Partitions

... lost in the 1795 partitions of Poland....

Bleve there was one partition in 1795, the others having occurred in 1772 and 1793. Sca (talk) 15:35, 14 April 2014 (UTC)

Tukhachevsky's plan

Mikhail Tukhachevsky planned to encircle and surround Warsaw by crossing the Vistula River, near Włocławek, to the north and south of the city....

Not grammatically clear which place "the city" refers to; apparently it's Włocławek, which is NW of Warsaw. Changed to "that city, northwest of Warsaw." Sca (talk) 15:35, 14 April 2014 (UTC)

Battle maps

The two battle maps show Warsaw as a dark blob on the Vistula but don't label it as WARSAW, which is odd, particularly when all the smaller towns shown have name-labels. Sca (talk) 15:35, 14 April 2014 (UTC)

Who?

The Russian commander-in-chief lost contact...."

Assume we mean Tukhachevsky, not Trotsky, though the latter was overall commander of the Red Army, at least nominally. Sca (talk) 16:09, 14 April 2014 (UTC)
