Comment

This article needs rewriting. It says, at various points, that women have been in the Bangladesh army since 2015, 1971, and “the early 2000s”. What exactly happened in what year needs to be explained simply and clearly, in chronological order. Mccapra (talk) 06:29, 8 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Mccapra: Thanks for reviewing, Recruitment of women as soldiers in Bangladesh Army started in 2015. Women were recruited into the army as doctors since 1971 And since 2000, women could join the army as officer cadets. I agree with you, it needs a rewriting, I need some time for doing this —MdsShakil (talk) 07:20, 8 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Women in the Bangladesh Army → Women in the Bangladesh Armed Forces – because the article has sections about the navy and air force. 37.111.207.150 (talk) 11:27, 30 October 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. – robertsky (talk) 03:58, 6 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nom. charlotte ^👸♥📱 04:32, 6 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support a change. Given the sections Women_in_the_Bangladesh_Army#Bangladesh_Navy and Women_in_the_Bangladesh_Army#Bangladesh_Air Force a change is in order. Either the nomination or (preferred) Women in the Bangladesh military, just like examples in Category:Women in the military by country. Like Women in the Australian military for example.--Commander Keane (talk) 09:35, 6 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support The proposed title clears ambiguity. Fenharrow (talk) 11:01, 7 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Women in the Bangladesh Armed Forces → Women in the Bangladesh Army – This name is the most suitable name for this article as in this article information are mainly about the army, about the army there are so many information and the navy and the air force had only one information. Gamarayapa (talk) 14:09, 4 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Support. The information about the navy and the air force should be transferred to Bangladesh Navy and the Bangladesh Air Force articles respectively as there are very little information about the navy and the air force. 119.30.38.17 (talk) 03:32, 5 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Support. About the army there are more than twenty references, and about the navy there had only one reference, same thing goes for the air force (the force had only one reference). 37.111.194.165 (talk) 02:24, 8 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
