We don't know much about much of her life, nearly all the bits we do know about have been controversial, and her legacy has been heavily contested.

Still, I hope I've managed to muddle through this mess to create a coherent article on India's most revered heroine. Formerly one of the Women in Green Hot 100, this article has received a GA review from {{u|MSincccc}} and copyediting from {{u|Grumpylawnchair}}; I thank them both for their help. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 21:56, 21 April 2025 (UTC)

==Image review==

  • File:Rani_of_jhansi.jpg needs a US tag
  • File:Rani_of_Jhansi,_watercolour_on_ivory,_c._1857.png: when and where was this first published and what is the author's date of death?
  • File:1857_jhansi_fort2.jpg: source link is dead; when and where was this first published?
  • File:Sonia_Gandhi_as_Rani_Lakshmibai.jpg needs a more expansive FUR, and that may need a different tagging
  • File:1957_Rani_Laxmi_Bai_2.jpg is mistagged. Nikkimaria (talk) 04:05, 22 April 2025 (UTC)
  • The first, third, and fifth should be fixed {{u|Nikkimaria}}; I'm not sure why those details matter for the second when [https://collection.nam.ac.uk/detail.php?acc=1959-11-372-1 its owners state the miniatures are out of copyright]; and I'm not sure what you mean for the fourth. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 16:36, 25 April 2025 (UTC)
  • On the second, it currently has tagging indicating it is PD because the author died over 100 years ago, and because it was published before 1930; can those things be verified? On the fourth, the purpose of use indicates the depiction is "as shown by the similarity to other statues and depictions in the article" - if the other statues and depictions show this, why is a non-free image needed? Depending on how the FUR is developed, it may or may not meet the purposes of use covered by the current tag. Nikkimaria (talk) 01:28, 26 April 2025 (UTC)
