I will talk a look at this one in due course. Zawed (talk) 21:17, 22 October 2023 (UTC)

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)
