It can hardly be anyone else. I added a link to this person.BertSen 17:13, 24 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Not only that, but in the article itself, it says that the Prussian Casulties were 25,000 while on the little statistics window on the side it says 28,000... For Jena that is... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 204.29.160.175 (talk) 02:23, 21 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

Spelling edit

However the town is now spelled, the battle of Auerstadt is spelled several ways; I doubt this is English usage. Davout's title should have the French spelling, whatever it may be.

Similarly, Kalkreuth is frequently spelled without the c.

Data would be nice. Septentrionalis PMAnderson 18:32, 11 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Change in the wording edit

I changed the comment about Neys assault in the papagraph "The Battle of Jena", since I didn't think it was right to use the word "stupid" in an article. I have not changed the meaning of the sentence. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 139.164.160.138 (talk) 10:45, 23 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

Ensured that the article is within project scope, tagged for task forces, and assessed for class. --Rosiestep (talk) 04:27, 28 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

"The Prussian general" edit

In the section on Jena:

Recognizing this distressed salient, the Prussian general ordered a counter attack and enveloped Ney's forces,

What Prussian general? Hohenlohe, the commander of the whole army, or one of his subordinates? Somehow the section on Jena entirely fails to mention Hohenlohe, which is very weird. john k (talk) 01:20, 1 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

Discrepancy in Numbering of Forces edit

The figures given in opposing armies section conflict with the numbers in the Infobox... One specific example is Auerstedt: Are there 27,000 French troops (Infobox) at the battle or 47,000 - 20,000 + 27,000 (listed in Opposing Armies text)? There are also discrepancies between the Prussian troop numbers... Hopefully, someone can resolve this... Thanks... Stevenmitchell (talk) 07:39, 25 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
