From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article seems to have grown beyond 'start' level, I and other editors would appreciate any suggestions you may have. I think it may be approaching GA-level of quality, unfortunatly there is a controversy surrounding its name (see also mine and Kirill's discussion here). If you could help us reach a consensus on a better name, this would be much appreciated. PS. I added extra info to talk, will be adding it to article soon.-- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk  19:19, 4 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

I've already commented on the name, so I'll move directly on to the actual content:

  • The map shows "German and Lithuanian detachements" near the action, but these don't appear to be mentioned in the text. What were they? The prelude section should open with a description of the strategic situation before getting into the action, I think; otherwise, it's a bit difficult to understand where things are starting from.
  • Month+day dates need to be linked.
  • In general, footnotes are neater when placed at the ends of sentences, not at random points in them. If there's confusion over what exactly is being cited, it's probably better to just indicate it explicitly in the footnote.
  • The lead ought to be extended to two/three paragraphs.
  • The "See also" section should be eliminated.
  • {{en icon}} really isn't necessary; this is the English Wikipedia, so sources are assumed to be in English unless explicitly indicated otherwise.
