Merge with climate change adaptation in Bangladesh?

I propose to merge this article with climate change adaptation in Bangladesh. Both articles are pretty weak, don't refer well to each other and have some duplication. A merger could make a good article out of two weak ones. EMsmile (talk) 09:26, 28 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Good idea. We will never have capacity to have all of these articles up to date. Femke Nijsse (talk) 13:27, 4 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I've done the merger now. Still needs a bit of fine tuning work, taking out repetitions, adjusting structure and reducing the long "External links" list. EMsmile (talk) 01:58, 11 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Table with projects from 2005 removed

I have removed this table as it didn't seem encyclopedic to me. Also the link has no URL and the information is from 2005, so outdated. If anyone wants to rescue something from the table, please discuss here:

Suggested changes to headings and structure

I suggest to change the headings and structure of this article to be in line with the template that has been proposed here for all articles of the nature "Climate change in Country X": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Climate_change/Style_guide (see also discussion on that page's talk page). Anyone has any objections? If not, who's got time to give it a go? I am slowly working away at this for all the countries but would love some collaborators.EMsmile (talk) 01:10, 24 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed merge of Impact of climate change in Bangladesh into Climate change in Bangladesh

For the most part, Wikipedia doesn't have a seperate page from the main one for per-country articles -- though a separate article makes sense for the international context (because there is so much different kinds of information) readers don't expect the impacts and description of climate change to be different -- and this article is not demonstrating a substantive different in need of content. Sadads (talk) 13:47, 25 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with your proposed merge and wonder why User:Enamul12015 even created Impact of climate change in Bangladesh when we already have Climate change in Bangladesh. Very strange. I see this was created as part of a WikiEdu course. It might be useful to flag this up to the WikiEdu course coordinators as well. EMsmile (talk) 14:19, 25 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I've completed the merger now although there wasn't much content at Impact of climate change in Bangladesh worth keeping. It was not well written. EMsmile (talk) 08:51, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
