Didn't the Polish Army also participate in the fights? [[User:Halibutt|Halibutt]] 00:15, Aug 25, 2004 (UTC)
- Which fights? Andris 06:17, Aug 25, 2004 (UTC)

- Latvian red riflemen were also a part of the attempt to establish Soviet rule in Latvia in 1919, where they were defeated by the army of newly established Republic of Latvia which included some of the riflemen who did not side with bolsheviks. - the Polish Army fought side by side with the Latvians in, for instance, liberation of Daugavpils.

- Yes, that's correct. I added a mention of Polish Army. I should also write a separate article with all the details on Latvian Independence War (which was actually between 3 parties: Latvians and allies (Poland, Estonia, British navy), Baltic-Germans and bolsheviks/red riflemen) sometime.

- I started to work on the Polish-Bolshevik War and I thought we might cooperate, especially that one of the battles to be included is the battle for Daugavpils (January 3, 1920). Could you help? See Talk:Polish-Soviet_War#Featured-class_article for details. [[User:Halibutt|Halibutt]] 09:18, Nov 6, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Mapmaker needs help!
I need help! I'm currently preparing a set of maps for the Polish-Bolshevik War of 1919-1920, with the sites of the major battles and the frontlines marked. I would also like to include not only the frontlines of the Russo-Polish war, but also the frontlines of the Latvian and Estonian wars with Bolshevist Russia. Could anyone post a link to a map or description of the frontlines?
The maps I'm working on:
- March 1919
- December 1919
- June 1920
- August 1920

[edit] Relevance?
I removed the following text from the article as not being particularly relevant for the topic of the article:
- In 1933, seven Communist members of the Latvian parliament were arrested. During the period of Kārlis Ulmanis' dictatorship in 1934-1940, many Communist and Socialist leaders (including most Socialist members of the Parliament) were arrested, and some were among the 400 high-profile citizens who were imprisoned in a concentration camp near the city of Liepaja.
Perhaps these details would fit better in Communist Party of Latvia? — Zalktis 06:45, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Cleanup
This very interesting article needs cleanup - needs "the" in many places, etc. --Ludvikus 14:10, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
