GAN and casualties[edit]

Gog the Mild, as discussed, I did a short copyedit run for GAN (added translations, one sentence background on Germany's stance during the war, nomenclature for Red/Red Guard/Red Finland/FSWR, minor stuff). But I started digging into the casualty databases more and the numbers might not have been calculated accurately (too low). I'll have to dig a bit deeper into it during the week.

I actually came up to 'at least 13 killed' on both sides after a couple of crosscheck and verification rounds. Could be higher, but with the primary sources here impossible to be sure (some KIAs are listed only as 'in the direction of' or based on large municipalities). I think it's good enough for GAN, no? Especially considering how small the battle was. Manelolo (talk) 17:14, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
