war", nor is there a content "dispute". There is adequate communication between recent editors at Brahmo Samaj via the edit summaries - not (yet) requiring resort to discussion pages. In the course of providing appropriate (and acceptable) citations, there are bound to be differences between editors in the "manner" and "style" of presentation of content in the article. The Talk pages and dispute redressal forums are always available if required. BTW the previous issue on your talk page,ie. of clone "Banglapedia" sites was not known to me, and I shall henceforth use the .org site if the same content is available there. I am also copying this to Brahmo Samaj Talk. Landirenzo (talk) 06:37, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

Kushtia District

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Kushtia District, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Misplaced Pages's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Misplaced Pages is not" and Misplaced Pages's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}} to the top of Kushtia District.

AfD nomination of Illegal Bangladeshis living in India

An editor has nominated Illegal Bangladeshis living in India, an article which you have created or worked on, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Misplaced Pages's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Misplaced Pages is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Illegal Bangladeshis living in India and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 00:00, 5 April 2008 (UTC)

Bengali Misplaced Pages

I am not sure how much I can do now. But I can do review/verify etc. Currently, the font there is a bit small and I don't feel comfortable with that. About the other issue, I replied in my talk page, just in case someone else wants to talk about the same issue. Thanks.GDibyendu (talk) 04:38, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for your links. Bengali font is working well now. Keyboard is nice. Very good info.GDibyendu (talk) 17:07, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

Hi!

Hi Ragib. I matched in University of Connecticut health center. Will be moving in July. Hope we'd meet soon :)--Dwaipayan (talk) 18:05, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

Shaheed Minar Outside Bangladesh

Hi Ragib, I noticed you removed the section from Shaheed Minar page. Fair enough. I am very new in Misplaced Pages. I created the "International Mother Language Day Monument" page mainly to learn about Misplaced Pages. It has been marked for deletion. That's ok too. Could you please tell me when the article is deleted does the photo get deleted too? I would like to keep the photo in another page, "International Mother Language Day". I think it is more relevant in there. Thanks - Anisur —Preceding unsigned comment added by Anisur57 (talk • contribs) 06:40, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

Feedback requested in an RfC

Hi Ragib, I am wondering if you might like to weigh in on an RfC that I initiated earlier this week. I fear that the discussion there has degenerated. I'm aware that you might not know anything specific about the language concerned (which I don't either), but since you wrote an FA on the Bengali language, I thought you opinion might be valuable. I've tried to explain this more precisely in my statement (at the expense of using too many words which I hope you don't find too off-putting). Needless to say, if you do decide to say something, I don't expect you to say anything in support of my position, only to provide you best opinion. Request for comment: When does the literary tradition in a language begin? Regards, Fowler&fowler«Talk» 21:40, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:1tk.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:1tk.jpg. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Misplaced Pages's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check

• That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's escription page for each article the image is used in.
• That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.
