Editorial summary

This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Kazipara metro station” as metro rail station in Dhaka. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.

Editorial reviewA strong orientation record where physical form, institutional use and historical geography need to be read together. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—2023—that can be checked directly. The selected authority fields contribute no independent date. The account is most persuasive where Kazipara, metro and station can be independently traced.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the places & architecture register because the source frames it as metro rail station in Dhaka. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

Maps, plans, fabric surveys and administrative records can establish how the site’s name, extent and function changed over time. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 18, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q113968521. Authority coordinates are 23.799, 90.372. None of the 1 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2023.

Critical limits

A single description cannot reconcile every naming convention, rebuilding phase or administrative transfer associated with a place. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Treat names, boundaries and functions as historically changeable. Maps, plans, inventories and administrative records can clarify what the place meant at different dates.
