message: Does anyone else think we should hang a notice up that calls attention to the shit that's in here? I'm not calling into question the integrity or the intentions of the persons making the edits but could we get someone who has time on their hands to go through this article with a finetoothcomb just to make it readable?

thread_title: Xenosaga song

message: No mention of the Jan 11 govt! Why not mention that Iazuddin resigned from the CTG on Jan 11, under 'invisible' pressure (although the reasons he gave were the 22 Jan election going to be a charade, the country heading for a conflict, etc.)? And then, this new CTG has declared their war against graft and targeted big fshes. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 67.80.238.30 (talk) 04:27, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  What about the new CTG? 

message: Whoever is repeatedly adding the statement about Minus two formula in the intro part, please note: "Recently she has been subject to Minus 2 Formula" - is not an encyclopedic statement, nor does it belong to the introduction of this article even if it is corret. 
Minus 2 Formula has been added in the "See also" section. If you think necessary, feel free to add a more refined sentence in the main body; but please do not mess with the reasonabley well written introduction paragraph.-Arman Aziz 01:08, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: If it's the rape you're talking about, it is a well-circulated rumour, although the rumour states that her other son Arafat Rahman Coco is a warchild, which "explains" why his mom didn't put him forward in the political scene. Ratibgreat (talk) 17:07, 1 April 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  vandalism? 

message: The below quote reads wrong. It might be trying to say that her actual date of birth is unknown and that she chose this one or I could see this as vandalism. Either way, I'm not sure enough to actually make a change in the text.
   "(This Birthdate made by herself in last few years, There is no actual birth date exist for this woman)"
It is not fact which one real Birthday, we should consider that in which day she celebrate her birthday. we are well known that she celebrate her birthday on 15,August.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Msfz (talk • contribs) 20:44, 23 July 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  vandalism?? part 2 

message: Something tells me that this line is incorrect, firstly Charlie Harper was written out of the show last year and also the season ended in May 2012 therefore no episodes in June, other than the fact that it just sounds ridiculous. 
In June 2012, she was a guest star in the last episode of 'Two and a Half Men'. She played the part of Motashota Padmara, who was a favourite hook-up lady of Charlie Harper.

thread_title:  vandalism 3:The Reckoning? 

message: The lack of sources creates an overly positive view of her leadership in government. Columbia Electronic Encyclopedia notes that from 2003, there were rising strikes, protests and violence in the country. The military-backed caretaker government postponed the scheduled 2007 election while pursuing corruption charges against both parties. In 2007 it charged Zia and some of her family members with corruption, and kept her isolated from politics for most of a year. Why isn't any of that in the Lead? Have not done enough research yet about her earlier governments, but problems as well as achievements have to be noted for NPOV.Parkwells (talk) 15:19, 23 April 2013 (UTC)
thread_title: Needs more sources

message: These sections need clean-up; the first part is especially difficult to follow and needs RS.Parkwells (talk) 15:36, 23 April 2013 (UTC)
thread_title: Post Third Term and Caretaker government

message: The crisis at post-third term and establishment of military takeover of caretaker government probably need a separate article - too much space is given to it here for a bio of Zia, causing UNDUE WEIGHT. Also, the language is this section is speculative and biased. Needs thorough editing to establish more neutral tone (i.e., "betrayed by military" is questionable, unless from RS and should be quoted, if so.) Parkwells (talk) 16:06, 23 April 2013 (UTC)
thread_title: Too much detail and speculation

message: If the subject's birthdate cannot be reliably ascertained (as I note from this article), maybe the best compromise is to use a  tag.  That's what we do in just about every other article where the specific birthdate is not known. What I am proposing would look like this:
:Begum Khaleda Zia (; born  September—August 1945...
We would provide appropriate sources to explain the discrepancy. Thoughts? Cyphoidbomb (talk) 21:48, 4 February 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Birthdates again 

message: In this edit I removed good-faith content submitted by . The user is describing this event as an assassination attempt, yet the article states: "Fazle Elahi Akbar, a retired general who heads the BNP chief's private security team, said shots were fired at Zia's bullet-proofed car while she was inside but stopped short of calling it an assassination attempt." So if the security guy doesn't call it an assassination attempt, why would we? Cyphoidbomb (talk) 16:10, 3 August 2015 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: Usually her husband  Ziaur Rahman  is popularly known as only "Zia". Everyone thinks about him when said "Zia". We should use Khaleda or Khaleda Zia in this article. - Mar11 (talk) 19:41, 7 May 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: , I appreciate your note, but we wouldn't refer to Ziaur Rahman as "Zia" in the article, we would refer to him as Rahman. A little common sense is required of our readers to be able to interpret academic prose and to distinguish the article's subject from someone else's nickname. Regards, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 19:46, 7 May 2016 (UTC)

thread_title:  Surname 

message: 1945- 15 August but there is a mistake Md. Morshed5379 (talk) 15:41, 14 August 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: - Generally speaking, when you make a request for other editors to make a change to an article, explaining how it's a mistake, what the correct information should be, and then providing references from reliable mainstream sources is usually the most helpful approach. That said, please see the "Birthday controversy" section in the article, which explains the discrepancy. Thanks, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 01:53, 15 August 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  Replace this date 

message: With regard to Md. Morshed's concerns above, another option might be to print the year of birth if that's not disputed via the  template, then point editors to the relevant section on the matter. For example, something along the lines of " (reports vary, see Birthday controversy)". Zsa Zsa Gabor is a minor example of how we could report an age discrepancy. Thoughts?
