I suggest we change the name to either "Charles XII's war on August II" or "Charles XII invasion of Poland" as Sweden and Poland was not officially in war until 1705 I believe and by that time much of Poland was allied to Sweden. Imonoz (talk) 19:40, 19 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I think "Charles XII invasion of Poland" is essentially ok, but I think it needs a possessive: "Charles XII's invasion of Poland".Volunteer Marek (talk) 02:00, 5 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, that seems correct. Imonoz (talk) 18:27, 5 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Commonwealth forces[edit]

80,000 men is far too large number, Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth in this war did not have so many troops.Kcdlp (talk) 20:27, 19 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I think the author includes Saxon forces in that, either way, I'll change the numbers tomorrow or the day after to a specific number mentioned 1705. And it's far from this bias.. Imonoz (talk) 21:29, 19 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

B-class review[edit]
