New enough (July 11), long enough (6100 B). However, Mehedi Abedin, I think there are a few problems with your sourcing. Somoy TV is known for misinformation, and I think Bdnews24.com may also be questionable. The rest of the article's sources are good, though. If you replace the questionable sources or remove the statements, the article will be good. — Vigilant Cosmic Penguin 🐧 (talk | contribs) 22:00, 12 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Vigilantcosmicpenguin: Done. Mehedi Abedin 23:24, 12 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
Alright, new citations look more credible to me.
Article is now well-sourced, and a well-written overview of the subject. ALT0 verified in source, ALT2 accepted in good faith. Both hooks are interesting. ALT1 is less interesting, and also, uh, might be a bit dated now. Approving ALT0 and ALT2. I think it would be great to run the hook on 25 September (the 50th anniversary), but I don't know what the rules are on that. — Vigilant Cosmic Penguin 🐧 (talk | contribs) 00:42, 13 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
