This article was tagged as an A7 by User:FULBERT, and contested by User:Phil Bridger. The subject appears to fail WP:BASIC. His name is only mentioned in passing in the article's two sources. I also found his name mentioned in Indian Navy and the Dhaka Tribune, but nothing close to significant coverage. – Lord Bolingbroke (talk) 23:02, 4 June 2019 (UTC)

 * Keep. Passes this criterion of WP:NMILITARY: "Held a rank considered to be a flag, general or air officer, or their historical equivalent" He is a commodore in the Bangladesh Navy, a rank with a  NATO rank code of OF-6, what would be a one-star rank in United States usage.

 * Ok, but can you find any additional sources? WP:NMILITARY says that people are presumed to have significant coverage if they meet one of the criteria in that guideline, not that all commodores qualify for a Wikipedia article. After having done a WP:BEFORE, I'm just not finding any significant coverage. – Lord Bolingbroke (talk) 02:43, 5 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep. Commodores pass WP:SOLDIER. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:26, 5 June 2019 (UTC)
 * According to WP:SOLDIER, "[T]hose who are only mentioned in passing in reliable secondary sources should not be considered notable for the purposes of a stand-alone article". I believe that is the case here, and have yet to see evidence to the contrary. – Lord Bolingbroke (talk) 16:05, 5 June 2019 (UTC)
 * In general, we keep articles on anyone who qualifies. Always have done. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:31, 6 June 2019 (UTC)
 * At the very least a search in Bengali would be needed to overcome the presumption of notability. Have you done such a search? Phil Bridger (talk) 08:17, 12 June 2019 (UTC)


 * Strongly Keep. He is a notable person from Bangladesh, He is one of the Bangladeshi top rank Commodore.-Nahal (talk) 13:50, 12 June 2019 (UTC)
