[edit] Merger proposal

Dhaka University is the oldest and largest university in Bangladesh, and for much of the last century the history of Bangladeshi higher studies corresponds closely with the history of Dhaka University. The faculties (it needs some disambiguation, as at government universities in Bangladesh a faculty means a cluster of academic departments) of the university more or less embody the development of whole academic disciplines in Bangladesh for about a century. Bifurcation is obviously a better option than a overlong article. Aditya Kabir 13:52, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

There has already been a merger proposal earlier, and argument against the proposal was presented. Without an existence of argument for making a merger proposal again, I guess, it the tag needs to be removed. And, this article is already longer and more informative than most bangladesh private university article. Would it be preferred that all those tiny stubs on tiny universities in Bangladesh be merged into one large article on "Private Universities of Bangladesh"? I sincerely don't think so.

    • If the entry on the DU article has grown in scope by including research programs/centers and accomplishments, notable faculty and alumni and further necessary information, it may warrant an independent article at a later time. Even the major article size is <30 KB. So there's no reason to keep separate article for each department.--NAHID 17:32, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
  • The article is about Dhaka University and its faculty. And there's no university named "Private Universities of Bangladesh". The reason on DU I've already mentioned above--NAHID 17:42, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
Please, read what you answer to. The argument against merger was - "Bifurcation is obviously a better option than a overlong article." (see above) Aditya(talkcontribs) 18:56, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
