128.etx.etx where did you get numbers for Polish army? in all historic books there is written that Polish army had 57.000 soldiers, period. I read one article by some Ukrainian, who added to that number taken from air number of 100.000 noble servants.

Second, why did you remove working links? This is wikipedia. The more links, the better.

Third, why you impose usage of Ukrainian names? We should stick to standard english usage and i guess you will find a lot more about battle of Beresteczko in English than Berestechko, unless i am mistaken.

fourth, maybe you would consider making account on wikipedia. THis is simple - just log in and mark "make new account". That way you will have your own talk page, you could sign your responses with simple three tildas (like this szopen <- i sign \~\~\~ ), which i guess could be useful in future, since you, i think, you are one of first Ukrainians on wikipedia, so i guess we will meet many times in discussions (which is good, because out of heat of discussion articles get more NPOV szopen

[edit] images

There are too many images in this article, the third one doesn't even really fit. I propose we remove the one at the bottom. Ostap 07:15, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

The images are rather relevant, I'd rather see the article expanded to accommodate them.--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 18:09, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
I guess that does sound better than just deleting. Ostap 18:59, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Question to Salaga

Can you give sources to the number of Polish troops that you provided ? Shiden (talk) 15:40, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Significant unsourced changes

Polish casualties went from 7000 to 500. This needs to be sourced. Ostap 22:08, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Now it's sourced. Regards Shiden (talk) 17:23, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

Thank you for the quick response. Ostap 02:35, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
