The Daily Tribunal

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

The Daily Tribunal which has received no independent coverage in reliable sources. If you look at the "newspaper" it is a collection of plagiarized articles presented as their own. The claim that it is the 5th highest circulating English language newspaper in Bangladesh could not be verified and is inaccurate according to the List of newspapers in Bangladesh. Bangladesh is a Bengali-speaking nation as such, the largest circulated Bengali newspaper sells more than half a million copies, while the largest circulated English newspaper, The Daily Star, sells a little over 40 thousand.

The creator has been trying to write an article on the newspaper and its editor for over a year. Both are non-notables. The persistence shows clear evidence of conflict of interest. Not a single independent reliable source has been shown to mention this "newspaper" let alone provide the significant coverage needed to pass notability guidelines.

 * Generally, most of the newspapers in Bangladesh do not want to write anything about other newspapers. As a result, it is usually difficult to find reference. In addition, it is jointly the 5th largest English newspaper in Bangladesh as per the government list. However, the article can be kept. Sakib214 (talk) 07:50, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Difficulty in finding references is not an argument in favor of keeping an article. Even if the other newspapers don't write about this newspaper, there might be magazines, books, or independent reliable websites that do. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 21:26, 30 August 2022 (UTC)

 * Redirect to List_of_newspapers in Bangladesh. The UNB reference, which gives the circulation numbers used in the article, shows that it's the ninth largest. It can't be both the fifth largest and the ninth largest, although it's likely the two sources refer to the circulation at different points in time. Without qualifying that in the article text it seems to contain information that contradicts its sources, and in any case there isn't really enough reliable information to justify a standalone article at this time in my opinion.

 * The circulation numbers of The Financial Express and The Daily Sun jointly bagged 2nd position (41,000). In this way The Independent, The Daily Observer and The Daily Bangladesh Post bagged 4th position (40,550). In the same way The Asian Age and The Daily Tribunal bagged 5th position (40,500). More than one newspaper bagged the same position according to the circulation numbers. That's why it creates confusion. But this happens for the newspapers.
