Lead

Suggest English translation in brackets for general-mayor?

Done

Early life...

In a month, he ...: seems unusual phrasing to me, suggest "The next month,..."

Done

English translation for "unter-ofitser"? (like there is for "ryadovoy")

Done

...he returned to Petrograd: should mention this is the new name for St Petersburg

Done

It would make for a short first section, but I would break 'World War I and Russian Civil War' out from the 'Early life' section

Split paragraph instead

Interwar period

English translation for "kombrig"

Done

Kulikov received the rank of major general...: English-language rank used here rather than the Russian general-mayor

Done

World War II

...forced to retreat to the Dnieper.: the phrase "forced to" is used earlier in this sentence, suggest changing this usage here

Done

Sources

Given history of nominator, happy to AGF on sourcing
No ISBN for the Bulkin ref? And is Penza the publisher or place of publication?

No ISBN

Sverdlov: English translation should be title case for consistency with other titles. Also, does it have an ISBN to go with the OCLC number?

No ISBN

Other stuff

One dupe link: Dnieper

Done

I'm uncertain that the image tag for [File:Куликов К.Е.jpg] is correct since the photograph would have been produced by the German authorities?

That's it for me. Cheers, Zawed (talk) 09:40, 27 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
