The contents in the page seems imaginary. There is no reference about the existence of something called Special Force - ParaCommando Division. Even the formation about which the article is about has not been created. An article which describes something that does not exist and has no reference of possibility of ever being created should not be in Wikipedia. SRS 00 t@lk, 19:37, 20 January 2019 (UTC)

- Delete None of the cited sources mention the putative division, and the usual searches haven't turned up sources. Perhaps closer to 2030 something will have been written about it in independent, reliable, secondary sources, but until then delete per WP:NOTCRYSTAL. --Worldbruce (talk) 05:11, 21 January 2019 (UTC)
*Merge to Para-Commando Brigade (Bangladesh) - the brigade which is, per the 2030 plan, supposed to grow to a division. Sourced future plans for units have a place in the unit page. Icewhiz (talk) 09:20, 21 January 2019 (UTC)
- Merge any relevant content per Icewhiz; delete (merge without redirect) article name, which appears inappropriate. Buckshot06 (talk) 11:19, 21 January 2019 (UTC)

- Comment For those recommending merge (Icewhiz—Buckshot06—আফতাবুজ্জামান): I'm willing to consider merge as an alternative to deletion if someone will identify a reliably sourced factoid in Special Force - ParaCommando Division that isn't already in Para-Commando Brigade (Bangladesh). --Worldbruce (talk) 08:04, 4 February 2019 (UTC)
- Delete if you can't identify anything. Buckshot06 (talk) 08:12, 4 February 2019 (UTC)
- Delete. @Worldbruce: Following an re-examination of the sources in the article - I concur with Worldbruce. Specifically, I don't see which source discusses this as being a division in the Forces Goal 2030 plan. Some of the sources (dailystar) are misrepresented (source says 2nd battalion -> article 2nd brigade). I apologize for not being through in evaluating the cited sources in the article, but would suggest that future nominations based a WP:V fail say state specifically that the cited sources are misrepresented. I am striking my merge !vote and changing to delete on the basis that the contents fail WP:V. Icewhiz (talk) 08:16, 4 February 2019 (UTC)

- Delete. The Para-Commando Brigade (Bangladesh) article exists; which the most credilbe references in this article, per The Daily Star (and even the photo) are really referring to. The reference that a new Division is being formed in 2030 to absord the existing Brigade is junk. Could even be a hoax. WP:NUKEIT Britishfinance (talk) 17:07, 11 February 2019 (UTC)
