Talk:Gilbert Romme

message: There are a few sentences in this article so confusing I can't understand them. I know almost nothing about Romme, so someone else should fix this:
* Is this narration in chronological order? I suspect not. I suspect it is scattershot. It's particularly hard to tell because of the mix of Gregorian and Republican dates, some without years.
* "During its mission to Normandy he went to jail." The reference of "its" is completely unclear. It's also unclear if this is saying he was jailed in Normandy, or he was jailed in Paris during someone else's mission to Normandy. And what was he jailed for? 
* He presented its republican calendar on September 17, 1793." Again, the reference of "its" is completely unclear. If it means "his", in what sense was the Republican calendar his? If not, in what sense did he "present" it?
* "During its mission for the navy in the southwest many Montagnards were guillotined (9 and 10 Thermidor)." Similarly. The reference of "its" is completely unclear. I'm assuming that this refers to the 9 Thermidor overthrow of Robespierre and the Montagne, but it's still very unclear.
* "On May 20, 1795 he supported an uprising that was crushed." What uprising? This needs a link.
* "He was guillotined in Paris on 29 Prairial, an III." Should also provide Gregorian date.

::It's also incorrect it seems. According to http://prairial.free.fr/calendrier/gilbertrommeeng.html, he committed suicide in his cell before he could be guillotined. squell 22:16, 31 August 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: There are varying accounts, it is also claimed that he stabbed himself on the steps of the courthouse. His date of death is determined as May 20, 1795, making him one of the last, if not the last internments in the Arrancis Cemetery. I will look into this. --JHvW (talk)  13:51, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

message: I've basically rewritten the article, I think this provides much more information and addresses all your points. Of course, there's always an abundance of French sources, which is not a language I'm at all comfortable with. I have left the fact-check template, for now. squell 23:15, 4 October 2005 (UTC)
