  • Interesting article! I've read The Cambridge History of China which briefly covers the Ming-Burma conflict, but this is the first time I read about it from the Burmese perspective, which is refreshing. Article is new enough, long enough, well referenced, and neutral. Hook is interesting and supported with offline sources, accepted AGF. Also AGF for copyvio. QPQ is done. Good to go. -Zanhe (talk) 01:43, 6 May 2019 (UTC)
