This article is in good shape. I have a few comments:
in the lead, it mentions Protestant Germany, but not Catholic?
Er, well, Austria was and remained the preeminent Catholic German power, but that wasn't a result of these wars (that was the case both before and after); what changed was the rise of Prussia. Do you think it should be spelled out that Austria remained the leading Catholic power in Germany? -

in the first para of Context and causes, they were not yet belligerents, perhaps "importance to both parties."?
How about "multiple parties", since what I'm trying to get at is that it, besides Austria and Prussia, Silesia was also geostrategically important to Saxony, Poland, Russia, et al.? -

in Third Silesian War suggest "Battle of Gross-Jägersdorf on 30 August", "Battle of Domstadtl on 30 June", "Battle of Hochkirch on 14 October", "Battle of Torgau on 3 November" and "Treaty of Hubertusburg in February 1763"
also suggest "Prussia's control of Saxony for thea time"
there is a citation to Duffy (1974) but no corresponding Source, there is a script available that automatically identifies such harv errors, which I can talk you through if you like.
there is a bit of mixing of harv citations and full citations. Not necessary for GA, but I suggest you move the full citations for Horn, Black (1990) and Bled to the Sources and just use harv citations.
This article is well-written, verifiable using reliable sources, covers the subject well, is neutral and stable, contains no plagiarism, and is illustrated by appropriately licensed images with appropriate captions. Passing. This is a very nice body of work on the Silesian Wars, you might like to put up the four articles as a
Good Topic.
