Tagged for notability since 2012. Wikipedia has articles about many of her relatives, but notability is not inherited. Her website says she won two awards, but there's nothing about them in independent sources, and they are not well-known and significant enough to meet WP:ANYBIO. Of the five cited sources, sydneybashi-bangla.com is a photo spread of her in a private home; banglamusic.com and Banglapedia don't mention her; and the last two are the websites of her and her daughter. Searches of the usual Google types, including by Bengali script, found nothing more than brief mentions. Worldbruce (talk) 12:54, 8 August 2021 (UTC)

 * Comment: the award from the Shilpakala Academy seems like an indicator of notability (and her main period of prominence is pre-internet, so the lack of online coverage is unconcerning), so I'd be pushing for "keep", but if the copyvio issues aren't dealt with immediately, it ought to be speedy deleted.

 * The only source I've found for that award is her website. She may have received it, but we don't usually take a subject's word for it. The Shilpakala Academy is a significant institution (some may note that her husband was a director general of it). But I haven't found any other information about a "Gunijon Shambardhana" - not when it was established, who received it, why it was awarded, or what it consisted of - it isn't a well-known and significant award. It is supposedly from 2006, so one would expect some online sources. I have an extensive personal library on Bangladeshi topics, and have found no sources there either. Of course, mine isn't as comprehensive as a major research university library. Those in my area are scheduled to reopen to the public in the next few months. I'm willing to withdraw the nomination until I can search them if there's widespread belief that sources must exist. --Worldbruce (talk) 21:06, 11 August 2021 (UTC)
 * I think it is a spelling error for "Gunijan Shambardhana" which delivers a few hits for various people on google... So does the other award. But I'm quite willing to believe that sources don't exist if they cannot be found. Furius (talk) 00:12, 12 August 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete i spent almost 15 minutes to search for the sources (including in Bangladeshi language for ফৌজিয়া ইয়াসমিন) to verify for the subject's award Shilpakala Academy, but unfortunately, i returned with empty handed. In fact, Bangla Wikipedia article is also tagged with sourcing concerns. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 12:17, 23 August 2021 (UTC)
