Extended-confirmed-protected edit request on 6 October 2024

[edit]

The word "less" should be replaced with the word "fewer" in the section which compares the casualties at the Battle of Kosovo with those at the Battle of Agincourt. The current article refers to "10,000 less (soldiers)". Since any number of soldiers is a discreet number, one cannot refer to "an amount of soldiers" or "less soldiers". It is always a "number" of soldiers and "fewer" soldiers. This is English Grammar. 178.175.91.85 (talk) 05:28, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for spotting this! I've fixed the error. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 03:35, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Edit suggestion for the dating of the Battle of Kosovo

[edit]

While the date June 28 is often mentioned in Serbian tradition as it corresponds with the observance of Vidovdan (St. Vitus Day), it is not the accurate historical date of the battle itself when converted to the Gregorian calendar. Therefore, for historical accuracy, June 23, 1389 is the date you would refer to in the Gregorian context. Mikaron (talk) 03:25, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

What is the edit suggestion? Remsense ‥  03:30, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
My edit suggestion is to change the date in the infobox of the Battle of Kosovo from the traditional date of 15 June 1389 to the accurate Gregorian date of 23 June 1389, for the sake of historical and chronological accuracy. Mikaron (talk) 04:32, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
