This article may need to be rewritten

[edit]

The battle description is quite a mess; it suggests that Mörner broke through the defensive lines at Rakkestad, but was then forced to also break through the defenses at Toverud (where his force was captured). This doesn't make any sense: First off, why would he have to break through at two points; secondly, it was actually another Swedish force which broke through at Rakkestad, led by Axel Gabriel Oxenstierna, and it was not part of the force, led by Mörner, which was later captured at Toverud; thirdly, is this a battle about Toverud, or Toverud AND Rakkestad? The battle description suggests that it's about both places, but the article name suggests it's merely about Toverud; in the infobox, it says the Norwegians had 2,200, this is their operational strength against all Swedish forces, not what they had at Toverud. The Swedish strength in the infobox, however, is roughly what they had only at Toverud (if you add the force which came to help Mörner escape but was beaten back earlier that day). This is not a good Wikipedia article—with such enormous errors and inaccuracies. Imonoz (talk) 02:31, 27 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
