Talk:French Second Republic

message: The EB copying is blatantly obvious here. Some of the text uses extremely poor language, EG. "Were they to remain faithful to their original principles, as Lamartine wished, and accept the decision of the country as supreme, or were they, as the revolutionaries under Ledru-Rollin claimed, to declare the republic of Paris superior to the universal suffrage of an insufficiently educated people?". 68.39.174.238 01:43, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

message: To Second French Republic (I am proposing this change for all French Republic articles.) 
Second French Republic is a more precise translation of Deuxième République Française. The name of the regime was the French Republic, and it was the second one.   Funnyhat 06:59, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Let's keep the discussion unfragmented, since we will either make all these name changes or none of them.  Could everyone please respond on Talk:French Fourth Republic? Phaunt 22:36, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

message: "General Charles Oudinot's entry into Rome provoked in Paris a foolish insurrection in favour of the Roman Republic, that of the Château d'Eau, which was crushed on June 13, 1849."
Discrepancy in the above as the entry into Rome by the troops of General Oudinot took place on 30 June 1849. Consequently, the 13 June Château d'Eau insurrection could not have been provoked by an event that took place seventeen days later.  Frania W. (talk) 16:24, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Discrepancy in dates & events 

message: As it stands, the History section makes little sense.
Why was the population of the faubourgs on its way to central Paris? Why were there barricades? Who was manning them? What were the protestors protesting about?
I guess the whole section has been copied from somewhere (EB?) without context. Maproom (talk) 23:24, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

message: I was under the impression that a portion of contemporary Algeria was administered as a part of France itself during the Second French Republic. Is this not true? A quick perusal of the Google results seems to tell me it was the case -- am I missing something here?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jackwc123 (talk • contribs) 15:32, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
thread_title:  Incorrect Map? 

message: So, the English Wikipedia has articles entitled First and Second French Empire.  Number, then nationality - which is proper according to the rules of adjectival order in English.
This is not a matter of empires vs. republics, as we also have articles on the First and Second Spanish Republics.
Yet we persist with this inaccurate and inconsistent "nationality, then number" rule for the French Republics. I'm going to assume that a non-native English speaker made the innocent mistake of writing "French First Republic" in the beginning ... but do not understand why we insist on perpetuating this mistake.
But then, we spent two decades displaying the wrong flag of Austria-Hungary, so I guess we're a stubborn bunch? 2600:1702:6D0:5160:D9B3:92CC:9790:303E (talk) 20:47, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
