Bangladesh
Bangladesh has the longest sea beach in the world. 103.137.108.163 (talk) 15:34, 11 February 2023 (UTC)

Images
In this edit, @Imamul Ifaz claimed an image from 2015 was more recent than the one he replaced (taken in 2022). He is clearly giving false justifications in his edit summaries to game the system. This is extremely disingenuous. Solomon The Magnifico (talk) 07:50, 29 May 2023 (UTC)
- Nauka baich is a sport not a festival. Eid is a festival read Eid al-Fitr and Nouka Baich. Also there is no claim North South University is the largest university of Bangladesh. How did you even come up with that.
- And Dargah doesn't represent a country's religion. It could be part of a separate section of Islam. Imamul Ifaz (talk) 09:19, 29 May 2023 (UTC)
- An institute is an organization that is set up to do a particular type of work, especially research or teaching. Institutes can be public or private, and they can be large or small. Some common types of institutes include:
- Research institutes, which conduct research in a particular field
- Educational institutes, which provide education in a particular field
- Professional institutes, which provide training and support for professionals in a particular field
- Cultural institutes, which promote and preserve a particular culture
- Social institutes, which address social problems
- I believe who doesn't have a basic English knowledge should be banned from editing wikipedia. @Worldbruce I hope you see this. Imamul Ifaz (talk) 09:24, 29 May 2023 (UTC)
- That is a personal attack and if @Worldbruce (who is biased against me) condones this, that would be very unfortunate. Solomon The Magnifico (talk) 10:31, 29 May 2023 (UTC)
- You don't know the meaning of a basic English word "institute" and accused me of misusing the word. It has nothing to do with personal attack. You are doing Argument from ignorance

- WP:Wikihounding Argument from ignorance is not allowed in wikipedia. @QuicoleJR why are you quite on this?

- I believe you and @Alalch E. are very supportive towards him. Im suspecting these 3 are the same accounts. Imamul Ifaz (talk) 17:30, 29 May 2023 (UTC)
- Sockpuppetry is a severe accusation. It should never be made without evidence. QuicoleJR (talk) 17:53, 29 May 2023 (UTC)

Too long (June 2023)
Currently the article is appropriately tagged as too long, at 105kB of readable prose. Do editors have any ideas for how best to shorten it? —Alalch E. 08:54, 23 June 2023 (UTC)
- History byte count of India is 22,175. History byte count of Bangladesh is 101,741. ~4.6 times larger. India is a featured article. Conclusion: The history content in this article must be summarized.—Alalch E. 17:53, 23 June 2023 (UTC)
Education
I am editing the article Bangladesh section is Education,
"Students who pass the PEC examination proceed to secondary or matriculation training, culminating in the SSC examination.
[1]" It is wrong information because it should say: "Students who pass the JSC (Junior School Certificate) examination proceed to secondary or matriculation training, culminating in the SSC examination." so I Changed the information, if i am wrong feel free to edit.

GDP 2023 Estimation
IMF has forecasted the GDP of Bangladesh for FY 23/24 but the current article is backdated as it is showing the 2022 estimation which is 460$ billion dollars but it should be 486$ billion dollars as of the current estimation. So I want to request edit on this topic as I myself cannot edit it Sifat1765 (talk) 09:24, 7 December 2023 (UTC)
Captions of the National Anthem
The Bangladesh National Anthem does not have captions as of now. Could someone add it. 116.206.253.163 (talk) 12:24, 10 December 2023 (UTC)

Test edits on GDP
I dont understand why people here keep on editing GDP either outdated 2023 figure or overestimated by outdated projections. IMF never published erroneous figures so stop the urge of editing it. I felt sorry for people believing high GDP figures reflects the status of their economy. Maoylord (talk) 12:18, 4 January 2024 (UTC)
Government type in infobox
Hi Nurusa101, Yoshi24517 and Gråbergs Gråa Sång, it was HapHaxion who added the description a couple of days ago. It was removed later by Nurusa101. HapHaxion re-added and expanded the bit a couple of hours ago. Since then there have been several reverts. I am not involved myself, could you please discuss it? soetermans. ↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK 20:34, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
- The edit was unnecessary and doesnt follow the conventions of this encylcopdia. Other countries that are described as "becoming autocratic" are not marked as such like Hungary, Pakistan, Algeria, Tunisia, India , etc and this principle must be applied to this page as well Nurusa101 (talk) 20:40, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
- Yeah, my reaction was TBH mostly to the cite-error and apparent removal of sources. Looking at the context again, it seems the infobox "Unitary parliamentary republic under an authoritarian state" does not match current article content, and the refs in the infobox seems very recent. So, I'm not wedded to "my" version. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 20:41, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
- So should we revert back to Unitary Parlimentary Republic? Nurusa101 (talk) 20:43, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
- I've done so. Infobox (at least this part of it) should not deviate from article content, it's for simple uncontroversial stuff, hopefully sourced in the article already. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 20:53, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
- Well, that didn't last long. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 21:25, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
- Thaanks!! Nurusa101 (talk) 22:24, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
- I also want anyone to know that tries to change the government type without consensus from here on out, it will be marked as vandalism after warnings. Nurusa101 (talk) 01:58, 9 January 2024 (UTC)
