From Talk:Islamic University of Bangladesh

[edit]

Is this a real university? The article should have a reference. --Ragib 20:14, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Merge

[edit]

The references available show that the real name for the university is Islamic University of Bangladesh, and it is an international university by definition, not a public university. There also seem to be little purpose in putting together a lot of headers with no text to follow. Aditya(talk • contribs) 16:51, 19 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Promotional content

[edit]

It can be verified that what appears to present itself as the official website of this university is very inadequate in providing detailed information. Perhaps this is why a number of interested contributors have attempted to utilise the Wikpedia article as a means of describing themselves, their colleagues and faculties/departments in detail and, thus, inappropriately creating a competitive imbalance in content which is destructive of the purposes of an encyclopedic article. Only two of the university's five faculties are named, while departmental interests scramble to increase their own coverage. What sort of university is this, one has to ask. I recommend that interested parties apply themselves to lobbying the vice-chancellor and official website administrators to achieve the due specific coverage they desire and deserve—while laying off the WP article which necessarily gives a succinct worldwide view.

I should note that, in the eight months since I wrote the above, there has been very welcome expansion and improvement of the university's official website, even though it is apparently still under construction and some areas are unstable. Cheers, Bjenks (talk) 08:41, 26 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Too many photos

[edit]

Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not an image library. High-quality articles about universities contains 20-21 images on average (beyond the two in the infobox). They almost never contain photo galleries. Michigan State University and University of Michigan are two examples that make good use of images.

This article was tagged as having "too many photos" in July 2017, when it had 24. Since then Msrussel has added 31 more pictures, making the problem much worse. I have reduced the number of photos to 16, choosing them in accordance with Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Images and Wikipedia:Image use policy. They are sufficient illustrative aids for the length of the article, provide topical and visual variety, and are the highest quality free images available. They will have to be rearranged within the article, but it would be premature to do so while the article text is being extensively edited. All of the images that have been removed are still available to readers by clicking the link to Wikimedia Commons in the external links section.

The optimal number of images is somewhat subjective. If you think one or two more would be better, I encourage you to choose from the following, which are the next-best images, or upload a new, superior image you have taken yourself. Please do not add large numbers of photos without first reaching consensus here to do so. Too many photos makes the university and its teachers, students, and alumni look amateurish and juvenile.

Borderline images
