Speedy deletion nomination of Bangladesh–Chile relations
Hello Nomian,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Bangladesh–Chile relations for deletion, because it's too short to identify the subject of the article.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Rafaelgriffin (talk) 16:23, 16 January 2014 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Bangladesh–Slovakia relations
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a notice to inform you that a tag has been placed on Bangladesh–Slovakia relations requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. CombieTractor 20:16, 17 January 2014 (UTC)

WikiProject assessment tags for talk pages
Thank you for your recent articles, including Bangladesh–Poland relations, which I read with interest. When you create a new article, can you add the WikiProject assessment templates to the talk of that article? See the talk page of the article I mentioned for an example of what I mean. Usually it is very simple, you just add something like {{WikiProject Keyword}} to the article's talk, with keyword replaced by the associated WikiProject (ex. if it's a biography article, you would use WikiProject Biography; if it's a United States article, you would use WikiProject United States, and so on). You do not have to rate the article if you do not want to, others will do it eventually. Those templates are very useful, as they bring the articles to a WikiProject attention, and allow them to start tracking the articles through Wikipedia:Article alerts and other tools. This can help you too, as the WikiProject members will often defend your work from deletion and try to improve it further. Feel free to ask me any questions if you'd like more information.

You actually deserve a South-South barnstar. Good to see the expansion of coverage on Bangladesh foreign relations : )--Bazaan (talk) 13:04, 26 March 2014 (UTC) |

Middle power
Thanks for your recent edits on middle power. It looks like a recent edit of yours changed a bunch of minor things unintentionally, perhaps because you accidentally saved an older version of the page? I have tried to restore the intermediate edits that were lost as well as maintain your changes; hopefully I haven't missed anything. Thanks, Beland (talk) 17:54, 16 September 2014 (UTC)
- You have missed the most important part, someone wrongly put India in the great power list which is actually a middle power. Anyway, I am fixing it up. Regards Nomian (talk) 19:01, 22 September 2014 (UTC)

Please stop adding unsourced content to articles. Adding broken links or citations to non-existent sources is not the same things as "providing sources". You have an obligation to provide sources and I have every right to remove content you have added for which a source has not been provided. Beyond that, re-adding information which is promotional in nature, badly-worded or in language that makes little sense is not productive and is plainly disruptive. I'm sorry you spent a considerable amount of time creating articles for subjects that don't meet our inclusion guidelines but that doesn't give you the right to edit-war to add unsourced content to those articles. St★lwart111 20:53, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
- I don't know what childish game you're playing but edit-warring and then templating a regular editor with inapplicable nonesense is just silly. You are reverting edits that involved far more than the removal of non-existent references. Given your disingenuous sourcing of other articles, and given the WP:BURDEN is on you to verify the content you are trying to add, you need to use the talk pages of those articles (per WP:BRD) to gain consensus for the addition of unsourced content, poor grammar, poor English and flowery language you keep reverting the removal of. Actually have a look at the edits in question rather than just blindly edit-warring because you don't understand policy. I have no qualms about reporting you and your disruptive edits speak for themselves. St★lwart111 14:53, 28 January 2015 (UTC)
- Stop. Now. WP:Link rot is a how-to guide, not a policy and it doesn't give you the right to edit-war to add un-sourced content and claims to articles. Your un-sourced claims have been challenged. Your next step is to take them to the talk page for discussion. St★lwart111 14:59, 28 January 2015 (UTC)
- They are not unsourced, you are just blanking these articles to have them deleted. This is clear violation of WP:Civility and WP:Assume good faith. If the links are not working then consider them as offline sources, sources don't have to be online always. And I have told you in edit summaries to google the news titles which will prove the sources exist. Nomian (talk) 15:12, 28 January 2015 (UTC)
- I haven't blanked a single article, in fact I added information based on the few sources that did exist and could be used to verify claims made. You're blindly edit-warring to cut-paste roll-back a series of edits because you disagree (contrary to policy) with one of them. I'm happy to assume good faith but given your disingenuous suggestions that some primary sources are secondary sources and the obvious misrepresentation of other sources to make some blatantly exaggerated claims, you no longer get a "free pass" where WP:V and WP:RS are concerned. I'm not going to "assume" the sources you say exist actually exist. You "google them", you find them, you bring them to article talk pages and you gain consensus for adding information once it can be verified. That's how this works.

Your next step is to take them to the talk page for discussion. St★lwart111 14:59, 28 January 2015 (UTC)
- Your nonsense accusations without a scrap of evidence are a clear and blatant personal attack. I request that you strike them and (again) read what has been written, read the edits made and read relevant policies. St★lwart111 15:36, 28 January 2015 (UTC)
- Personal attacks are those false accusations that you are putting against me, I never made any unsourced claims. You are removing the sources, blanking the articles and now saying I added unsourced contents. This is simply disruptive. Nomian (talk) 15:51, 28 January 2015 (UTC)
- There seem to be a possible editor-targeting going on. Guys keep it civil, no need to take these things so personally. --Zayeem (talk) 09:14, 31 January 2015 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Azerbaijan–Bangladesh relations
Hi Nomain! I appreciate all that you done in the foreign relations articles, more so as a Bangladeshi. Bangladesh recognizing the country in 1992 or the support in territorial dispute in not noteworthy, special or notable. A more interesting article could be Bangladesh-North Korea, Vietnam, Denmark etc. I do not feel the relationship has enough content to merit a full article.I could be wrong, I remain open to changing my opinion if you can provide more content with citation, with regards Vinegarymass911 (talk) 17:08, 30 June 2015 (UTC)
- Vinegarymass911, thanks a lot for your appreciation, it means a lot. I am actually planning to create those articles but I have had a rough time in Wikipedia recently which is discouraging me to create more articles. Actually, sources from Bangladeshi news portals are hard to come by, so I have to rely on whatever I get. Yet I found seven reliable sources with significant coverage, don't you think it's enough to be notable according to the general notability guidelines? Besides, the two countries have signed three agreements with each other. Nomian (talk) 22:58, 30 June 2015 (UTC)
- Don't get discouraged, you are doing good work. Even if the article is deleted, don't take it personally, it happens. If you need any help with any article please let me know. Sources are difficult, I recently worked on the seven Bir Sreshtho and it was difficult to find any source. Vinegarymass911 (talk) 03:48, 2 July 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks bro. I will try my best. Nomian (talk) 21:00, 2 July 2015 (UTC)

Hi Nomian. You moved Look East policy to Look East policy (India), but that is an unnecessary disambiguation. Even if Look East policy (Bangladesh) was created as suggested in Diff of Look East policy, the Indian Look East policy would likely be Wikipedia:PRIMARYTOPIC with a hatnote to Look East policy (Bangladesh) if it existed. I suggest we move Look East policy (India) back, but what do you think? — Sam Sailor Talk! 10:13, 5 August 2016 (UTC) (please mention me on reply)
- Dear Sam Sailor, I don't think there is any primary topic for Look East policy because it's not only Bangladesh, even Saudi Arabia [1], Iran [2], Malaysia [3], Zimbabwe [4] and may be some other countries also have been pursuing this policy. Several more articles may be created on this topic. So I think it will be better if we keep that disambiguation. Nomian (talk) 15:00, 5 August 2016 (UTC)
A brownie for you!
Welcome back. Vinegarymass911 (talk) 00:41, 15 August 2016 (UTC) |

WikiCup 2020 September newsletter
The fourth round of the competition has finished, with 865 points being required to qualify for the final round, nearly twice as many points as last year.

- HaEr48 with 1318 points gained mainly from 2 featured articles, 5 good articles and 8 DYKs;
