i wonder how come russian casualties 50% higher in english article than in russian or any other language.
Source is the same everywhere.
It is not first time i see in english wikipedia some wierd size of russian army and/or casualties on russian side

btw siege of Sevastopol is correct http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siege_of_Sevastopol_(1854%E2%80%931855)
Russia had 15k regular troops on caucasus frontline plus some local militia. Despite being greatly outnumbered russian soldiers were beating turks very hard with little casualties, like always... There were not any somewhat large clashes outside Caucasus and Crimea
