A fact from Battle of Lihula appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know? column on December 20, 2006.

[edit] Over 300 years

In the current version of the article — "Battle of Lihula marked the end to the Swedish expansion in Estonia for more than 300 years" — seems to imply that after the Battle, it was over 300 years until Sweden next tried to expand into Estonia. However, the context seems to imply that Sweden had been expanding into Estonia for many years and this stopped that expansion. A re-write would help. — ERcheck (talk) 17:56, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

Actually, Estonia had been under Swedish rule from time to time, since the 7th century. That's a long story and goes beyond the scope of the article. Rounded the wording, though. --Drieakko 20:44, 20 December 2006 (UTC)
