  • Lead and infobox;
    • Link "Count" in "Count Pyotr Saltykov" done
  • Section 1;
    • Link Berlin done
    • Reword the complete last sentence as "Frederick tried to counter the Russian by sending an army corps, commanded by Friedrich August von Finck, and a second column commanded by Christoph II von Dohna", because the the King did not successfully counter the Russians, it was just an attempt done
    • Link Poznan done
    • frontier river Kwisa, or Queis -> frontier river Kwisa (German: Queis)
    • From there Count Leopold Joseph von Daun; just link the name, not along with the title done
    • north west toward -> north west towards toward is correct
    • commanded by András Hadik -> commanded by Count András Hadik
  • Section 2;
    • Link Empress Elizabeth done
    • but more realistic ones suggest; the word "realistic" is vague, you really don't know which figure is the real one. So better to reword deleting the word.done
    • Russians at down the next day; I think it is to be "dawn" not "down" done
    • Be consistent on using comma (,) after mentioning the date. In some case (On 20 July Saltykov had moved.....) and in some (On 23 July, Wedel ordered a reconnaissance....). Both are acceptable formats but consistency is the key. Fix a format for the article.
  • Section 3; all good
  • Section 4;
    • In the second assault, Manteufel was injured; In the second para of the section 3; you said that he was injured in the initial attack, was he injured again? Did he not abandon after the first injury? make it clearer
    • Can the position of General Moritz Franz Kasimir von Wobersnow be obtained? I mean what he commanded etc. I don't think so. I've not found it yet.
    • In the lead; it is mentioned that Russian losses were less than 5,000, what about "Russian losses at over 7,000" Frederick said losses at 7,000.
  • I suggest you to add the image of Pyotr Saltykov from his article done
  • 0% confidence, violation unlikely, well done.
