I am nominating this article for A-Class review because I overhauled it during the past month and believe it meets all criteria. There might be some copyediting/prose issues, but i'm willing to resolve them during the review. Eurocopter (talk) 21:35, 17 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Is there a specific reason why the hyphen is necessary? Couldn't it be replaced as "in Polish Maczuga, because the ridge..." w/o the hyphen? Would correct myself, unless there's a legit reason it's used.
Hm, not really, as it isn't the same thing (that's why an "Generalfeldmarschall" article exists). --Eurocopter (talk) 13:21, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Can Generalfeldmarschall just be translated as "field marshall"? (Just curious, am not familiar with these matters)

  • Decide if German ranks are italicized. It is in the lead, but not in the Background section. Done
  • You also switch between German ranks and the translations, it should be standardized one way or another. Done
  • Can some images be moved to the left? Everything is on the right. Done --Eurocopter (talk) 13:45, 4 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
These are minor issues and should be easy for you to fix. Otherwise, very interesting article, good luck at FAC. – Joe Nutter 01:34, 4 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • This: "known as The Mace (in Polish Maczuga, because the ridge on this hill resembled a caveman's mace with two bulbous heads)" is not a proper inline citation. Done
  • You have different date formats, sometimes 9 August and sometimes August 9. Done
  • The article makes it look a little like the Polish troops were fighting in a vacuum. Who and where were the Allied supporting troops on their flanks who were also endeavoring to close the pocket? I'm aware that the Falaise Pocket article contains this info, but a little bit of context about it needs to be in this article. You give some context in the Aftermath, but some earlier would be helpful. Otherwise, I think this is close to being ready. Cla68 (talk) 07:55, 10 March 2009 (UTC)  Done (added a bit of info regarding Canadians in Chambois, but i'm not sure what to add anymore).
