Spelling Error

The correct spelling of 'Barisal' is BARISHAL. Md. Asfath Ullah (talk) 07:27, 6 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

Not on Wikipedia at this time. Nor on Encyclopedia Britannica, nor on Banglapedia: The National Encyclopedia of Bangladesh. Some day the WP:COMMONNAME may change, but it could take years. See Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Bangladesh#Placename changes and Wikipedia policy. --Worldbruce (talk) 15:55, 6 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

English Spelling Change

Bangladesh Government decision to change the English Spelling ( Barisal to BARISHAL ) Zahid609639 (talk) 12:40, 13 December 2021 (UTC)Reply

Please see the discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Bangladesh/Archive 7#Placename changes and Wikipedia policy to understand why Wikipedia uses the spellings it does. The government of Bangladesh doesn't dictate what is correct here. If you wish to change the spelling, you may seek a new consensus (preferably at a general location, such as Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Bangladesh, since multiple articles are affected). If you have evidence that the circumstances on which the original consensus was formed have changed, present it there. --Worldbruce (talk) 15:15, 13 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
