Naming conventions for Bangladesh?[edit]

We are on the verge of an edit war over the title of this page, so it is time to stop and discuss naming conventions. See Wikipedia:Naming conventions (geographic names) § Disambiguation. Note that at Wikipedia:Naming conventions (geographic names) § Region-specific guidance, there is no specific guidance for Bangladesh.

Page move history:

14:35, 30 November 2014 Wikinga.int moved page Paltan, Dhaka to Paltan, Dhaka, Bangladesh over redirect (Paltan is a most busy city in the Dhaka Division of Bangladesh)
14:15, 30 November 2014 Aftab1995 moved page Paltan, Dhaka, Bangladesh to Paltan, Dhaka over redirect (see Wikipedia:Article titles)
06:40, 29 November 2014 Wikinga.int moved page Paltan, Dhaka to Paltan, Dhaka, Bangladesh over redirect (Paltan is a most busy city in the Dhaka Division of Bangladesh)
17:15, 26 November 2014 Aftab1995 moved page Paltan, Dhaka, Bangladesh to Paltan, Dhaka
10:55, 10 November 2014 Armaanaziz moved page Paltan to Paltan, Dhaka, Bangladesh (Paltan is a most busy city in the Dhaka Division of Bangladesh)

I see that the WP:primary topic for Dhaka is the capital city of Bangladesh, and not Dhaka District or Dhaka Division. So, Paltan, Dhaka implies that Paltan is part of the capital city of Bangladesh itself. I'm wondering, if Dhaka, Bangladesh is unnecessary disambiguation (that currently redirects to Dhaka), isn't Paltan, Dhaka, Bangladesh also unnecessary disambiguation?

Let us halt the dispute for a while and set up a naming convention for Bangladesh there. – nafSadh did say 00:27, 1 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
