One of the best?
editThe article open with the following statement:
Alexander Adolf August Karl von Linsingen (1850–1935) was one of the best German field commanders during World War I.
However, this is not referenced, so who made this claim and based on what criteria?
Article needs sources
editThis article lacks any references, and the one external link is to a website which explicitly states that:
A word of caution however; this is by no means an academic website. It's authored as spare time permits and is geared towards a general rather than scholarly readership. Given this, it is not recommended that this site be used for academic reference purposes for school or university papers. This does not so much indicate a concerning lack of authorial confidence in the accuracy of site content as an acknowledgement that material on the site has not been submitted for formal peer review.
So please add extra sources.
