Talk:Henri Frenay

message: This article contains no citations. 
I changed the sentence that began "At first the conservative, Catholic and patriotic Frenay supported the Vichy Regime but was soon disillusioned by the Nazi tendency of the Pétain regime,..." to remove the words "conservative, Catholic and patriotic." Frenay's memoir states that the area he grew up in was conservative, and that his family was conservative, but in many passages in the memoir Frenay intentionally distinguishes himself from the conservative attitude of his family and region. Specifically, he mentions his pre-war friendships with liberals, his non-conservative opinions that clashed with those of his family and region, and his mother's suspicions (based on his pre-war leanings and activities) that he had become involved in a group of communists, when in fact he was involved in a covert anti-Nazi resistance group that did not subscribe to any more specific political ideology. Frenay in couple of places specifically states his disgust with the pre-war status quo in France, and his idealistic dream of one-world government or cooperation (that is, and especially at the time of WWII was, more characteristic of communist ideologies than conservative, nationalistic or fascist ones). 
Besides inaccuracies vis-a-vis Henri Frenay and his own characterization of himself in his memoir, the way the sentence was written before I changed it made it sound as if being conservative, Catholic or patriotic behooved one to support Vichy and Petain. This is too much of an editorializing tone for Wikipedia. In fact, it's well-known that critics of Vichy and Petain-- including the earliest critics-- came from a variety of ideologies, including conservative, patriotic, and Catholic ones.

Talk:Élise Rivet

message: Why has she not been considered for Canonization in the Catholic Church?  Maximilian Kolbe was elevated to Sainthood for the same kind of act.  His elevation was not without controversy.  I see nothing in Élise Rivet's entry of a controversial nature.  At the time of his consideration, it was felt that Kolbe was not killed out of hatred of the faith, but as the result of his act of Christian charity toward another man.  Subsequently, Pope John Paul II pointed out that the Nazis' systematic hatred of whole categories of humanity was inherently also a hatred of religious (Christian) faith; he said that Kolbe's death equated to earlier examples of religious martyrdom.

message: I recently added the band Die Symphony to the list of notable local St. Louis bands that had performed at Pointfest. Walter Görlitz had reverted that update but I’m not sure why. Die Symphony performed at both Pointfest 11 and 12 on the main stages. They are listed as such on the page’s pointfest lineups for confirmation. Die Symphony had a top 10 alternative radio hit throughout the US and on MTV. Just curious why the update was reverted? If you do a Google search on them it will confirm it all.

Talk:René Hardy

message: I just read an account of the two trials against Hardy, written in the 50ies by the Norwegian journalist and writer Axel Kielland. He was present at the second and last trial against Hardy at Palais de Justice in Paris in 1950. What he writes is in diametrical opposition to what is written in this Wikipedia article. A couple of examples: this Wikipedia article gives the impression that Hardy was arrested along with the other resistance leaders at their secret meeting, but not handcuffed like the rest of them, and then easily escaped shortly after. Kielland on the other hand, quoting directly from the court proceedings, writes that when Gestapo stormed the meeting, Hardy immediately jumped out of the window he was sitting next to and escaped into the forest. The German officer and witness Steingritt (Bastien’s true lover, according to this Wikipedia account) verified this version in court, quoting that yes, it was truly an amazing escape, but even stranger things had also happened during the long war. 
Another example: it is portrayed as fact that Hardy collaborated with Gestapo, partly through the accounts of the Gestapo collaborator (and Hardy’s false lover) Lydie Bastien. Kielland on the other hand recounts that Bastien’s testimony and trustworthiness was totally shredded in court, and that one of the chief witnesses for the prosecution was the chief of Gestapo for Lyon, named Barbier, who claimed that Hardy truly was a traitor of the French Resistance.  But as Hardy’s lawyer Maurice Garçon pointed out: Barbier and Gestapo had been searching intensely for ‘Colonel Didot’ (Hardy’s cover name in the Resistance during the war) for ages, as he was responsible for countless sabotages of the German war machine in France. Barbier was also responsible for some of the worst atrocities against French civilians and members of the Resistance during the war. So why on earth trust such a man, and trust his testimony?! 212.71.89.20 (talk) 14:56, 5 February 2022 (UTC)

message: The article starts off "In chemistry, periodic trends are the tendencies of certain elemental characteristics to increase or decrease as one progresses along a row or column of the periodic table of elements."  This seems completely wrong-headed to me, and completely misunderstands both the common and scientific meanings of the word "periodic", and why the "periodic" table is so called! "Periodic" things are those which repeat themselves at regular intervals. The "periodic trends" which Mendelev famously noted in the elements (when arranged in increasing atomic weight) were recurring similar properties. It was on the basis of these recurrances that Mendelev decided where to break the table into a new column or row. In other words, the "definition" in the article is ass backwards. --feline1 (talk) 11:56, 17 February 2014 (UTC)
