message: This is my pet bugbear, but the paragraphing in the biography section needs work, preferably by the editors who've written the existing material and therefore are most comfortable with the section. At the moment, they're all one sentence paras, even when there's an obvious thematic thread (i.e. Dreyfus etc), and this makes things confusing. Sound reasonable?

message: How do you pronounce Emile? Is it "EH-MEEL"? Or "Emily"? Is "Emily" a mispronunciation of the French, but an acceptable Americanized pronunciation?
: It's "Ay-meel". "Emily" is flat wrong no matter what country you're in. 84.92.8.221 14:43, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

message: I do not speak French so there is no way for me to recognize any of Émile Zola's famous works.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 144.92.16.249 (talk) 20:00, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

message: Is a Émile Zola came to the prison in practice?
The article says that he escaped to England. And write here (1898) that he entered the jail. Who is right?

message: This section is clearly subjectively written, without citations.  Wikipedia is not the place for editorializing or independent literary criticism.  I actually find what you've written interesting, but this just isn't the forum for it.  Ironically, maybe you could simply post what you wrote to a blog and then cite to that ;).  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.20.227.156 (talk) 06:49, 22 December 2010 (UTC)

message: This work becomes an opera by Alfred Bruneau and a film starring Fernandel.
But it is not listed.
I presume, therefore, that it is a conte.
I am not familiar with Zola's work in detail.
Are a number of his "tales" of major consequence? Should the article be noting these by name? If they don't justify independent articles, should these tales be discussed in some detail here?

thread_title:  Zola's ''Naïs Micoulin'' 

message: I'm sure there are too many adaptations to list, but particularly for english-language wikipedia the major multipart series of adaptations on BBC Radio 4 are surely worth mentioning? It's a serialisation of all 20 Rougon-Macquart novels in coherent form. (and it's excellent).

message: There's nothing in this bio about his role in popularizing and defending the Impressionists.  I'm currently working on content about this for the article on the Batignolles group, but I was hoping to find more already here.  As it turns out, according to Duret (1910), Zola was instrumental in bringing Manet and other painters together, many of whom would later become known as Impressionists. Hemmings (1958) concurs, referring to Zola's "Thursday evening gatherings" circa 1866 as a precursor to the later Batignolles group, out of which Impressionism would emerge.
