Review section
I am nominating this featured article for review because per SandyGeorgia's talk page notice, there is substantial unsourced information, but more importantly, out of date information that hasn't been updated for 15 years Bumbubookworm (talk) 02:13, 9 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Can you be more specific which parts are outdated? --Zayeem  (talk) 21:56, 10 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Kmzayeem Not the original nominator but I notice that there are several issues with updating in the article, especially economy and demographics section. All figures subject to change should have an "as of" date. The article doesn't follow that and instead gives number of rickshaw drivers in 2000 and percentage of the Bangladesh economy as of 2017, without stating the date so the reader doesn't know it hasn't been updated. Another big issue with the article is the lack of inline citations for all info as required by the FA criteria. (t &#183; c)  buidhe  17:35, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
 * are you interested in cleaning up this article? Z1720 (talk) 15:57, 19 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Comment: This article is very poorly sourced, anyone could slap a dozen more cn tags on it and it still wouldn't be enough. The Culture section is full of unsourced trivia and I keep finding POV-driven language in odd places (Relatively low-cost and non-polluting cycle rickshaws are superior to private cars, which are exclusively responsible for Dhaka's congestion. - this is sourced to an opinion piece, that of course does not say anything of the sort.) Needs a top-to-bottom rewrite. RetiredDuke (talk) 11:31, 23 October 2021 (UTC)
