New enough and long enough. QPQ done. The citations seem to be to primary sources in Burmese, which doesn't really bother me, since they appear to be treated straightforwardly in this way by RS (e.g., Myanmar in the Fifteenth Century). Still, some English-language sourcing would be beneficial for the reader. The submission of Thihapate in 1366 is on pp. 58–59 of Myanmar in the Fifteenth Century.
I'm also not crazy about either hook. Hybernator, can you suggested another hook? Srnec (talk) 01:17, 28 April 2022 (UTC)
- Thanks Srnec for taking the time to look for an English language source. I should have checked (Aung-Thwin 2017) since I have the book. I've checked my other English language books on Burmese history. The only other one that mentions the 1366 capture of Taungdwin is (Harvey 1925: 81) -- which has one sentence, without mentioning Thihapate by name. Anyway, I've added (Aung-Thwin 2017 58–59) and (Aung-Thwin 2017: 84) in the article. As for the hook, how about this?
- ATL2: ... that Thihapate withstood the siege of Taungdwin by King Thado Minbya of Ava until after his top commander was assassinated? (Sources: (Aung-Thwin 2017: 58–59); chronicles -- (Yazawin Thit Vol. 1 2012: 183) and (Hmannan Vol. 1 2003: 400))
