Hello there! Thanks for improving this article and showing initiate by nominating it for GA-status. I'll get started with the review right away and highlight any serious problems that may be found. Should there be only some minor flaws here and there, I'll correct them myself and notify you about my changes. I'll do my absolute best to review this article as fast and thorough I possible can. Kind regards and good luck! Jonas Vinther • (Click here to collect your price!) 01:42, 1 July 2015 (UTC)

• Okay, I'm unfortunately going to fail this GA-nomination. Firstly, the article is swamped with too many and too long quotes. WP:QUOTES says you should refrain from adding too many quotes in the same section and also keep them short. Having 12 long quotes in an article this small is overkill! Furthermore, there is unsourced sections throughout the article that needs citing to reliable sources. Lastly, as this is the English Wikipedia, remember to include literal translations of references like "Аносов Н. С. Утверждение Русского владычества на Кавказе // в 4 томах / ред. В. А. Потто — Тифлис: Тип. Я. И. Либермана, 1902" and be sure to also add retrieve dates. References simply stating "Военная энциклопедия" is not acceptable either. Please take from these comments and do your best to improve the article. Best of luck! Jonas Vinther • (Click here to collect your price!) 01:55, 1 July 2015 (UTC)
