The Asia Portal has recently been created and seeks help from those who are interested. Thanks in advance, TBC ??? ??? ??? 06:02, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
the news listed under the "Bangladesh News" is out of date and full of suicide bombings. Could someone please include other, more up-to-date news? Maybe the capture of Siddiqul Islam and Abdur Rahman or something more up to date.
There is a discussion going on related to India before and after 1947. Following is statement which gives you idea, please read whole discussion before editing:
India after 1947 consists of three countries, Pakistan, India and Bangladesh. When we use word India, in articles, refereeing to whole India, links are such that they bring us to present day India (Republic of India), reducing size of pre-1947 India considerably. Is it possible that when we refer to pre-1947 India we use a term which encompasses whole India not just present day India? Please comment.

Some of the articles on this page begin with an hyphen (-) for no apparent reason at all (example Jatiyo Sangshad Bhaban), while most are without a hyphen in the beginning (example Rabindranath Tagore) as articles on other portal page archives. Is there any meaning in it? Or is it just sloppy editing? I wonder. - Aditya Kabir 11:02, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
I am having a bit of problem watching the page. Today when I came to change the article and picture I am seeing only a blue screen with any any news, article or picture. Can anybody help? Tarif from Bangladesh 11:26, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
Where is the WikiProject History of Bangladesh? I see it mentioned on the talk page of Dhaka Nawab Family. But, alas, it's a red link. If it's lying there for a volunteer to start, please, let me know the procedures. I can volunteer to do whatever is in my capacity. Better people can always add to it latter. Aditya Kabir 16:50, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
I have made a few major changes to the portal page.I have added a new "Selected biography" section. More importantly, for selected article, selected picture and the newly created selected biography sections, I have created a monthy nomination and selection process. I have been bold to select all three items upto September 2007. For items of October 2007 I have created the nomination page. Please feel free to nominate your candidates or support my nominees.- Arman Aziz 11:14, 19 July 2007 (UTC)
I'm proposing to add two new subsections in this portal: "Selected Location" and "Selected Map". Please let me know your comments about this.- Arman Aziz 06:38, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
Does other similar portals have these two? Do we have a significant number of those to keep the new sub-sections busy? If yes, I'm completely with you. Just tell me what I can do (though, I may not be able to do all that's required too quickly all the time... real life business, you know). Aditya( talk • contribs) 09:08, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
As promised earlier I have created a template and a sample page based on the template for this section. Please let me know your suggestion/comments.- Arman Aziz 10:36, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
I have not made much progress other than the July page. I'll wait for others to help me out with the pages for other months. I have a rough idea about which month can talk on which theme:
- Arman Aziz 10:36, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
I'm about to nominate this portal as a featured portal candidate. Before I do so, I wanted to review the featured portal criteria. One thing that may be a problem is - this portal may appear to be self-referential. The citerion says "Aspects of portals that encourage contribution may be self-referential." From that point of view the section on "Things you can do" may be objectionable. The tags "Nominate an article/picture/biography" may be questioned, too. But I can see at least one Featured Portal ( Portal:Christianity) also has such tags.
I'd really appreciate comments from other editors on this. My recommendation is to replace "Things you can do" with "Where in Bangladesh" (discussed above) to mantain balance on left and right side of the portal.

We've been informed that when viewed in FireFox the header of the portal doesn't look as nice as it does in IE. User:B uploaded a comparative screenshot here. I have made some changes to solve this but not sure whether this is working since I am not a FF user. I'd really appreciate if any FireFox user could tell me how it looks now, and even better, upload a screenshot. Arman Aziz 06:17, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
I am planning to have a random rotation for the "Where in Bangladesh" section (similar to Did you know...). Unlike Selected article, biography or picture we don't need to identify good quality materials for this sections. So having monthly nomination and selection doesn't make much sense. However, to have a reasonable pool of items to rotate through I need more suggestions on which locations we can feature on the portal page. Please give me your suggestions (if any) here.

I am proposing to initiate random rotation for selected article and biography starting from 2009. Please let me know if anyone have any objections / suggestions. - Arman ( Talk) 03:21, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
So many things have already happened in recent days. So, things are need to be updated I think. Can we put the news on execution of 5 men convicted in the assassination of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman? Regards, Tanvir 17:26, 4 February 2010 (UTC)
Have added country category to article (was missing), but is this article correct? Bangladesh would have been part of British India in 1911. Hugo999 ( talk) 22:58, 1 September 2011 (UTC)

Wikipedia:WikiProject Portals is back!
The project was rebooted and completely overhauled on April 17th, 2018.
Its goals are to revitalize the entire portal system, make building and maintaining portals easier, and design the portals of the future.
As of April 29th, membership is at 56 editors, and growing.
There are design initiatives for revitalizing the portals system as a whole, and for each component of portals.
Tools are provided for building and maintaining portals, including automated portals that update themselves in various ways.
And, if you are bored and would like something to occupy your mind, we have a wonderful task list.
From your friendly neighborhood Portals WikiProject. — The Transhumanist 03:24, 30 April 2018 (UTC)
The News Section of this portal has now been "automated" with Transclude selected current events template. This is a huge milestone as the maintenance of the news section was the only significant drawback of the portal. Arman ( Talk) 05:49, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
Another development to the Portal: The "Selected Picture" section has now been upgraded to a "Picture slideshow" section; allowing reader to slide through pictures without purging page data. Arman ( Talk) 11:29, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
I have reverted the Did You Know section back to the manual list. That is because all the items in the automatically filtered DYK list is refreshed very infrequently for Bangladesh. Compared to that the manually maintained list gives link to a diverse range of Bangladesh related topics which enriches the portal more. Arman ( Talk) 07:01, 10 September 2018 (UTC)
I have added a banner image of tiger's eyes. Requesting comments please. Keep / remove? Arman ( Talk) 14:19, 11 November 2018 (UTC)
