 * It is Press-release, fails WP:SIRS.
 * Thanks for understanding M.parvage (talk) 06:58, 12 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Comment. I added some additional references. The article in Dredging Today is not a press release. It was written by a staff writer, Eldin Ganic, according to that web page. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 07:28, 12 June 2023 (UTC)


 * Keep I have added three sources as well, including two that extensively cover the history of the shipyard. This is a situation where a good WP:BEFORE exercise could have been carried out before bringing the nomination. There are dozens of scholarly articles and even more web cites discussing this subject at various levels of detail. Even if notability was not obvious from the article as it stood several days ago, per WP:NEXIST notability is based on the existence of suitable sources, not on the state of sourcing in an article.

 * Keep I added to Talk:Khulna Shipyard half a dozen independent, reliable, secondary sources which demonstrate that that topic does meet WP:NCORP. --Worldbruce (talk) 15:29, 13 June 2023 (UTC)
