While Bimian Bangladesh might be notable, this page is a totally obvious advertisement. And I must say I love the image at the top. --Kelly Martin 06:14, Jan 15, 2005 (UTC)
- Keep this article on a notable airline, work on snipping out (and keeping out) advertising puff. -- Hoary 07:08, 2005 Jan 15 (UTC)
- I wikified it. Now it's a long stub, rather than just a very ugly page.
It could use cleanup, but keep, even if it was corporate vanity.Redirect. —Ben Brockert (42) 07:37, Jan 15, 2005 (UTC)- This is a copyvio (http://www.bangladeshonline.com/biman/glance.htm). Actually, I had put a copyvio notice yesterday, but the stupid net connection went off and I could not save my edit. Now I've listed it as a copyvio. utcursch 08:17, Jan 15, 2005 (UTC)
- Well that was a waste of my time. Oh well. —Ben Brockert (42) 09:02, Jan 15, 2005 (UTC)

- Delete, advertisement, copyright violation. Megan1967 01:32, 16 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- This article has been properly speedy deleted as a copyvio. Apart from this, the author couldn't spell as the correct name of the airline is Biman Bangladesh. As it happens, we already have a good article on this airline. Capitalistroadster 05:17, 16 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- On reflection, perhaps turn this into a Redirect to Biman Bangladesh to avoid future problems.Capitalistroadster 05:28, 16 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- Y'know, any time Image:Example.jpg shows up, you can pretty much assume the article is speedy deletable as a user test. Surely I would shot first and answered questions later on this one. --jpgordon∇∆∇∆ 06:43, 16 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- What can I say, I'm a sucker for wikification. —Ben Brockert (42) 07:06, Jan 16, 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. I assume it was someone's idea of a joke to list this international long haul carrier for deletion. Redirect to the more usual spelling, Biman Bangladesh, though the "Bimian" spelling is also common. Listing Biman Bangladesh for deletion will be treated by this editor as attempted disruption. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 14:55, 16 Jan 2005 (UTC)
