The result was delete. Mughal Civil War was also thrown in here as a drive-by nomination. No action taken on that; if you believe Mughal Civil War should also be deleted, please bring it to AfD on its own. -- RoySmith (talk) 15:32, 3 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I just took a look at Mughal Civil War; when I wrote the above, I didn't realize it had no content at all. I'm going to delete that too under WP:G8 -- RoySmith (talk) 15:37, 3 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Cannot find references to event. Grubbiv (talk) 22:37, 26 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

None of the references mention the Battle of Sikandarabad.

One of the references (History of India, vol 2) by Mountstuart Elphinstone can be purchased as a Kindle Edition from Amazon for $3 which I have done. It does not mention the battle.

The first picture is actually of a mosque in Najibabad which is over 100km away from Sikandarabad. Not clear that it has anything to do with Sikandarabad.

The second picture is of a fort built in 1755 (a year after the battle).
