Talk:Bangladesh

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.

" 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I dont understand why people here keep on editing GDP either outdated 2023 figure or overestimated by outdated projections.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, and , it was  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)
 * 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)
 * The Democratic backsliding is easily sourced .. it should be in the article somewhere..... as this place is generally the example of democratic backsliding as of late. Since 2014 "IEDA has marks Bangladesh as authoritarian regime".. Best comeup with something or others will. Moxy -Maple Leaf (Pantone).svg 03:02, 9 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Democratic Backsliding is not an authoritarian regime, I also want to add that the Economist classifies Bangladesh as a hybrid regime as does freedom house . I agree we should add it but not under government type.  Nurusa101 (talk) 21:39, 9 January 2024 (UTC)

Gallup survey and the census
@Soetermans @Yung Yohan I started a discussion on the user page of yung yohan but this seems to be a better place.

Both of you guys are messing with the 2022 census results and combining it with a 2015 survey which doesn't even mention the 86% figure for islam as gallup only talks about religious, not religious and atheist so why remove the 91% figure for those who said they were muslim in the 2022 census and make it 86% muslim when the 2015 gallup survey doesn't even mention islam?

Inteqaam (talk) 10:27, 28 January 2024 (UTC)


 * you can change islam back to 90% as it is mentioned in 2022 Census Yung Yohan (talk) 12:34, 28 January 2024 (UTC)
 * yes 2402:B400:4468:EAE5:0:0:305A:36D9 (talk) 14:44, 29 January 2024 (UTC)

Under the religion section, the information of which is stated to have been taken from the 2022_Bangladeshi_census, does not match up with the actual page. Please edit and put down the actual information, whichever is the right set. Thank you. 2604:3D09:1489:8400:FC06:6FDD:56D:BC7F (talk) 05:02, 29 January 2024 (UTC)
