Talk:Battle of Pavan Khind

message: Spelling rh as in Aligarh is particular in Northern India. But in Maharashtra, d is used and not rh. Note that Raigad is different that Raigarh. Name of the fort is spelled as Vishalgad and not as Vishalgarh.

thread_title: Maratha

message: This article appears to primarily depict a (somewhat folkloric/pop-culture) view of the battle from the Maratha culture. It makes no mention of commonly-cited claims that Shivaji negotiated a surrender of the fort, it casts the rearguard action in legendary terms ("They were fatally wounded, soldiers of Siddi Masood were taken-aback by the sight of those 300 soldiers bleeding heavily but fighting brutally with swords in both hands they kept fighting"), and it makes uncited major statements such as that this battle defined the Marathas as an independent power. Lacking strong sourcing it is very likely that this article, much like Shivaji before our major cleanup of the last year and some, is heavily impacted by historical-fiction accounts of events (television serials, pop-history accounts, etc) rather than by serious scholarship.

replies: text: The battle and its background are two different things. To truncate the narration of battle based on some lack of mention of negotiation by Shivaji looks more like an excuse for truncation. As for POV, it IS part of Maratha conquests and just because it is "rearguard" it does not diminish its importance to Marathas or the greatness of achievements. The author of this "POV concern" note must to well to read through the exaggerated glorification of battles all through wiki right from the spartan one.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.167.254.136 (talk) 19:37, 7 August 2015 (UTC)

text: Would pyrrhic victory be more fitting. From my (admittedly hasty and limited) reading it appears the Maratha were trying to stall the advance and did so, but at the cost of their own destruction. -- LCU ActivelyDisinterested «@» °∆t° 16:34, 18 April 2024 (UTC)

replies: text: Could be I deal with RS more than conflict infoboxes. Maybe 'See aftermath' would be more appropriate then, the context the the result could then be explained in detail in the article. -- LCU ActivelyDisinterested «@» °∆t° 20:21, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
