[edit] Second Battle of Kharkov

This article failed its FAC quite recently, because of several (quite valid) remarks on its lack of inline citations, the fact it used only two sources, and so on (see its FAC page) for details. As such a beautyful article is a must-have for our collection, I messed with it a bit:

  • The article now uses both Western (Beevor and Glants) and Russian (Zhukov, Vasilevsky and Moskalenko) sources.
  • Inline citations were added (with ref tags and all)
  • A map of the offensive was drawn (it's grafikm-style but I think it should do).
  • The lead was expanded per WP:LEAD
  • The conclusion section was dealt with.

Please voice out your opinions, as I think it is FA material! -- Grafikm (AutoGRAF) 20:52, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Kirill Lokshin

Oh yes, it is FA material! ;-)

A few minor points, though:

  • Per the MoS, section headings generally shouldn't begin with "The".
  • A few more inline citations might help, particularly in the "Soviet leadership and manpower" section.
  • The "Bibliography" section should be named "References".

Overall, though, this is another great article! Kirill Lokshin 16:38, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

Thanks Kirill. I fixed the most obvious points but for more inline citations, time is kinda short as i'm quite busy these days. So just keep the review open atm, please, I'll get back to it shortly. :))
Citations fixed. -- Grafikm (AutoGRAF) 20:30, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
