[edit] Someone please correct the page name
The name was wrong throughout: it's Denis Vrain-Lucas! I changed it in the text but would someone with Wikipedia skills and privileges please rename this page to remove the non-existant name "Vrain Denis-Lucas" and replace it with the correct name? There is no need for any redirect -- the current name just does not make sense.
Needless to say, this did not reinforce my trust in Wikipedia in general. B-Meyer (talk) 13:49, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
The name is still wrong. It's Vrain-Denis Lucas. Lucas was his surname, Vrain-Denis his forename. The internet has all sorts of variations but 'Vrain-Denis Lucas' is the name in the book 'Telling Tales: A History of Literary Hoaxes' by Melissa Katsoulis, a Times and Sunday Telegraph Journalist. It's also the one in the Encyclopaedia Britannica. (15 April 2010) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.27.153.181 (talk) 23:01, 14 April 2010 (UTC)
I've tried correcting it but apparently I have to request a page move. Why didn't the person making the last set of changes actually cite a source or check their facts? It's a bit daft to swap someone's names around and create a new page based on one person's assertion. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.27.153.181 (talk) 23:15, 14 April 2010 (UTC)
I mean, come on - seriously. Someone is on hand to revert corrections to the wrong version at the drop of a hat, but you have to wait an indeterminate amount of time for them to be done properly?? It seems a bit backward. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.27.153.181 (talk) 23:24, 14 April 2010 (UTC)
