The article says that the Winged Hussars consisted "mostly of historical Grand Duchy of Lithuania armed forces and mercenaries". It might be good to have some reference confirming that. I'm not saying that this is not true, just may be not widely known outside Lithuania. -- Lysy talk 16:13, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
In the Salaspils article it has been told, that 9000 Swedish soldiers were buried, but in this page, that the casualties were 5000 killed Swedish soldiers. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.233.70.151 ( talk) 20:46, 9 November 2008 (UTC)
Based on the church books in Riga (the people of Riga paid for the burials) 8200 or 8300 people where buried after the battle. This also included some Poles so ~8000 would be the most likely /Adar — Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.243.175.7 ( talk) 15:26, 28 October 2011 (UTC)
Is Kircholm an inadvertent misspelling of Kirchholm or an established Polish name of the town? I'm not sure myself, Polish sources seem to use both spellings. Which one was the intention here?

"The Polish Crown declined to raise funds for defence and send troops, only making promises they never fulfilled. The army, led by the Great Hetman of Lithuania Jan Karol Chodkiewicz, was tired and starving; however, the soldiers admired their leader. He promised to pay army wages from his own fortune, resulting in an influx of recruits from Lithuania. The Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth army under Chodkiewicz was composed of roughly 1,000 infantry and 2,600 cavalry, but only five cannons. However, the Polish-Lithuanian forces were well-rested," 2604:2D80:5317:B00:18EB:B79:64F4:38D3 ( talk) 17:15, 20 August 2023 (UTC)
