LEAD
- Charles XI ( Swedish: Karl XI, 24 November 1655old style – 5 April 1697old style
- It's a bit difficult for a user like me to understand what old style means. Instead of old style, wh don't you directly put Julian Calender. Anyway, not a major problem since that is indicated by the footnote.
Charles XI was succeeded by the only son that reached adulthood, Charles XII, who made use of the well-trained army in battles throughout Europe.
Please copyedit this sentence.
I think the article satisfies good article criteria. The article will have to be more comprehensive for FA status. Good work for GA. I'll gladly promote this article. Thanks, Kensplanet ( talk) 06:53, 27 September 2008 (UTC)
