File:Niaz yahoo.png missing description details

Dear uploader: The media file you uploaded as:

File:Niaz yahoo.png

is missing a description and/or other details on its image description page. If possible, please add this information. This will help other editors make better use of the image, and it will be more informative to readers.

If the information is not provided, the image may eventually be proposed for deletion, a situation which is not desirable, and which can easily be avoided.

Orphaned non-free media (File:Ewu logo.PNG)

Thanks for uploading File:Ewu logo.PNG. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Misplaced Pages under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Misplaced Pages. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Misplaced Pages (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Misplaced Pages page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:15, 2 May 2013 (UTC)

Main Page appearance

Hello! This is a note to let the main editors of the article List of universities in Bangladesh know that it will be appearing as the main page featured list on March 7, 2014. You can view the TFL blurb at Misplaced Pages:Today's featured list/March 7, 2014. If you think it is necessary to change the main date, you can request it with the featured list directors Giants2008 (talk · contribs), Crisco 1492 (talk · contribs) or SchroCat (talk · contribs), or at Misplaced Pages talk:Today's featured list. If the previous blurb needs tweaking, you might change it—following the instructions of the suggested formatting. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page so Misplaced Pages doesn't look bad. Thanks! © Tbhotch (en-2.5). 22:15, 16 February 2014 (UTC)

Of the 87 universities in Bangladesh, 52 are in Dhaka, the capital city. Out of the 6 divisions of Bangladesh, Dhaka Division houses 58 of the country's universities. The University of Dhaka (Curzon Hall pictured), established in 1921, is the oldest university of the country. The country's universities are mainly categorized into three different types: public, private, and international. Most universities focus on general studies, mixing together such areas of study as business, engineering and technology. Seven universities have specialized curricula. Two of these are focused on Islamic studies, two on agricultural science, one on healthcare science, one on veterinary medicine, and one on women's studies. Bangladeshi universities are affiliated with the University Grants Commission, a commission created according to presidential order.
