Tone[edit]

Some of the tone of this article is not really suitable to Wikipedia, especially with the "question marks" section. —innotata 16:32, 15 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I don't disagree, but I have simply translated it from German Wikipedia. Please feel free to improve the article from the original sources. --Bermicourt (talk) 20:34, 15 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I have changed the approach and tone of the "Uncertainties" section without losing the points being made i.e. highlighting the key unknowns about the battle. --Bermicourt (talk) 06:47, 26 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Geocoordinates[edit]

Not at Fishguard.--Grahame (talk) 01:28, 21 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Now centred on town of Soltau but could do with centering on the battlefield. Unfortunately, don't know exactly where that is Monstrelet (talk) 06:54, 21 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
