There is an error in dates under "Translations" section:

A Persian translation of Mahabharata, titled Razmnameh, was produced at Akbar's orders, by Faizi and ʽAbd al-Qadir Badayuni in the 18th century.[76]

According to cited sources the century should be 16th and not 18th. 24.14.81.72 (talk) 03:20, 19 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The Google books preview of the book doesn't include the cited page, and I can't seem to find it online elsewhere. If you have access to the page, it would be much appreciated if you could post a picture of it somewhere (in the worst case, I can try to get a physical copy from the National Art Library, but that will have to wait until next week...). Thanks. Liu1126 (talk) 09:20, 20 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done for now: Like Liu said, we do not have access to that source. A quote would be very much appreciated. Aaron Liu (talk) 15:10, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
