ACM ICPC Dhaka Site

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Declined PROD; my concern was is that it has exclusively local weak third-party coverage, and that even that comes from only two newspapers. w umbolo  ^^^  20:00, 19 July 2018 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Comment Could you link to the coverage you're talking about, and relate that to our policies and guidelines? Nearly every English-language news source in Bangladesh is national ("local" to Bangladesh, a country of 160 million people) or local to Dhaka, a metropolitan area of 19.5 million people ("local" only in the sense that The New York Times is local to New York, or The Times is local to London). --Worldbruce (talk) 15:26, 20 July 2018 (UTC)
 * One of the newspapers is the Dhaka Tribune (articles ). The other is the Daily Star which I mistakenly thought was a Dhaka newspaper (articles   ). Not local then, but I'd say that most of these articles are promotional, short or only give the competition a slight mention.  w umbolo   ^^^  16:05, 20 July 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep as there is much coverage in national newspapers as partly shown by the examples above particularly the second reference which is much more than a mention, passes WP:GNG, thanks Atlantic306 (talk) 16:01, 3 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Merge to ACM International Collegiate Programming Contest. I don't think there's enough coverage for a standalone article. I read the sources above, including the second reference, and arrived at the conclusion that the coverage seems mostly routine. Enterprisey (talk!) 04:19, 9 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep Since 1997 ACM ICPC Dhaka site prgoram held regularly. It is the national highest level programming contest. Its may need more reference. I am sure so many coverage got from local Bangladeshi media where the news publihsed in Bengali language. NC Hasive  •  talk  • 15:38, 9 August 2018 (UTC)
