The article is unreferenced. Although this is not a sufficient reason for deletion, the problem is that "Battle of Kungrat" returns zero hits on Google (including Books). In fact, there's no Wikipedia on either Kungrat, Oydustbiy (first belligerent) or Muhammad Yakub (second belligerent). Pichpich (talk) 16:56, 27 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete I found nothing to support notability. There were zero hits on Google Scholar and Google Books. I was able to confirm only that there is a Kungrat in Uzbekistan but not the occurrence of a battle there on the date specified. I did not see evidence of an alternate spelling, but absent evidence of one turning up additional information, fails Wikipedia:GNG and Wikipedia:Notability (events).

- Delete Agree, I also failed to find anything that would support this article or that the battle even happened. --hroest 18:19, 27 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete I’m fed up with made-up or wildly exaggerated Indian battles. Mccapra (talk) 19:34, 27 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete I've found the original source (or a clone of the original source) for the article here: [1]. Assuming the website is legitimate (whether or not it can be counted on to accurately represent specific facts), its existence suggests that the event is both real and notable, though it's possible this all ultimately comes from a citogenesis incident on Russian Wikipedia. I've tried a few different options for romanizing Ойдустбий and gotten nowhere. So: sources may exist, but there's currently no sign of any good ones - delete. -- asilvering (talk) 21:55, 27 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment there is a single hit for Ойдустбий in Google Scholar that appears to at least mention Oydustbiy, but it’s discussing a campaign that started in 1809, so I don’t know if it’s the same campaign. https://elibrary.ru/item.asp?id=35163804 That was literally the only source I found and I can’t access the full text.
