... that Smin Awa Naing's regiment mortally wounded Crown Prince Minye Kyawswa of Ava, effectively ending Ava's most serious invasion of the Hanthawaddy Kingdom? Source: Chronicle sources on the actual battle of Dala: (Maha Yazawin Vol. 2 2006: 48), (Yazawin Thit Vol. 1 2012: 259) and (Hmannan Vol. 2 2003: 43)
Academic sources on the battle being the height of the war, and how "little more fighting" (Harvey 1925: 95) continued listlessly and "half-heartedly", (Htin Aung 1967: 92–93)

General: Article is new enough and long enough
New enough: Long enough:

Policy compliance:

Adequate sourcing:
Neutral:
Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:
Other problems: - I don't see the "most serious invasion" part in the article itself. The closest would be "most fierce attacks of the war", but it doesn't refer to them as a single invasion.

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Cited: Interesting:

QPQ: Done.

Overall: Mostly fine except for what I commented on above. As soon as that's addressed, the hook will be ready. An anonymous username, not my real name 01:57, 23 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

An anonymous username, not my real name, thanks for the review. That it was the height the war was mentioned in the article with a couple of academic citations. I've rewritten the sentence for better clarity. Please review again. Thanks. Hybernator (talk) 01:52, 24 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the speedy improvement. It's all good now
