Talk:Fazlur Rahman Khan

message: User:Ragib's edit summary argument as to why a fair use stamp image can be used to illustrate the subject depicted on the stamp:
:well, a lot of precedent exists from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Fair_use_stamp_images , so unless all of them have been removed, the use of the image should be ok
This is a specious argument. You're basically saying, "Everyone else does it, so it's OK". If every editor made the same argument, then none of the improperly used stamp images would get removed. Even if there are (many) other cases, it still doesn't make it right here. Read  carefully -- it says that stamp images can only be used to discuss the stamp itself. As the saying goes, a journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step. howcheng  {chat} 19:53, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Ok, thanks for the explanation. I found that most of the images on :Category:Fair_use_stamp_images are used in the articles on the biography-page of the person depicted. These should all be removed. --Ragib 19:57, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

message: The article says Kahn was born in Dhaka, Bangladesh in 1929.  As Bangladesh did not exist in 1929, would be more accurate to say something like Dhaka, British India (now Bangladesh)? The reference cited does not mention Bangladesh but labels it "then British India". Goldnpuppy (talk) 21:59, 1 February 2016 (UTC)

message: If "SOM" is shorthand for "Skidmore, Owings & Merrill", so define it at first mention of "Skidmore, Owings & Merrill". It takes too much effort to figure it out as the article is written now. You have to read the entire article, you can't just search for "SOM" and find that the first time it occurs it is preceded by "Skidmore, Owings & Merrill".2604:2000:C682:2D00:ADF5:6982:FA5A:E273 (talk) 05:18, 3 April 2017 (UTC)
