 * Objection to Deletion - "The following are presumed to be notable for Politician and Judges. Major local political figures who have received significant press coverage". R.K Chowdhury is a Bangladeshi Politician and columnist, who gets significant page coverage from third party, reliable newspapers. Newspapers which can be considered top Bengali newspapers of Bangladesh, following newspapers are Bangladesh Pratidin, Jugantor and Kaler Kantho. These newspapers write an entire article just about R.K Chowdhury on his birthday or any other day, just to write about this man. The article has been neutral, and has given proper reference. I hope you'll review this and decide whether it should be deleted or not. Fidaabresham


 * Delete. Unfortunately, I can't read Bengali, but Google Translate does. Three of the cited articles are trivial mentions, and don't meet GNG, and while one is more extensive, dealing with his candidacy for the Dhaka South City Corporation, it is a single reference, and thus not sufficient on its own for GNG. I also have some concerns that it may just be a regurgitated press release, but the automated translation is not of sufficient quality to determine this. Fidaabresham, do you have additional significant articles that would help him meet GNG? BilledMammal (talk) 07:08, 28 July 2021 (UTC)


 * Hey there buddy, thanks for responding. if you look at one of the articles which is from Kaler Kantho, it's just written about him and can't be considered a trivial mention as the entire speaks only about him and his life achievements. And all of these articles, can't be considered trivial mentions because the entire article only speaks about him and his life achievements. As for you thinking it's regurgitated press release, the 3 articles are considered as notable newspapers officially. The Bangladesh Pratidin article, I also don't believe can be considered as a trivial mention, as the article is about him declaring his candidacy and goes on to speak about his life achievements. If you still wish to read more articles about him, and there's plenty copy paste this "আর কে চৌধুরী" onto your search box and search, you'll find more articles about him, since they're in Bangla you could translate it using Google translate.

 * Delete, well i can read Bengali and i am agree with nom. Fails WP:NPOL and WP:GNG. --আফতাবুজ্জামান (talk) 15:18, 28 July 2021 (UTC)


 * Alright, but can the article be considered as a stub under Bangladeshi politician?


 * Delete fails WP:NPOL, 1st source brief 80th birthday notice, 2nd source a press release, 3rd his wife's death anniversary trivial and press release, 4th source best there is - so overall fails WP:GNG as well. KylieTastic (talk) 16:09, 31 July 2021 (UTC)
