Title of the article
[edit]West Bengal and Bangladesh have two sarees with the same name, but they are actually different sarees in terms of weaving technique and design. That is why the article titles were kept as – Tangail Saree (West Bengal) and Tangail Saree (Bangladesh). Detailed information about the origin of the Tangail Saree (West Bengal) was mentioned with references. But, user রিজওয়ান আহমেদ moved (here) the article under the title Tangail Saree of West Bengal. His argument - Registered as GI as "Tangail Saree of Bengal". And, "Bengal" refers to West Bengal of India. Hence, the title "Tangail Saree of West Bengal" is accepted in the outside world. He derives the title of the article from the title mentioned in the GI tag, which is against the wiki's "Use commonly recognizable names" policy. He may have forgotten that two sarees are different from each other. Request to move the article to the previous title as per the Wikipedia:Article titles policy. -- খাঁ শুভেন্দু (talk) 13:49, 4 February 2024 (UTC)
- খাঁ শুভেন্দু,
reverted undiscussed move. রিজওয়ান আহমেদ, ব্যক্তিগত ভাবনা উইকিপিডিয়ায় কাজ করে না! আপনার উদ্দেশ্য এবং আবেগ বুঝতে পারি, কিন্তু সেটা উইকিপিডিয়ার জন্য প্রযোজ্য না। আপনি চাইলে স্থানান্তর আলোচনা শুরু করতে পারেন। Warm Regards, ZI Jony (Talk) 18:20, 4 February 2024 (UTC) - @খাঁ শুভেন্দু Tangail is in Bangladesh and was never part of "West Bengal". India making "tangail" sarees means that they are appropriating Bangladeshi/Bengal heritage and passing it off as their own. Absolutely appalling. speaks volumes as to why edit capabilties have been turned off for this article. 142.198.168.166 (talk) 03:14, 8 February 2024 (UTC)
Current GI tag issue
[edit]Although both historically originating from Tangail region of Bangladesh(hence the name Tangail saree)India had managed to receive its GI tag.Current publication of India as regarding Tangail saree as a product originating in West Bengal has sparked protests all over Bangladesh in the early days of 2024,especially in the capital city of Bangladesh,Dhaka.With the inaccuracy in giving the GI tag to the wrong country,it is strictly advisable to properly fact check any sources that is published anywhere in the internet regarding the origin of this saree. 114.130.184.96 (talk) 00:27, 5 February 2024 (UTC)
Fake Claim
[edit]They are claiming that this saree is originating from Nadia of West Bengal, which is completely false claim. Tangail Saree is originated in Pathrail of Tangail of Bangladesh. When Bengal divided in two parts as East Bengal (later Bangladesh) and West Bengal, some workers who mainly was from Bangladesh settled in West Bengal and they started to make the same product which is mainly from Bangladesh! But in this wiki, they are claiming that, this Tangail Saree is mainly originated in West Bengal which is completely a false claim! মোঃ আছিফুল হাসান রাফি (talk) 13:58, 8 February 2024 (UTC)
Theft of Tradition
[edit]This is a product of Tangail Region of Bangladesh. We will take it back. 2003:CD:3709:D979:B3E:27B3:3D8:2CF5 (talk) 21:12, 9 February 2024 (UTC)
