Both this article and the companion article Mughal Artillery are based on a single 1903 book. The creator of these two articles has contributed only minor items to other articles about Indian subcontinent history. I have tagged these two articles for several problems, but really only rewriting will suffice to bring these two articles up to Wikipedia standards of historical articles.

As a member of the Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors, I cannot tag this article or its companion for copy-editing, as the problems are too severe for that approach. -- DThomsen8 ( talk) 00:47, 20 October 2012 (UTC) reply

Although the article was re-tagged (without a reason) in December 2012, the prose in many places remains incomprehensible to a native English speaker. Copyediting and rewriting are two different things. Mini apolis 17:30, 21 February 2014 (UTC) reply
