Nurul Alam Chowdhury

Created by S. M. Nazmus Shakib (talk). Self-nominated at 17:33, 26 August 2019 (UTC).

  • At 927 characters this seems too short for DYK, and the grammar needs some work. AGFing on the sourcing (the Google Translate results of the sources are obviously nonsense - a 12 year old parliamentarian?) but some of the infobox data are not supported by the article.

Thanks for your review. Google translation didn't give you proper result. Minimum age to become an MP in Bangladesh is 25.(see Qualifications and disqualifications for election to Parliament) Nurul Alam Chowdhury was the youngest MP in the 1st Parliament of a country. So, I want this to feature on DYK.--S. M. Nazmus Shakib (talk) 10:36, 27 August 2019 (UTC)
@S. M. Nazmus Shakib:Yeah, my "nonsense" comment was that I can't rely on Google Translate to check the sources as the translations are obviously incorrect. But the point that we need more prose here still stands. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 09:13, 29 August 2019 (UTC)
@Jo-Jo Eumerus: I have added some texts. I think it is enough long for DYK.--S. M. Nazmus Shakib (talk) 09:53, 29 August 2019 (UTC)
Yes, but the infobox needs some sourcing, and I think the article text could also use some prose cleanup; right now it's very choppy. I also wonder if someone can spot-check the sources... Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 11:59, 29 August 2019 (UTC)
@Jo-Jo Eumerus: The texts are reorganized. A source is added to infobox too.--S. M. Nazmus Shakib (talk) 12:48, 29 August 2019 (UTC)
I am not sure about whether their party membership is sourced. I've requested a source spot-check at WT:IN. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 16:12, 29 August 2019 (UTC)
Bangla is the language of both Bangladesh and India. @Jo-Jo Eumerus:, you can verify the DYK on Wikipedia talk:Noticeboard for Bangladesh-related topics too.--S. M. Nazmus Shakib (talk) 16:34, 29 August 2019 (UTC)
  • "১৯৭৩ সালের সংসদে তিনি ছিলেন সর্বকনিষ্ঠ সংসদ সদস্য। " >> "He was the youngest Member of Parliament in the 1973 Parliament." This is cited in ref 3, ref 5. --Titodutta (talk) 08:56, 26 September 2019 (UTC)
    @S. M. Nazmus Shakib:One last thing: The infobox has material that's unsourced and not supported by the article. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 19:14, 27 September 2019 (UTC)
@Jo-Jo Eumerus: Can you specify which information was unsourced in the infobox, please? I provided all sources about Bangladeshi Liberation War, Bangladesh Ambassador to Oman, MP of Chittagong 4 and Director of Rupali Bank.--S. M. Nazmus Shakib (talk) 20:23, 27 September 2019 (UTC)
Seems like it's resolved now. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 20:57, 27 September 2019 (UTC)
