Talk:Treaty of Nemours

message: The article points a wikilink to Saint-Maur, which is a disambiguation with quite a few potential meanings. Which is the correct one? -Lilac Soul (Talk • Contribs) 16:45, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Which Saint-Maur?

message: I have removed here the assertion "It is said  that when the news of the treaty reached Henri, King of Navarre, one-half of his moustache turned white." The assertion, usually linked to St Bartholomew's Day Massacre instead, is examined and dismissed in Alexander A Navarini  and Ralph M Trüeb1,  "Why Henry III of Navarre’s Hair Probably did not Turn White Overnight".--Wetman (talk) 16:57, 21 January 2011 (UTC)

message: What does this mean?   "But a pastoral instruction of Noailles forbade his priests under pain of suspension to accept the Bull without his authorization; that was condemned by Rome."

message: "The number of appellants is said to have reached 1,800 to 2,000, pitifully small, for the approximately 1,500,000 livres ($300,000) distributed as bribes."  Taking the 1800 figure, that's $167 per person.  Is that a lot of money?  I wonder where the word "pitifully" fits in.  --Richardson mcphillips (talk) 00:49, 15 February 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Provost (civil)

message: Michel Le Peletier was the last "Prevot des Marchands" between 1784 and 1789. A silver octagonal coin, dated 1784, commemorates his position. Inscribed "Prevoste De M. L. Le Peletier Conseil D'etat"
According to the French Wikipeida article on "Prévôt des marchands de Paris", the correct name is Louis Le Peletier de Morfontaine, and the last prevost was Jacques de Flesselles. But it doesn't seem necessary to go into that level of detail here, so I simply deleted these lines. -- Margin1522 (talk) 15:49, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Concordat of Bologna

message: The following paragraph occurs in the article:
For many years, the kings of France would struggle to keep the Catholic Church in power, as it was filled with supporters of their policies. This would lead to persecution of non-Catholics under Francis I, Henry II, Francis II, and Charles IX.
Gross generalizations of a partisan sort, unsupported by any argument or reference. Fails to mention, let alone discuss, the rise of the Huguenots, the wars of religion, papal opposition to French expansion in Italy (It might even plausibly be said that the Catholic Church was filled with opponents of the King of France's policy), Spanish efforts (including invasion) to keep French dissenters out of Spanish territory and to prevent France from becoming Protestant.
The superficial remark quoted really should be heavily revised, with appropriate supporting argument and reference, or else deleted.

Talk:Musketeers of the Guard

message: The classic image has always been of the Three Musketeers wielding their rapiers, but I've started to wonder: Is that right?  Especially considering that some of the musketeers acted as cavalry, you'd think they'd have used some other kind of sword on the battlefield.  I asked this question somewhere else and was told that they probably used something more along the lines of a "walloon sword" on the battlefield, but that the officers in particular may have carried the more fashionable rapier off the battlefield (and perhaps the smallsword in later periods?).
So anyway, I just thought I'd say that a nice addition to the article (from anyone who has some good sources) would be something about the equipment/uniforms of the musketeers over the course of their history.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Macroidtoe (talk • contribs) 22:13, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Too many French words 

message: In the opening description, L'École Militaire is given a literal translation, i.e., "military school." A functional translation that is more in line with the role of L'École Militaire might be "war college." (Much like "carrefour" is not translated literally but is instead translated functionally as "crossroads.") Would others agree?

thread_title:  Buell today 

message: I've done some editing to make a few corrections, improvements, and also to remove the advertising from the Wyssmont corporation. Included is a photo I took of a Buell dryer, which I have released under creative commons. I've added a little background history to the dryer. The Buell played an important role in the development of the Cornish clay industry. Corrections include: the Buell was indirect heated, not direct. It was not similar to the Herreshoff kiln (only bears slight resemblance). It was not developed by English Clays Lovering Pochin, the technology already existed and was in use at other mines in the UK, ECLP merely adapted it to the clay industry. It's first use was in 1944, not 1945. I do have and will be adding some citations for all the information on the page, I just need to collate the information so it can be added. Over time my plan is to expand a series of articles on the Cornwall and Devon clay industry as the topic is quite extensive, covering more than 200 years of history, and involving what at the time was one of the largest corporations in the UK. ▫Bad▫harlick♠ 15:40, 23 August 2019 (UTC)

thread_title:  The name Fenton ? 

message: The statement, under "Works", that "The Revision Committee had largely accepted this text, even before its publication, as a basis for their translation of the New Testament."   This is a common misconception.  Bishop Charles John Ellicott, the chairman of the New Testament Committee of the Revised Version, in his book, Addresses on the Revised Version of the Holy Scriptures (1901, London, SPCK) pages 56-61,* goes into great detail to refute such a claim.  He says the Committee used a Textus Receptus edition as its basis (very probably Scrivener's Novum Testamentum textus Stephanici in one or another of its many editions), F.H.A. Scrivener would present to the Committee the verse and all the evidence about it, and then Hort or Westcott might add their comments based on their own research, and eventually the Committee would vote on the text of the verse.  Out of thousands of adjustments to the Textus Receptus, only 64 can be attributed to the Westcott & Hort edition without any precedents in any of three previous critical editions (and the 64 may be whittled down further if more pre-W&H critical editions are examined).  Please correct the sentence in the article.

message: The article claims Dr. Metropolis' name is based on Dr. Manhattan from the Watchmen comic; how is this any more justified than saying his name is based on Dr. Strange or Dr. Doom? And if we're sticking with Watchmen, why Dr. Manhattan and not Captain Metropolis? And on Johnny Rocket, how is he based on the Flash and not Johnny Quick? The names are more similar; Johnny Quick is also part of a multi-generational superhero family....  I haven't read Freedom City; I doubt whether Johnny Rocket uses a speed formula like Johnny Quick.  Perhaps he taps into the mystical Speed Force like the Flash does. Applejuicefool 20:28, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

:National regulations regulate which additives are need to be enumerated and which are "generally recognized as safe" to the point where they can be subsumed in "natural and artificial flavor". For example, in the USA, the artificial sweeteners in this can of Diet Mtn Dew Code Red soda need to be spelled out because aspartame "contains phenylalanine", which can harm people with phenylketonuria, yet it lists "natural flavor". Nor does the ingredient label need to state the amount of each ingredient, other than in descending order.

thread_title: Undated Information?

message: Greetings Wikipedians! I commend the contributors for their efforts. But sadly, this article lacks sufficient inline citations to reliable, verifiable sources: 
* The only inline citation pertains to the French convertible bond market, which in my view is in sufficient to support the statement made. We're talking about more than French convertibles here. 
* The Xiao paper and BarclayHedge article are not footnoted to any specific statement, so we can't tell what it's supposed to support. 
* The BarclayHedge article is anonymous and unsigned.
This violates Wikipedia's policy on verifiability (set forth here: Wikipedia policy on verifiability), which states: "Even if you are sure something is true, it must be verifiable before you can add it....The burden to demonstrate verifiability lies with the editor who adds or restores material, and it is satisfied by providing an inline citation to a reliable source that directly supports the contribution." 
I hope someone will step forward to remedy this problem. If that does not happen, the unsourced material is subject to being removed. My modest qualifications for this subject, such as they are, are set forth in my user profile. Cordially,BuzzWeiser196 (talk) 10:23, 29 April 2021 (UTC)

Talk:François Étienne de Kellermann

message: this is still a start class article, mainly because it is incomplete.  Kellerman is an important figure, and should have more coverage.  For example: what was his initial condition in the army, how did he rise through the ranks; what was the situation of the charge at Marengo?   The battle of Marengo as a whole changed how the campaign ended, yes, but how did the entire war hinge on this battle?  What is the background of it (the battle, the campaign, and the war)?  There could be greater clarity on his subsequent behavior, and its impact on his future career.  What was his relationship with Napoleon?  What is the importance of him being sick, and unable to participate in the Russian campaign?  How/why was he disgraced in the Restoration?  Under the issue of sources and bias, who says it is one of the most famous charges?  (Digby Smith does, but we need a citation).  This also needs the biography box. 
The myriad of sources available for this article should help you answer this.  Smith's Great Cavalry Charges would be one.   Let me know by leaving something on my talk page and I'll review it when you've put some more on it.  auntieruth (talk) 16:53, 29 September 2012 (UTC)
