Violates #4 Neutral language. Examples just in the introduction:
"His family was considerably wealthy..."
"...and donating considerable time and money to charities."
"...a governmental attempt to exterminate the movement, Baha'u'llah narrowly escaped dealth..."
"...attracted the ire of Iranian authorities"
There are other parts of the article as well:
"...the execution of the Bab were tumultuous for Babis."
"...seeking to curry favor with the king..."
"...encourage and revive flagging spirits..."
"...imprison both Baba'u'llah and Mirza Yahya in far-flung outposts..."
The entire article reads like it was copied from a bibliography. The "good article" status was given in 2012 and obviously many edits have been made since then that I think makes this not be a "good article" anymore. There is a talk discussion about it too.

- None of this seems explicitly non-neutral so long as those statements can be verified. That being said, there is a significant amount of uncited text that should be verified before GA status is kept. Iazyges Consermonor Opus meum 01:45, 15 March 2023 (UTC)
