Fails WP:NOTNEWS which state:--Wikipedia considers the enduring notability of persons and events.All news coverage was restricted to around 10 days after the incident.

Post that, it died down to covering typical trivial-power-posturing of politicians including sending legal notices to one another and filing a case of defamation against another as to a comment made over the incident.

A month after, nil coverage is located. WBGconverse 04:59, 24 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Winged Blades of Godric First of all there are many such instances of sustained coverage. I gave only a few examples. One can search and find many more. Second, local source (for that matter any source) is always acceptable as long as it is reliable. Third, even if a news report is about a political party's political motives, it does prove sustained coverage on the topic. BengaliHindu (talk) 16:57, 24 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
BengaliHindu, provide them. No, local sources are always assigned lesser weight. WBGconverse 18:04, 24 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

1. Original reporting - This is not original reporting, as this is already published by several reliable news providers in West Bengal, at all-India level and also in Bangladesh. Questioning on Times of India, Telegraph, Anandabazar Patrika is ridiculous.
2. Enduring notability - Leading Indian Newspaper covered the Derivit Case immediately and even after two weeks and more. Followed Links may help to ensure enduring notability. Sept 21 Sept 23 Sept 26 27 sept Oct 1 Oct 4 Oct 5 And many more. So enduring notability should not be questioned.
3. Who's who - Not applicable.
4. A Diary - Not applicable .
So WP:NOTNEWS tag should be removed. Thanks. শক্তিশেল (talk) 16:31, 24 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

In last few comments pointed and given many resent links from leading news media and one of them covered last day. So enduring Notability is out of any questions. Once again pointing resent link from leading news media which covered yesterday. Covered by ABP on 23 oct 2018 . Thanks. শক্তিশেল (talk) 17:01, 24 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Sam Sailor 11:38, 31 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

^Merge and redirect to Language Movement, to which Bengali language Movement currently redirects. There are many issues here, see Talk:Bengali language Movement (North Dinajpur)#Requested move 13 October 2018 which proposes moving to 2018 West Bengal Bengali teacher appointment protest . There is also Bengali language Movement in India. All of these articles (and possibly others) badly need work to remove political bias and inappropriate primary source citations, and what is needed is an article covering the whole movement both in what is now India and what is now Bangladesh. There is some content here that should be preserved to be part of that article, and a redirect will also preserve incoming external links. Andrewa (talk) 19:10, 31 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
