Say NO to too many items[edit]

Plese do not add plenty of names in promonent educational institute or places of interest lists. If you add to many items that will decrease the importance of all the items. Stick to top 5 or top 10 principle.That will increase the quality of the article.Al-minar (talk) 06:37, 17 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I totally agree with Al-minar. Please do not add many items in the lists as it will just discard the value of the whole article.Hossain Akhtar Chowdhury (talk) 06:23, 18 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Add photographs please[edit]

The article lacks photo miserably. Would anybody upload photographs of say..New Railway Station, Kal Bhoirob temple, Zia Fertilizer, etc in the article?This will improve the quality of the article remarkably.Hossain Akhtar Chowdhury (talk) 06:29, 18 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Brahmanbaria articles[edit]

According to WP:BDPLACE, which is currently being considered for adopting and reflects general norm of naming articles, recommends that: (1) Brahmanbaria should be about the town (settlement/locality) and (2) Brahmanbaria District shall be about the administrative unit (territory). Also, the name should be official full name, i.e. Brahmanbaria and not B-Baria etc. In last couple of days, there had been a lot of moves and the history is a mess. At this point, when I am writing this, both articles are in rightful place. PLEASE discuss before doing any move and STATE YOUR RATIONALE before doing any moves. – nafSadh did say 07:11, 17 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed merge with List of colleges and universities in Brahmanbaria[edit]

There is nothing different in this page than what is covered in Brahmanbaria District already. Arun Kumar SINGH (Talk) 14:53, 5 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Although there is overlap between the two, List of colleges and universities in Brahmanbaria, unlike article Brahmanbaria District, contains a list of 34 colleges that would be unwelcome (because of length and detail) in the district article. As the article and list develop, I would hope and expect that the three tables in the education section of the district article (the current overlap) would be removed or replaced with one or more paragraphs of text. It also seems likely that the list will eventually grow in scope to be more like List of universities and schools in Khulna or List of educational institutes of Sylhet. --Worldbruce (talk) 18:34, 10 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed merge of Upazilas of Brahmanbaria[edit]

Happiest persoN proposed on 21 November 2015 that Upazilas of Brahmanbaria be merged into Brahmanbaria District. Bangla1234, the former article's original author, immediately removed the merge template, so evidently the idea is controversial.

Merge - The content of Upazilas of Brahmanbaria is redundant. It duplicates content in the Administration section of Brahmanbaria District (and in Upazilas of Bangladesh). Worldbruce (talk) 06:39, 15 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Agree - The content is redundant. Given the frequency with which upazila boundaries are redrawn, it is particularly important in this case that maintenance becomes more difficult if the content is duplicated. Sminthopsis84 (talk) 15:36, 15 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Merge - As i proposed already because of duplicate information. Happiest persoN (talk) 13:18, 24 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Merging Economy of Brahmanbaria[edit]

Hello Everyone, The page Economy of Brahmanbaria is differ than Brahmanbaria District. It's about Brahmanbaria's economy. There are many information added and we will add more. --Bangla1234 (talk) 21:47, 5 March 2016 (UTC) Bangla1234 (talk)[reply]

Who is we? I don't think there is enough sourced content to warrant a separate article. Pinging Happiest persoN, Worldbruce, and Sminthopsis84 for thoughts based on participation above. — JJMC89 (T·C) 21:53, 5 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I think merger is appropriate. The material about railway lines and stations should be on the district page, but also if there is a railway enthusiast available to do the work, much more content could be built on pages dedicated to these subjects. Sminthopsis84 (talk) 22:27, 5 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. I haven't moved the rail material to a different page, but perhaps that could be done subsequently; the merge has been

Geography:[edit]

The section is grossly incomplete. In the second line it says "the Prime Minister gave permission to use Ashuganj Port..." but does not say to whom. Presumably to the Indians. This section requires rewriting based on proper sources which I lack. Abul Bakhtiar (talk) 10:00, 25 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
