QPQ: - "NA"
Overall: AGF on hook citation (have verified elsewhere, eg The First Anglo-Maratha War, 1774-1783); promoter to GA status has since been blocked as a sockpuppet, Maculosae tegmine lyncis (talk) 07:51, 18 July 2020 (UTC)
- The GA review was completed by a sockpuppet. SL93 (talk) 02:18, 30 July 2020 (UTC)
- GA reassessment, it makes sense to hold off closing this nomination until we see whether the reassessment closes as "delist" or "keep". If the latter, the DYK nomination can continue; if it is delisted, then the nomination should be closed at that time. BlueMoonset (talk) 04:33, 2 August 2020 (UTC)]
- The article has been delisted as a GA, so it is not eligible for DYK at the present time. Should it eventually be nominated for and listed again as a GA, it will be eligible for DYK at that time. BlueMoonset (talk) 20:18, 11 August 2020 (UTC)

GA Reassessment
- This discussion is Talk:Baji Rao I/GA2. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the reassessment.
The article was recently accorded GA status by a somewhat prolific sockpuppet who clearly did not understand GA criteria. It is obvious from my recent edits that it fails even on basic issues, such as overlinks, inconsistent spellings,
Despite my efforts and those of others, there remain significant problems even among the issues I have specifically highlighted above. I note that I had to remove one quotation because it had three cites, all of which had different versions of what Baji Rao supposedly said - that suggests we may need to review every statement against the cited sources. - Sitush (talk) 03:34, 28 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delist per the issues raised by Sitush. Clearly not GA standard at present. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 04:01, 28 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delist, while I don't feel the article is overly detailed given its very specific topic, it is clear from an initial look that it could do with more work, including copyediting and a more sufficient lead (Criteria 1). Issues regarding sources raised are concerning. CMD (talk) 13:34, 28 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delist, per the concerns raised above and my comments here. Vanamonde (Talk) 14:48, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
- Delist, I was quite surprised that it was granted GA status. Jonathansammy (talk) 15:01, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
Outcome - clear consensus that the GA assessment by what turned out to be a sock was flawed and the article remains below GA standard. Delisting. - Sitush (talk) 17:23, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
Reassessment
I think the article needs more citations as there are quite a few "citation needed" tags. Also, the prose style isn't the best but focusing on the citations would probably get the article to a B-class level. PrathuCoder (talk) 00:16, 17 January 2024 (UTC)
