Congratulations to Belayet!! Though the issue raised in the article needs to be addressed ... we need to focus on increasing the article quality in bn, rather than starting new articles.

I also think the local media needs to give more focus on wikipedia. In recent months, there is a lack of interest from the Bangladeshi media ... most of the recent coverage has come from foreign news sources.

Beside this recently Indian Express mentioned Bangla Wikipedia at one of their featured article[1] about Wikipedia (Last section page 4). And on september 2010 an article[2] on Wikimedia Bangla Community published at September 2010 issue of Wikimedia India newsletter.
