Page is a mess[edit]

dead link to a user's citations, what looks like original work thatis heavily biased composing most of the first paragraph and then repeated in the 'Background' paragraph. The whole article is broadly composed of unsourced entirely one-sided opinion. This seems like the topic has been hijacked by one destructive user. I will be happy to help updating the article but I think it requires a whole re-write, not simply finding some new sources to balance the article to better reflect the historical record. Anyone with such knowledge of the subject should give it attention.

Old talk[edit]

It is quite confusing when it is talking about Austro-Germans and Germans. I believe it should be Austro-Hungarians and Germans, or they should be called 'Axis'/'Central Powers' when the actual units involved is not known. Viralmonkey 19:55, 15 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The "Russian Empire" mentioned on the Battlebox was defacto dissolved with the abdication of Nicholas. I don't know if Kerensky made an official name for his regime before Lenin and Trotsky bludgeoned their way to power, but it was NOT Imperial Russia, and I suggust a different name. ELV

"The Provisional Government's "Order Number 1" tremendously weakened the power of officers, giving an overriding mandate to "soldier committees"." ... I thought Order #1 issued by the Petrograd Soviet, not the Provisional Government. --KatzMotel 01:01, 15 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fine, since nobody cares, I'll change it myself. Check out Order #1's details at: http://www.marxists.org/history/ussr/government/1917/03/01.htm

Does anyone know the name of the woman who assembled an army of ten thousand women to take on Central forces when Kerensky decided to launch his offensive? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.77.65.63 (talk) 01:15, 8 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Old style vs. new style dates[edit]

I don't know if there's any encyclopedia-wide policy on using Julian vs. Gregorian dates for the events of 1917, but it seems like February Revolution and October Revolution both use Old Style dates and then provide the New Style dates in parentheses. Leads to a bit of confusion in that some sources call this the June offensive based on the Old Style dates. Probably we should include both. SS451 (talk) 00:37, 8 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
