1(b) and (c) concerns. Where is the information on politics within the city? What industries are present? Demographics? If anyone takes up the article, ~~it needs to be modeled more on Washington, D.C.~~ There are also many paragraphs with missing citations, and some that do have cites only cover the preceding sentence, not the entire paragraph. Banglapedia, while possibly meeting WP:RS, should not be used, as it isn't neutral and encyclopedias shouldn't cite other encyclopedias. —Ed (talk • majestic titan) 04:19, 18 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I think you are assuming it is a city ... rather it is a neighborhood in Dhaka city. Actually, the very first sentence makes it clear. (Shahbag (also Shahbaugh, Bengali: শাহবাগ Shabag; IPA: [ˈʃabaɡ]) is a major neighbourhood and a police precinct or Thana in Dhaka, the capital of Bangladesh). The other points can be handled, but your first assertion about politics/industries etc. are based on a wrong assumption. Once again, it is clearly not a city/town article. --Ragib (talk) 04:49, 18 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Politics and industry could still be included. South Side (Chicago) and Waterfall Gully, South Australia seem to be similar articles, though, not D.C. -- fair point. —Ed (talk • majestic titan) 04:55, 18 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

There is no industry. Commercial activities are already there. Aditya^{(talk • contribs)} 02:43, 3 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that politics could be included. Things like which parties represent the neighbourhood at district, state, national level etc. --Redtigerxyz ^Talk 11:32, 18 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I have incorporated the only information available. City Corporation Election will happen in May, and till then there are no elected bodies anywhere in Dhaka. Aditya^{(talk • contribs)} 12:13, 26 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I tagged about seven or eight different sources with ((dead link)). All of the Banglapedia links give me a 404, and since it's agreed that they shouldn't be there in the first place, I removed them.

It was never agreed anywhere that Banglapedia links shouldn't be there. The cites were restored with the 404 problem fixed. Aditya^{(talk • contribs)} 02:13, 3 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It doesn't need agreement—it isn't reliable. —Ed (talk • majestic titan) 02:46, 14 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

FARC commentary[edit]

Featured article criteria of concern are comprehensiveness and sourcing YellowMonkey (vote in the Southern Stars and White Ferns supermodel photo poll) 00:25, 1 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delist - little to no work done since FAR began. (natit citsejam • klat) dE— 16:42, 1 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delist per sourcing concerns. As I pointed out, at least seven ELs were dead and a few more looked dubious. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • ^{(Many otters • One bat • One hammer)} 16:03, 2 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

All the work needed was done. All dead ELs fixed. Mistakenly removed cites reinstated with 404 problem fixed. Mistakenly raised politics issue addressed to the maximum. There is nothing left to do. Aditya^{(talk • contribs)} 02:41, 3 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
