Likely a WP:HOAX, the sole source does not mention this. See discussion at Special:PermanentLink/1087149739#Did_the_Battle_of_Karasounk_ever_take_place? RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 20:32, 10 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: I'm not convinced it's a pure hoax, but I don't think this article title should exist. The battle described in the text, which *might* have happened as described, cannot be verified to have happened either in the year given (863) or at the place in the article title Karasounk (or any other place). Therefore, the article should be deleted and relevant information about the battle incorporated to other, better-titled pages. —Ganesha811 (talk) 21:06, 10 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Same as above, this article is either a hoax or a complete distortion of the facts and thus there is nothing to salvage here. Similar vibes as Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Battle of Kiawe Bridge, another old sockpuppet creation. -Indy beetle (talk) 22:42, 10 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete regardless of whether it's a hoax, the article content can't be verified. (t · c) buidhe 21:12, 11 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
