:({{Find sources AFD|title=Vijayanagara Campaigns in Sri Lanka}})

The article fails WP:GNG and is full of WP:OR and WP:SYNTH as none of the sources refers to any campaign name Vijayanagara Campaigns in Sri Lanka which lasted for 1386–1621 in the sources, the title itself is fabricated. Also, Most part of the article is written using AI.

• :the article was based on the all the expeditions sent by Vijayanagara Emperors to Enforce Tribute on Sri Lanka there isn't a single book covering all the campaigns of vijaynagara in Sri Lanka so I used multiple sources to cover all the expeditions in one single article. For example check out ummayud campaigns in India the sources didn't mention the campaign name also that doesn't mean the article was fabricated. Lion of Ariana (talk) 17:05, 21 February 2025 (UTC)

• Keep - the topic is notable and well documented. See the New Cambridge History of India: Vijayanagara[https://www.google.com/books/edition/The_New_Cambridge_History_of_India/OpxeaYQbGDMC?hl=en&gbpv=1&dq=%22Vijayanagara+Campaign%22&pg=PA28&printsec=frontcover], also [https://www.google.com/books/edition/Indian_Islamic_Architecture/aDP_jlCYouAC?hl=en&gbpv=1&dq=%22Vijayanagara+Campaign%22&pg=PA136&printsec=frontcover], [https://www.google.com/books/edition/Popular_Culture_and_Religion_in_Medieval/JVFuAAAAMAAJ?hl=en&gbpv=1&bsq=%22Vijayanagara+Campaign%22&dq=%22Vijayanagara+Campaign%22&printsec=frontcover], [https://www.google.com/books/edition/The_Journal_of_Oriental_Research/rmRjAAAAMAAJ?hl=en&gbpv=1&bsq=%22Vijayanagara+Campaign%22&dq=%22Vijayanagara+Campaign%22&printsec=frontcover].

• :All your sources mentions Vijayanagara Campaign against Bahmani Sultanate; while the article is about Vijayanagara Campaign against Sri Lanka. Consider withdrawing your keep vote. Mr.Hanes File:Speech bubble icon.svg Talk 02:49, 22 February 2025 (UTC)
• :@Herinalian You should check the article and the sources you shared again. None of them are related to this article, {{tq|All of the sources you shared mentions conflict between Vijaynagara and Bahmani sultanate. The article is about Vijaynagar campaigns in Sri Lanka.}} Koshuri ^(グ) 18:41, 25 February 2025 (UTC)

• Keep Delete - The topic has significant coverage of Vijayanagara's campaigns in Sri Lanka and fulfills GNG, and this article should not be deleted because the sources do not mention the title. Different reliable sources describe various campaigns led by Vijayanagara—which does not violate WP:OR.Dam222 🌋 (talk) 14:48, 25 February 2025 (UTC)

::As per Koshuri Sultan, The article contains fictional timeline and no sources described about the event specifically Dam222 🌋 (talk) 10:05, 26 February 2025 (UTC)

• I've checked all of the cited sources, None of them provides significant coverage to this campaign. None of the sources mentions that this campaign lasted for “1386–1621”, it's clearly a product of WP:OR and WP:SYNTH. If you have any reliable source which mentions that this campaign lasted for 1386–1621 (as mentioned in the article) and provides significant coverage then share it here.

• Delete: Clearly fails WP:GNG. I couldn't find enough WP:SIGCOV in any of the sources cited in the article to establish Notability (WP:N). Another problem with the article is that it is heavily based on original research and synthesis none of the sources mentions this event as {{tq|Vijayanagara Campaigns in Sri Lanka}} with the {{tq|fictitious timeline}} mentioned in the article. Hence I see no point in keeping this article. Koshuri ^(グ) 18:39, 25 February 2025 (UTC)
• :@Mr.Hanes The timeline isn't fictional the first Expedition to Sri Lanka was launched by Emperor Hari Hara II under the command of Virupaksha Raya in 1386 AD and the last expedition sent to Sri Lanka in 1621 AD by Raghunatha Nayak he was subordinate to Emperor Rama Deva Raya Lion of Ariana (talk) 11:09, 26 February 2025 (UTC)
• ::Where does it mentions independently that the timeline of the campaign is "1386–1621". It is clearly WP:OR Mr.Hanes File:Speech bubble icon.svg Talk 11:13, 26 February 2025 (UTC)

• Delete, as mentioned for the reasons above. Unless evidence exists to the contrary, the entire article is in effect a fabrication. DemocracyDeprivationDisorder (talk) 18:12, 28 February 2025 (UTC)
