Keep: How is a city of more than 10 million people a town? Its is notable per the first bulletin point on WP:GEOLAND. Badly sourced but notable topic.Vinegarymass911 (talk) 16:40, 11 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Sir, are there any differences between Shahjadpur Upazila and Shahjadpur.—IM3847 (talk) 18:30, 11 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- They are completely different places. Shahjadpur is a community of about 20,000 people within Ward No. 18 of the city of Dhaka. Shahjadpur Upazila is an administrative sub-district with a population of about 560,000 located about 80 km northwest of Dhaka. --Worldbruce (talk) 15:35, 12 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, per WP:GEOLAND, as indicated by Vinegarymass911. Comment: This article is very poorly written and very poorly sourced. On top of that, sources are scarce. These, however doesn't warrant deletion. Also, according to WP:BDPLACE, the article about the ward should be under, Shahjadpur Ward. However, the locality of Shahjadpur entirely consists of and consisted within the jurisdiction of the ward. So, I posit, the article should be about the locality/neighborhood and a section (administration/governance/ward) should cover the subject of Shahjadpur Ward. --nafSadh did say 18:15, 12 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Satisfies WP:GEOLAND. Remember, AFD is not cleanup. Smartyllama (talk) 12:16, 13 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Article certainly needs improvement, but notable enough. Earnsthearthrob (talk) 15:33, 16 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
