Bludgeon

You might want to read wp:bludgeon, you do not have to respond to every comment. Slatersteven (talk) 12:54, 3 January 2024 (UTC)

Haha. I will certainly do it. Btw I found another recently created article that fails GNG. See Battle of Thane. I am not much experienced creating an speedy deletion discussion. Could you do it after double checking the sources and notability? Imperial^[AFCND] 12:57, 3 January 2024 (UTC)

@ImperialAficionado, if there's any discussion to be had, you're not looking for "speedy deletion". That's WP:CSD, and it's only for some very specific conditions like "there is literally no comprehensible text" and "sole author requests deletion". If you think it's very obvious that something ought to be deleted, such that no one is likely to disagree, that's not a speedy deletion (use WP:PROD for that). -- asilvering (talk) 23:16, 3 January 2024 (UTC)

Yes. I found that lately. Thanks. Imperial^[AFCND] 01:16, 4 January 2024 (UTC)

Tagging pages for speedy deletion

Hello, ImperialAficionado,

Please review Criteria for Speedy Deletion so you are more familiar with the different criteria and when they apply. You can't take a page that is a redirect, blank the page and then tag it for deletion as an article with no context. It was never an article, it was a redirect. The appropriate criteria is CSD R2 which is a redirect from main space to Draft space. You shouldn't need to guess at what criteria is appropriate, if you want to patrol pages you have to know them very well and that comes from reviewing the criteria, not skimming over the page, and seeing when they are appropriate and which namespace they apply to.

If you have any questions about CSD or other deletion processes, please bring them to the Teahouse. Thank you for your help. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 08:11, 9 January 2024 (UTC)

Also, you don't need to tag the Talk page for speedy deletion, Twinkle automatically deletes talk pages when it deletes articles, templates or drafts. Thanks again. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 08:13, 9 January 2024 (UTC)

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved.

Do not edit articles involving Mewar and Malwa conflict

All the mainstream historians have accepted that Sultans of Malwa, Gujarat and Nagore were defeated by Rana Kumbha conclusively and they had to retreat.

Do not edit battle of Haldighati article

Hello Imperial here's the source stating Mughals had 80,000 troops and both sides claimed victory please read this source before editing https://www.google.co.in/books/edition/Maharana_Pratap/tNMQzgEACAAJ?hl=en R2dra (talk) 09:07, 25 February 2024 (UTC)

later work, Nainsi’s Khyat , by one of the kingdom of Marwar’s

ministers, Muhnot Nainsi, maintains that he commanded

40,000 soldiers. A still later work, Kaviraj Shyamaldas’s Vir Vinod

Why you are nominating to delete image which is sourced

@ImperialAficionado As you have nominated a my image foe the greatest extent of Mewar for deletion. I have given the page no 452 in A History of Rajasthan by Rima Hooja. If you at that time was not able to find source you would have contacted me. Nevertheless I am citing the source from the mentioned book " As a consequence of Sanga’s exploits, the borders of Mewar by this period extended from near Mandu (the capital of Malwa), in the south to Peela Khal (Pilya Khal), a small rivulet near Bayana and Agra, in the north-east, and deep into the desert country (stretching towards the river Indus) west and north-west of Mewar." Rawn3012 (talk) 04:33, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

@ImperialAficionado I hope that after reading the source you would take back your request Rawn3012 (talk) 04:38, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

That's not how mapping works. One source should show the map itself with its boarders. Pinging @पाटलिपुत्र. He can help you with it. Your map was just an ellipse with awful boarder, including unnecessary texts. That's why I nominated that for deletion.Imperial^[AFCND] 04:52, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

@ImperialAficionadoImperialAficionadoThere is no rule on wikepedia regarding that if you have source which is clearly mentioning the territorial extent you can make it. See the map of Chola Empire on its wikepedia page Rawn3012 (talk) 05:00, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

Just wait for Pataliputra to come here. Whatever decision he makes, I am with him, as he is far more experienced in mapping. Imperial^[AFCND] 05:06, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

Which is the map under deletion request? Can someone give a link? पाटलिपुत्र (Pataliputra) (talk) 06:01, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

@पाटलिपुत्र, here it is [1] Imperial^[AFCND] 06:05, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

@पाटलिपुत्र, there are several other maps uploaded by Rawn3012, which may subjected to copyright violation. Check his contribution section on commons. Imperial^[AFCND] 06:14, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

@ImperialAficionado We are discussing on the map above. Talking about the prior history I am accepting that the maps[only some] are subject to copyright which I have agreed to delete but as I was busy with some other task. I was not be able to it. Rawn3012 (talk) 06:26, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

Map of the territory of the Sisodiyas, in Schwartzberg, Joseph E. (1978). A Historical atlas of South Asia. Chicago: University of Chicago Press. p. 148, map XIV.4 (c). ISBN 0226742210.

I am attaching the map derived from the Schwartzberg Atlas. The [2] map seems rather exaggerated, especially the northern extension: the border should stop well before Uttar Pradesh. Technically, it is accepted to make a map based on textual evidence only, but here the text is a bit vague, and the map shows a larger territory: "As a consequence of Sanga’s exploits, the borders of Mewar by this period extended from near Mandu (the capital of Malwa), in the south to Peela Khal (Pilya Khal), a small rivulet near Bayana and Agra, in the north-east, and deep into the desert country (stretching towards the river Indus) west and north-west of Mewar." Better to follow Schwartzberg. Also, using a modern map as a base is a bad idea: it is anachronistic. पाटलिपुत्र (Pataliputra) (talk) 06:26, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

@पाटलिपुत्र The map given by you does not include Rana Sanga's territories of Northern Gujarat(Visalnagar,Vadnagar,Patan and Idar) which he conquered in Sanga's Invasion of Gujarat also the other territories such as Marwar and Bikaner. For your point that map should end before Uttar pradesh you hade to check this line from A History Of Rajasthan by Rima Hooja page 453" The Princes of Marwar and Amber did him homage and the Raos of Gwalior, Ajmer, Sikrl, Raisen, KalpI, Chanderl, Bundi, Gagraun, Rampura and Abu served him as tributaries.” It includes Kalpi which is in Uttarpradesh. The map can be improved. By nominating it for deletion is wrong step Rawn3012 (talk) 06:39, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

@Rawn3012, Schwartzberg Atlas is a widely used source for mapping in commons. Also, it is more reliable than texts, this we are going with it. Imperial^[AFCND] 06:41, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

If source is there than what is widely or not widely Rawn3012 (talk) 06:44, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

Rima Hooja is one of the best historian of India and especially in history of Rajasthan and Mewar Rawn3012 (talk) 06:45, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

@पाटलिपुत्र If you agree, I would create another map by using background from Demis Map Server with proper citing of sources Rawn3012 (talk) 06:51, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

@Ranadhira Seems like the title is an invented name. Can't find "Battle of Delhi" of 1764 in WP:RS. Citations needs a cleanup. Imperial^[AFCND] 08:12, 7 March 2024 (UTC)

I was also unable to get any reliable sources. The two refs that are there also barely mention this event. The steps you have taken are correct, but I cannot see any future for the page. Ranadhira (talk) 10:57, 7 March 2024 (UTC)

Hey@ImperialAficionado Do you have the book pdf of Mewar under Maharana Kumbha by Upendra Nath Dey. I have read all the the other the books based on his life but this one is remaining. As you edited Article of Battles of Mandalgarh and Banas by citing his book. I hope you would be having that.

Rawn3012 (talk) 08:21, 10 March 2024 (UTC)

Hello Rawn, I had access to that book. But consider using https://archive.org/details/history-of-medieval-malwa-upendranath-day this, written by Upendra Nath Day himself. The context is the same. Regards. Imperial^[AFCND] 09:04, 10 March 2024 (UTC)

Normal Talk

Hey@ImperialAficionado I have recently made an article regarding the Mewar-malwa conflict and have nearly completed the work for Mewar- Gujarat conflicts, but while doing these things. One thing came to my mind that Malwa and Gujarat not only fought wars with Mewar but also fought with themselves then I got the idea to create a separate or edit the newly created Mewar-Malwa conflict article into a new article which would describe the struggles between Mewar, Gujarat, and Malwa. It would be a time-consuming process as the article should contain a struggle between all three.

What do you think? Rawn3012 (talk) 14:46, 16 March 2024 (UTC)

Hello. I think you could create the "List of wars between Mewar, Malwa and Gujarat" just like List of wars involving the Delhi Sultanate. So it wouldn't be much time consuming, and it would be much engaging to do. It's all up to you. Regards. Imperial^[AFCND] 15:47, 16 March 2024 (UTC)

Stop removing citations in Pala Tibetan War

Please stop removing citations in Pala Tibetan War

R. D. Banerji is generally regarded as a reliable historian, with his work on the economic history of Bengal being particularly well-regarded;he was also an Indian archaeologist and an officer of the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI).

To add the viewpoint of R. D. Banerji, I need to give citations of his book. So, please stop removing the citations. Based Kashmiri (talk) 14:22, 2 April 2024 (UTC)

See WP:RAJ. It is a consensus of not using Raj era sources, especially of British officers in British Raj. R. D Banerji was indeed not an Indian archeology officer, but a Raj officer. It is not just an essay, but is widely accepted at WP:HISTRS. Adding that again and again just cause edit warring and loss of editing privileges. Take care, and try using better sources instead of sticking into a single source. Imperial^[AFCND] 14:36, 2 April 2024 (UTC)

Then should i just remove it since that's the viewpoint of R.D. Banerji and there is no other source supporting his claim except 'modern review (Calcutta)'? Based Kashmiri (talk) 15:39, 2 April 2024 (UTC)

Modern review of Calcutta is a journal. Ask your doubts at WP:RSN, to check whether if it's reliable or not. Best Imperial^[AFCND] 16:07, 2 April 2024 (UTC)

OK, thanks for your help! I'm not that new to Wikipedia, so I don't know much about it.

Would it be okay for you if I asked something in future if I had a doubt? Based Kashmiri (talk) 16:16, 2 April 2024 (UTC)

I am too not much experienced here tbh. You can freely ask your doubts at Wikipedia:Teahouse and Wikipedia:Help desk, where the more experienced people will help you. And, feel free to ask any doubts and opinions from me, related to History. Good luck. Imperial^[AFCND] 16:32, 2 April 2024 (UTC)

Sock tagging

Hey, you just tagged two users as confirmed socks. First, you shouldn't be tagging any users as socks. That is reserved to CheckUsers, SPI clerks, and administrators. Second, those socks were not "confirmed". They were blocked by me. Don't do any sock tagging again.--Bbb23 (talk) 15:44, 4 April 2024 (UTC)

My bad. Thanks for letting me know. Imperial^[AFCND] 15:46, 4 April 2024 (UTC)

Sorry about it. Can you ask your concerns at WP: Teahouse? I am at my WP:Wikibreak, and can't put more time on it. Teahouse will help you in editing, without making disruption. Tell them about the concerns you have. Imperial^[AFCND] 10:43, 10 April 2024 (UTC)

Bahmani–Vijayanagar War (1398)

Military history coordinators review the bot rating assessments of articles. I have read Bahmani–Vijayanagar War (1398). The terms "lacs of hun" and "lahks of tankas" appear in the final paragraph. I have linked lahk to the article about that topic. I assume "lacs" is a different measurement. There are no articles on hun as a monetary unit or on tankas. Can you give a further explanation, perhaps in a footnote if necessary, as to the meaning and value of these units? I think it would be especially helpful to give an estimate of the worth in current dollars or pounds. I think a further explanation would help the reader understand the size and worth of these payments. Thanks. Donner60 (talk) 01:41, 22 April 2024 (UTC)

Hello. Both "Lakh" and "Lac" refers to Lakh. It was the problem within the sources. Tankas were one of the currencies used in medieval India, lacks a seperate article on it. Imperial^[AFCND] 08:53, 22 April 2024 (UTC)

Responding to your message from Talk:Battle of Devarakonda

Responding here as it relates to more than one page/a larger issues. In regards to the request to add the aforementioned page to the bundled AfD, unfortunately I can't add it now that discussion has begun and others have offered their opinions in the discussion; the rules of AfD state that an article requires the full 7-day discussion period. This one can be nominated separetely; if you'd like to do that, I would suggest using WP:Twinkle as it simplified the process. Be sure to read the rules of WP:AfD and ground your deletion rational in policy-based arguments.

However, in regards to the editor and the pages previously discussed, I have a feeling that there are large OR and HOAX issues at play. I think discussing this at ANI would be required, my plan is to thoroughly examine the references provided all the sources and, if necessary, discuss this there. microbiologyMarcus ^{[petri dish·growths]} 12:44, 25 April 2024 (UTC)

The above is purely notificational and, if you're busy, no response needed. Enjoy your wikibreak and good luck with exams. microbiologyMarcus ^{[petri dish·growths]} 13:03, 25 April 2024 (UTC)

Thank! I do believe there's something amiss. Another brand new user is actively editing within the same field as the author of these articles. It's concerning that the author isn't making an effort to learn the policies, nor is providing proper edit summaries for their contentious changes. Thank you for your well wishes for the exams. Regards. Imperial^[AFCND] 13:11, 25 April 2024 (UTC)

Hello @MicrobiologyMarcus, I looked into the conflict and found some good sources. I made a mistake in my search earlier, so I might have missed some info. I'm not sure if it meets GNG.

.

There are copyright issues in some parts, and I'm not sure if there are more. Also, the article could be better if it was written in a fair way. Imperial^[AFCND] 13:46, 25 April 2024 (UTC)

Siege of Vijayanagar

I have reviewed the bot assessment of the Siege of Vijayanagar. I noted that the infobox states that the Bahmani force was 40,000 and the Vijayanagar force was approximately 1 million. These figures are not repeated in the text. Can you provide a citation for these numbers? Certainly smaller forces have defeated larger ones, and circumstances seem to have gone against the Vijayanarar force, but it seems all out of proportion for a force of 40,000 (even cavalry) to defeat a force of 1 million. A citation would be helpful to avoid questions about a force this large being defeated by such a small force. Thanks. Donner60 (talk) 04:38, 26 April 2024 (UTC)

Yes. That should be cited in the infobox. Imperial^[AFCND] 04:40, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
