Sher Shah Suri

Nominator(s): Noorullah (talk) 07:26, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sher Shah Suri was the founder of the Sur Empire. His significance in Indian and Afghan history is certainly undoubted, and his reforms set up the basis for Mughal administration after him. His reign is noted for its justice, military victories, and significant reforms as aforementioned. I'm also really looking to more experienced editors to highlight areas which can be improved. -- Thank you in advance for reading through this article and giving your thoughts.

Oppose Sorry to say the article isn't ready for promotion. It needs copyediting to make the prose more fluent, as it stands it often sounds odd to my ears. Also, the one sentence sections need to be merged and the number of quotations reduced or better still, eliminated. There is too much to do here at FAC. I suggest withdrawing the nomination and bringing it back here later in the year when the much needed work has been completed. Graham Beards (talk) 10:23, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sadly Graham is correct. The prose requires considerable work and so I am archiving this nomination. I look forward to seeing the article back here once this has been done. Gog the Mild (talk) 11:50, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
