Regarding this edit. Looks like most people here are not comfortable with the addition of Sierra Leone in the article. Perhaps we should build a consensus first. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 14:55, 15 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

বাংলা

আপনি কি বাংলা জানেন ও বাংলায় লিখতে পারেন? (সাহায্য:বাংলা টাইপ করা) জানলে Goyghor Mosque, Conquest of Sylhet নিবন্ধ বাংলা উইকিতে তৈরি করে দিলে খুশি হব। অনুরোধ করছি কারণ বাংলা উইকিতে নিবন্ধ তৈরি করার মত লোক খুব কম। Please ignore this message if you don't understand Bengali. --আফতাবুজ্জামান (talk) 00:26, 2 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@আফতাবুজ্জামান, বাংলা উইকিপেডিয়ার চেয়ে আমি বুঝি আমাদের জাতীয় বাংলাপিডিয়া যথেষ্ট। কিন্তু বাংলা লিখতে পারি তাই আমি চেষ্টা করবো, ইনশাআল্লাহ| কিন্তু একা একা আমি সবকিছু পারবো না। :)

বাংলাপিডিয়াও ভালো, বাংলা উইকিপিডিয়াও ভালো। হ্যাঁ, বাংলা উইকিতে আরো উন্নতি দরকার। তার জন্য স্বেচ্ছাসেবক দরকার, যেটা এই ইংরেজিতে আছে কিন্তু বাংলা উইকিতে তা খুব খুব খুব কম। নিশ্চয়ই সাহায্য করতে চেষ্টা করব। বাংলা উইকিতে খসড়া (draft) নামস্থান (namespace) নেই। তাই আমি আপনাকে এটা ব্যবহার করার পরামর্শ দিচ্ছি। --আফতাবুজ্জামান (talk) 19:43, 2 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

ভাইয়া bn:ব্যবহারকারী:UserNumber/গয়ঘর মসজিদ পাতাটি তো আর অনুবাদ করলেন না। বাংলা উইকিকে একটু সাহায্য করার অনুরোধ জানাই। আমরা নিজেরাই যদি নিজেদের ভাষার উইকিতে সম্পাদনা না করি, তবে কোন ইংরেজ/বিদেশি এসে কিন্তু করে দিবে না। বাংলা উইকিতে নিয়মিত অবদান রাখার অনুরোধ জানাই, হতে পারে তা প্রতিদিন এক লাইন করেও লিখে। --আফতাবুজ্জামান (talk) 20:27, 12 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

ভাইয়া, জ্বালাতন করছি আবার। যদি পারেন তো Conquest of Sylhet, 1782 Sylhet uprising বাংলা উইকিতে অনুবাদ করে দিয়েন। বানান, বাক্যগঠন নিয়ে চিন্তা করবেন না, আমি সংশোধন করে দিব। বাংলা উইকিতে অবদানকারী একদম কম, নিবন্ধ সৃষ্টি করে বাংলা উইকিতে আপনার অবদান কামনা করছি। --আফতাবুজ্জামান (talk) 14:38, 31 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

ভাই সবই পারি তবে আপনাকে অনুরোধ করার মূল কারণ আপনার সাহায্য চাওয়া। আপনি এটা করলে আমার করা লাগল না, আমি ঐ সময়টুকু নিয়ে অন্য কোন নিবন্ধে কাজ করতে পারব। ফলে বাংলা উইকিতে একটা বেশী নিবন্ধ আসল আজকে। আপনি তো জানেন বাংলা উইকিতে গুটিকয়েক লোক কাজ করে (ইংরেজি উইকির মত হাজার হাজার লোক নেই), ফলে আপনার নিয়মিত সাহায্য পেলে বাংলা উইকিতে সমৃদ্ধির পথে আরেকটু এগুবে। বাক্য শুদ্ধ নিয়ে চিন্তা করবেন না, আমি ঠিক করে দিব। আফতাবুজ্জামান (talk) 19:34, 17 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Sri Lanka

Hi Sri Lanka was never allied with the US... Sri Lanka did help Pakistan but that was for different reason .I edited the information and added citations . Page 7 of that CIA document( https://www.cia.gov/library/readingroom/docs/CIA-RDP83S00854R000200130001-0.pdf) explain why SL helped Pakistan. Pakistan was a formal ally of the US while but SL was in the non -aligned movement and receiving military and economic assistance from both the US and USSR (http://www.island.lk/index.php?page_cat=article-details&page=article-details&code_title=13217). In fact Sri Lanka was a founding nation of the non-aligned movement and the non-aligned summit was held in Sri Lanka in 1976 (https://www.scribd.com/document/84464515/Sri-Lanka-s-Role-in-NAM).

Bakarkhani

Hello! I saw your edits on Bakarkhani. Thanks for correcting a lot of misleading information in that article. I've seen a number of times some editors repeatedly removing the citations from Banglapedia and Daily Sun and the cited contents from that article. In your edits you missed to correct the place of origin of Bakarkhani in the infobox. It should be Old Dhaka in Bangladesh. You can take a look at this revision to get a clear idea. It looks like the article has been extended protected due to which I can't edit it. Also, I'd suggest you to keep that article in your watchlist. Thanks again. Za-ari-masen (talk) 17:50, 23 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Za-ari-masen; Yes, unfortunately I think the same person who extended protected it was the one who removed all the information. He claims Banglapedia is not reliable although nearly every Bengal-related page on this website cites from it. UserNumber (talk) 08:28, 24 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You're right, exactly. Apparently, they have distorted other articles as well, I just edited Borhani, especially the infobox where they are replacing Bangladesh with Indian subcontinent in a whole sale. Could you please edit the infobox of Bakarkhani as well to correct the information? Za-ari-masen (talk) 09:19, 24 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hey! Hope you are doing well. It appears he's at it again. Take a look at Borhani. Now after Banglapedia, he's saying even The Daily Star (Bangladesh) is not a RS. Za-ari-masen (talk) 00:09, 9 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Just browsed through his contributions, it looks like he has been making the same disruptive edits on Gombhira and Kazi Nazrul Islam. Za-ari-masen (talk) 00:17, 9 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Za-ari-masen; To be honest, Gombhira is not just a Bangladeshi tradition. What's going on in Nazrul's page? Can't seem to find anything.UserNumber (talk) 10:58, 9 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Alivardi - Even I struggle with this book as it was written a very long time ago and the vocabulary can be difficult but this is what it says: Respected Achyutcharan Chowdhury and the sign/relic of the stone of Pratapgarh. Under him is coal (they used the word for underground) and on the left a wearing-out image on a tree. UserNumber (talk) 13:52, 29 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Another quick request

Hey, I was wondering if you could help me with something again? I was hoping you could double-check my interpretation of the first paragraph of this.[2]

It's my understanding that it mentions that the Pal family were descended from the rulers of the Pala Empire, through one of the kings called Mahipal. But since I found another source which seems to contradict this, I'm thinking I got the translation wrong. What do you think?
Alivardi (talk) 02:17, 11 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Alivardi, you are right, according to the source some say the Pal family are descended from Mahipala while Choudhury says there is no way of knowing the truth behind this. A number of places are known to have used the name of Mahipala as he was a great and popular ruler. There is no evidence Mahipala came to Panchakhanda. UserNumber (talk) 19:15, 11 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

What does the other source mention? UserNumber (talk) 19:17, 11 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, that was a big help! The other source was the Beanibazar Society website,[3] which stated that Kalidas Pal (the first historical member of the family) arrived in the region in the 7th-century; long before the Pala Empire was founded. I believe this was a mistake, since there are not enough generations in the Pal family tree[4] for him to have lived so long ago. Personally, I think the website was supposed to say the 7th century BS, which would make a lot more sense. It doesn't matter either way, since I'm pretty sure the website isn't RS.

The second paragraph in Srihatter Itibritta mentions Kalidas Pal who migrated to Panchakhanda which was uninhabited at the time. Pal made it fit for habitation and many Mahimals, led by their Sardars Raghai and Basai, migrated to the area following this and continue to live there today.UserNumber (talk) 22:06, 11 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

That's pretty interesting. I'll add that into the article when I get the chance.

Nazrul's image

Hello, I have uploaded the image here. I believe it's in the public domain as the photo appears to be at least 90 years old. Za-ari-masen (talk) 10:39, 11 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I think I have made a mistake. You have said that the picture was taken in 1926 which was before the society was founded. Could you please check which group Nazrul was really with in this picture. Many thanks. UserNumber (talk) 19:27, 11 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The article stated that Nazrul visited Sylhet twice, in 1926 and 1928 so that's how I came up with that year. Thanks for pointing out the discrepancy, I think the image might require a rename. Regarding the people in the image, I have no idea. Let me go through the article once again and I'll get back to you if I find anything. Za-ari-masen (talk) 12:54, 13 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Recent page move concerns

Hey buddy, I wanted to talk to you about some page moves you did a few months ago. In February, you moved the page Alauddin Husain Shah to "Alauddin Husayn Shah", stating that it was due to consensus as well as being the correct spelling.[5] However, I don't think that this action was right.

According to WP:MOVE, an article title is supposed to be its common name. Looking at Ngram, a search engine which tracks how often a name or phrase appears in Google Books (and is recommended for controversial page moves), both "Alauddin Husain Shah" and "Alauddin Hussain Shah" are much more commonly used name spellings, with "Alauddin Husayn Shah" not having enough hits to appear on the chart at all.[6] I also saw similar issues for when you moved Ghiyasuddin Mahmud Shah to "Ghiyathuddin Mahmud Shah"[7] and Ghiyasuddin Azam Shah to "Ghiyathuddin Azam Shah".[8]

I'm thinking it'll be better to keep the original article titles. What are your thoughts?
Alivardi (talk) 21:19, 9 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Alivardi:, I agree. I think you made a good point which I didn't take into consideration. The reason I changed many of the spellings was due to a common spelling of Perso-Arab names of all rulers in the Muslim world.UserNumber (talk) 15:24, 11 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Your GA nomination of Pratapgarh Kingdom

Hey buddy. I first wanted to thank you for nominating Pratapgarh Kingdom for a GA review. I've thought about nominating it myself before, but I've never been sure if it was ready. Having another editor believe it is worth it is a huge compliment which I am very grateful for.

I wanted to ask whether you would mind letting me continue the process from here? It's been a long time since I wrote the article, but I still have all my research saved, which may be useful for any changes that need to be made. I am also already familiar with how reviews work, having worked on and nominated an article myself last September, resulting in a successful GA assessment. What are your thoughts?
Alivardi (talk) 22:41, 8 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Alivardi:, of course I 100% agree as it is your article and you've done a lot more work relating to it than me. I simply nominated because I believe that it is worthy of GA status. UserNumber (talk) 13:13, 9 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not revert without reason.

I removed Kerala and Sri Lanka from the "early muslim dominion" section. Being a Southie, and that from Kerala, I have made myself well aware of the recorded history of the Deep-South over the years. The Deep-South (Kerala and Tamilnadu and adjoining Tulu Coorg Telugu and Kannada districts) were NEVER under muslim rule.

There were momentary attacks like in the early-1300s and mid-1300s and later in the early-1700s and late-1700s. Never sustained rule for even a decade or more let alone what was like in pakistan or North India or bangladesh. The Deep-South and Sri Lanka were under Hindu-Jain-Buddhist rule of the Cheras-Pandyas-Cholas for all of their recorded-history (The same rulers oscillated between Hinduism Jainism and Buddhism). The Dharmic rulers built Kodungalloor masjid and Nagore dargah among others for their muslim subjects over the centuries. Can you name ONE mosque or monument built by a *muslim* ruler even in southern Andhra or southern Karnataka let alone beyond?

Kerala (or Tamilnadu or Sri Lanka) never had any early "muslim dominion". tughlaqs could not hold on to their southern and western territories for even a decade. NYCLover2016 (talk) 13:04, 2 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Chaipau, there is no consensus for your edits and Uanfala did participate in the discussion so he can't be considered as an independent editor. You can't impose your own POV by selectively picking editors as independent. You should respect the process yourself. Za-ari-masen (talk) 12:11, 29 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Rollback granted

Hi UserNumber. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
Rollback should never be used to edit war.
If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
Use common sense.

If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! — Wug·a·po·des 03:02, 8 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Problematic map

It is regarding this edit, the map doesn't seem to be sourced. I feel the 'Tripuri speakers' are overestimated in the regions of Bangladesh. Since it seems to be your topic area as well, I'd like you to see this. The user had displayed POV before. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 07:19, 16 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Fylindfotberserk: Tripuri is spoken in Sylhet and Chittagong Divisions (both bordering Tripura), so the map is not entirely wrong. A better map with more than one colour or different shades of red, could be made to denote where the language is a majority and where it is a minority. There are roughly more than 300,000 Tripuris in Bangladesh, though only a third of that number seem to speak Tripuri as per the source on Kokborok. The total population of these two predominantly-Bengali-speaking divisions is over 38 million, so it may be important to note how Tripuri is a minority language in these divisions. Most of the Tripuri speakers also reside in the border areas, so districts which do not border Tripura not being coloured would possibly be a good idea (though it is likely some would have migrated to cities like Sylhet and Chittagong for better opportunities).UserNumber (talk) 10:22, 16 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. The map color needs to get revised. Now it looks like that Tripuri is the majority language in Sylhet and Chittagonain Hill Tracts. Would you do the honors of updating the map? - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 10:26, 16 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

van Schendel on Bengalis

Please clarify how on Bengalis the statement that there are 2,000,000 Bengalis in Pakistan is supported by:

van Schendel, Willem (2005). The Bengal Borderland: Beyond State and Nation in South Asia. Anthem Press. p. 250. ISBN 9781843311454.

I don't see the word Bengali anywhere on page 250. Would you quote the passage you're using? --Worldbruce (talk) 13:24, 12 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Worldbruce: Well, they aren't Bangladeshis, this was before 1971. In fact, they would probably not even identify as Bangladeshi. They are an established community of Bengalis living in Pakistan (albeit originating in East Bengal). East Bengalis are still Bengali. UserNumber (talk) 18:17, 12 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Well, can you provide a quote? I see van Schendel talking on that page about "Bangladeshis intercepted near Calcutta", "In the late 1990s, Bangladeshi migrants had to pay agents about $100 to get to Pakistan", and "movement of women from Bangladesh to India", but I don't see anything about 2 million Bengalis [or whatever you want to call them] in Pakistan. If you can't show how the source supports the statement, the citation is inappropriate.

As for whether everyone from East Bengal is a Bengali, that is as debatable as whether everyone from Bangladesh is a Bengali. Although nearly all are ethnically and linguistically Bengali, there were non-Bengalis who moved to East Bengal between 1947 and 1971 and made a life there, not to mention tribal people who don't identify as Bengali notwithstanding where politicians may have drawn borders. --Worldbruce (talk) 20:26, 12 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Worldbruce: Actually, I wasn't the one that added this reference. I just brought it back after you removed it. But I did see that the source specifically says 2 million in page 249 or something. They call them Bangladeshi, but it is obviously referring to Bengalis there. UserNumber (talk) 22:44, 12 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

D'Hubert (2018)

D'Hubert's chapter in d'Hubert & Papas (2018) is a real gem of a source! I haven't been aware of it before, so this is a positive side-effect of the current disruption :) It really explains the historical context of Sylheti Nagri better than any other source I have seen so far. Do you have a full copy of the text? Unfortunately, a few pages are not displayed on Google Books. –Austronesier (talk) 14:37, 30 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Austronesier: Sadly, I no longer have full access to Jāmī in Regional Contexts. D'Hubert gives a really good introduction to the script, and it was even included it as an entry in the Encyclopaedia of Islam, THREE. With regards do your recent edit on the Sylhet Nagri article, I would disagree not linking Dobhashi for Late Middle Bengali. D'Hubert mentions in the source that the two differences between typical Dobhashi in Bengali script and Sylhet Nagri literature are 1) some dialectal features, and 2) script. Dialectal features are prevalent across Dobhashi literature in general e.g. a Dobhashi writer's work in Hooghly will be different from a Dobhashi writer of Dhaka who may have his own dialectal features. Overall, the language is considered to be the same. As someone who is a Sylheti and also quite invested in this topic, I've come to realise that majority of these Sylhet Nagri works are composed just like Dobhashi literature. I would have suggested Sylheti to be removed from the list too (as I haven't come across a notable work that's completely in the Sylheti dialect apart from the recent renditions of the New Testament) but the reason why I haven't is because I know that the online activists will not tolerate that. Anyway, it's nice to hear that you've recognised the brilliance of Jāmī in Regional Contexts. UserNumber (talk) 15:31, 30 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I will ask for it at WP:RX then. Citing more from D'Hubert will give the topic more breadth. The more I read about the history of Bengali, the more I see resemblances with the history of Modern Standard German, which has emerged from a similar cultural confluence, and where some of its best contributors came from peripheral dialect areas. Had Franz Grillparzer and Gottfried Keller written in their respective vernaculars (viz. (Austrian) Bavarian and Swiss German, which have been split out by SIL as different languages – looks familiar, right?), nobody would remember them now, and German literature would be less rich.

As for Sylhet Nagri, it is hard to undo recent history. Sylhet Nagri has been reclaimed by the activists, and not by the Sylhet mainstream which identifies with Bengali and its literary tradition. It may be improper from a historical perspective, but has at least developed a marginal significance. And unfortunately, it was not enthusiasts of Bengali philology who pushed for a Unicode standard, but the "language activists". But who knows, the very existence of this new resource might also help to revive interest in the rich Bengali literary tradition of Sylhet, and to re-reclaim the script for its original purpose. –Austronesier (talk) 20:50, 30 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Austronesier:, beautifully written. I'm not too sure about your background but you have really understood the situation well. Bengali folk literature and music is evidently abundant with Sylheti writers (whose works also have dialectal features) like Radharaman Dutta, Shah Abdul Karim and Hason Raja who have gained recognition and influenced generations from across the Bengal, not just Sylhet. I believe D'Hubert and his acquaintances in Chicago are in the process of further research in this area, so the future does look more promising from that angle.

Language

Hi, it is regarding this. There are significant number of people living in Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh areas of India who are almost wholly Hindi literate and have basic/rudimentary understanding of Bengali.

Which Mir Jumla?

In this edit to Dharmapasha Upazila and this edit to Govardhan of Gour you added links pointing to Mir Jumla, which is a disambiguation page. Which Mir Jumla did you mean? Mir Jumla II? Or do you not understand from your source(s)? --Worldbruce (talk) 19:53, 30 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Worldbruce: The sources simply say 'Mir Jumla' as far as I am aware. More research is required. UserNumber (talk) 14:03, 31 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

With the exception of purposeful hatnotes, don't link to disambiguation pages from articles. Doing so baits readers with the promise that more detail can be found there, but if they follow the link they are disappointed. See WP:INTDABLINK. Since you don't know where the name should link, I've unlinked it in both articles. You may remove the October 24 warning about those disambiguation links from your talk page. If you later figure out which Mir Jumla should be linked, you're welcome to add specific links to them. --Worldbruce (talk) 18:57, 31 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Sylheti cuisine

Hi UserNumber, as you rightly point out, the article on Sylheti cuisine is a mess. The existing article on Bangladeshi cuisine already has a section for Sylhet Division, so I'd suggest transferring any content worth rescuing there and making the Sylheti cuisine article a redirect to Bangladeshi cuisine, rather than zapping it altogether. The content regarding the contribution to the UK culinary landscape of people with family ties to Sylhet has no place in either article. Regards Guffydrawers (talk) 15:36, 15 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

climate-data.org is not a reliable source

In January 2024, you added a climate section to several upazila articles (Chhatak Upazila, Dakshin Surma Upazila, and Kulaura Upazila) using information from climate-data.org. That self-published website has been discussed several times at WP:RSN, with the consensus every time being that it is not a reliable source.[241][264][376] --Worldbruce (talk) 02:02, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
