The title of this page, "Mughal-Maratha wars," is probably incorrect. What had existed between the declining Mughals and the early Maratha rulers was not a state of open and declared armed conflict (which is the meaning of war). It was more like occasional warfare, perhaps only skirmishes, now and then as the occasion arose. I propose that we change the name of the page to: "Mughal-Maratha hostilities in the early 18th-century." Fowler&fowler«Talk» 13:43, 31 July 2023 (UTC)

Mughal–Maratha Wars → Deccan wars – The Maratha–Mughal Wars even extends up till the fall of the Maratha Empire in 1818, or even more than that. The conflicts between the Mughals and the Marathas between 1680 and 1707 is noted as "Deccan Wars" by historians.

Aurangzeb had multiple objectives for coming south with a huge force in 1681.These were:
By changing the name from Mughal-Maratha wars to Deccan wars, we have changed the scope of the article, and therefore there should be some mention of how Aurangzeb's forces finished off the longstanding sultanates.Thanks. Jonathansammy (talk) 20:08, 27 February 2024 (UTC)
