Fails GNG, Unneeded DUP/CFORK of Lankaran operation#Overthrow of Bolshevik power.
- There was certainly fighting in the area and the Russian civil war impacted all of Azerbaijan, including Lankaran, but I cannot find anything that is called the Battle of Lankaran.
- Author also created Lankaran operation, I think this is an unneeded CFORK of this article, as it stands the main section of the article is a duplicate of Lankaran operation#Overthrow of Bolshevik power with the background and conclusion points covered in other areas of the article.
- Article is based on a single source,
- Süleymanov, Mehman (1998). Azərbacan Ordusu (1918–1920). Baku: hərbi Nəşriyyatı.
- I can find no information on the publisher other than it is the ""Military Publishing House" of the Ministry of Defense and is described as "one of the ideological branches"."[1]. Based on this I think this fails WP:IS.
Lankaran operation has significant problems of its own, and is based on the single source, but it summarizes the period in Lankaran operation#Overthrow of Bolshevik power. No objection to a redirect to this target. The content is already in this target and there is nothing else for a merge. // Timothy :: talk 04:02, 25 January 2024 (UTC)
