Fails WP:GNG. Calling for an AfD discussion. Hatchens (talk) 12:15, 1 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Question: Hatchens, According to your userpage language babel, you do not seem to read Bengali. How did you evaluate the references and came to a conclusion that it fails WP:GNG? ~ Nahid ^Talk 12:24, 1 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Dear NahidSultan. You should be aware there are some tools like Google Translator which helps in these kinda situations. Instead of focusing on my language skills, kindly feel free to discuss this AfD and help in deriving required consensus. -Hatchens (talk) 12:29, 1 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I know about machine translators and also know that they produce very very poor translation from bn to en. Now, there is a daily star (most circulated English daily in Bangladesh) in depth coverage and it mentions him as iconic vocal, veteran artiste etc. The reason I asked how you evaluated because there are also in depth coverage in Prothom Alo (second most circulated daily) here and here (along with the band). IMO, this is a poor judgement- nominating articles for deletion based on google translation when most of the sources are in a foreign language. Best, ~ Nahid ^Talk 13:52, 1 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - passes WP:GNG and WP:MUSICBIO. Of the five references, three (The Daily Star, Prothom Alo, Manabzamin) are significant coverage solely focused on the singer. The singer has also released several albums independent of the band. --Zayeem ^(talk) 14:14, 1 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
