Unreliable sources

"Even before the Red Army was formed, Lavr Kornilov promised, "the greater the terror, the greater our victories." He vowed that the goals of his forces must be fulfilled even if it was needed "to setfire to half the country and shed the blood of three-fourths of all Russians."[2] In just the village Lezhanka of the Don region, bands of Kornilov's officers killed more than 500 people.[3]"

Sources for these quotes are 2 different "marxist historians", meaning they are most likely bullshit. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.148.146.33 (talk) 23:00, 10 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Multiple sources are from self-acclaimed Marxist historians including Arno Mayer. Considering the quotes from these references are used to present a negative image of Kornilov these should be removed and new sources found. BearKnight08 (talk) 20:38, 16 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Kornilov is a Cossack, not a Kazakh. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.227.213.117 (talk) 20:00, 6 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
