Unfortunately Wikipedia requires more than maybes and rumours. This has a total lack of the coverage required by WP:GNG. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Nuttah (talk • contribs) 18:34, 14 July 2010

- Comment As even the article states the individual is unknown outside of France, I would hope a French-reading Wikipedian could look at these sources: [1] and [2] Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 05:44, 15 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- From Google Books, the first two returns are histories of the voyages of Nicolas Baudin to Australia in 1800-1802 - Guillame Retz was a crewman on his ship; the third is a history of 14th and 15th century Brittany. The fourth and fifth are books by authors who died in 1637 and 1679 respectively. As for the Google returns, the only remotely reliable sources are cycling results for 'BONVALET GUILLAUME, RETZ BIKE CLUB' Nuttah (talk) 03:21, 21 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Strong delete Gilles de Rais (or Retz) was a serial killer of children who was the inspiration for the Bluebeard (Barbe Bleu) story. I suspect this is a hoax, as there are no pre-2010 internet hits for the name, and most references seem to be allusions to the museum on cellphone text sites. The two illustrations for the article (one of which appears to be a picture upon which someone has ejaculated) are claimed by the uploader to be original works, and some of the pictures in the collages displayed at the museum site look suspiciously modern. If this is not a hoax, then it can be relisted once more reliable sources are added, but I strongly suspect that won't be the case. Tom Reedy (talk) 04:14, 21 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
