Versailles in the Paris task force?
[edit]Hi there hello, so I just spontaneously joined the Paris task force and got into tagging "Paris-related" articles, but I wonder whether or not articles that are "Versailles-related" should be tagged and improved as well. I'd be happy if anybody'd give me the answer to that. Update: I'll just tag the "Versailles-related" ones, just tell me if I shouldn't :) - CarolingianCitizen (talk) 10:02, 7 August 2022 (CET)

ambiguity of hyphenated toponyms
[edit]Are French places like Vic-sur-Aisne or Vic-en-Bigorre recognizable as just Vic? Would appreciate some help from people in the know, at Talk:Vic#French places. TIA. --Joy (talk) 14:22, 19 June 2024 (UTC)

Regionalist political parties
[edit]Various articles for constituencies in the 2024 French legislative election (see this list) have links to regionalist parties. These all link to Regionalism (a disambiguation page). I am trying to work out whether they should link to Regionalism (politics) or whether there are specific party links these should point to?
Anyhelp with sorting these would be appreciated.— Rod talk 17:15, 25 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Rodw: I can answer this one – ideally they should be linking to political parties (and using the appropriate party color parameter) where possible, but tracking that information down can be extremely tedious because it's not officially documented by the Ministry of Interior, the authoritative source for election results, which instead groups candidates under "nuances" (categories which correspond more to ideology than party, in the case of for candidates not belonging to a major party/alliance) including regionalists. It's easiest to defer to the French-language version of those articles and copy any citations from there as necessary. 73.169.176.209 (talk) 01:21, 2 July 2024 (UTC)

[edit]2024 French legislative election discussions
[edit]Bumping this talk page on people's watchlists to bring a couple discussions regarding the 2024 French legislative election to other editors' attention. Given that we're in the period between the two rounds before this article could be potentially featured on WP:ITN/C within a week or so depending on the results, it would be great to get other views from editors in this space in order to reach a consensus on either or both of them before then. The two sections in question are here:
- Talk:2024 French legislative election#Leader of Ensemble in the infobox
- Talk:2024 French legislative election#Usefulness of triangulaires/quadrangulaires table

Lille and History of Lille
[edit]We've just had History of Lille, a translation from fr-wiki, come through AfC. The article on Lille itself already had a fair bit of history, but the newly translated article was too extensive to add to the main article on the city. If anyone here is looking for a mid-sized job to do, it would be helpful to consolidate the two so that we have the detailed history on History of Lille and a summary of it on the Lille article itself. -- asilvering (talk) 13:32, 5 July 2024 (UTC)

Photography for René Goscinny Statue
[edit]Hello. I'm sorry, idk if I can ask it here. But I have recently written article about the René Goscinny Statue in Paris. But there no photo of it on Commons. And I was wondering if maybe it would be possible for someone who lives in Paris to maybe take a few photos of it. It is located at rue de Boulainvilliers 54 in 16th arrondissement. Maybe one from the front (something like this + the pedestal) and kaybe a few photos with closeups on the little characters sitting on the monument, and some close ups to the pedestal. Thank you in advance, and sorry if it is not the right place to ask.Artemis Andromeda (talk) 22:10, 30 July 2024 (UTC)

Name help
[edit]Not sure where to ask, but this seemed reasonable. I'm looking at adding to the Wikipedia article on the Honor society Alpha Omega Alpha. I have a source that lists honorary members and information about them. The first Alphabetically is listed as Thierry Alajouanine, there is a wikipedia article on Théophile Alajouanine which seems to match. Is Thierry a nickname/shortened form?Naraht (talk) 13:28, 7 August 2024 (UTC)

Women in Green's October 2024 edit-a-thon
[edit]Hello WikiProject France:
WikiProject Women in Green is holding a month-long Good Article Edit-a-thon event in October 2024!
Running from October 1 to 31, 2024, WikiProject Women in Green (WiG) is hosting a Good Article (GA) edit-a-thon event with the theme Around the World in 31 Days! All experience levels welcome. Never worked on a GA project before? We'll teach you how to get started. Or maybe you're an old hand at GAs – we'd love to have you involved! Participants are invited to work on nominating and/or reviewing GA submissions related to women and women's works (e.g., books, films) during the event period. We hope to collectively cover article subjects from at least 31 countries (or broader international articles) by month's end. GA resources and one-on-one support will be provided by experienced GA editors, and participants will have the opportunity to earn a special WiG barnstar for their efforts.
We hope to see you there!
Grnrchst (talk) 11:24, 10 September 2024 (UTC)Evident need to simplify the page names of certain French government ministries
[edit]Hello WikiProject France!
Per title, I feel there's a need to simplify the page names of certain French government ministries, namely Ministry of Ecological Transition (France), Minister of Labour, Employment and Economic Inclusion (France), and Minister for Gender Equality, Diversity and Equal Opportunities, though there may be others.
The titles are just too long and sometimes confusing, especially so when they don't exactly match up with their current iterations. It would be much better to simplify Ministry of Ecological Transition to just Ministry of Ecology, as the ministry is commonly known as such anyway. Especially considering this is done for other ministries such as Ministry of Economy and Finance (France) and Ministry of Agriculture (France). Sisuvia (talk) 10:26, 22 September 2024 (UTC)

Some suspicious edits have happened recently on this article and it needs someone with some knowledge of the French revolution (at least, enough knowledge to understand the complexity of all the references) to review them.
- References removed, but the reference did not seem, to me, to correctly back up what was being stated anyway.
- The content that was removed seemed significant enough that a new reference should have been found instead, and would have been rather trivial to find.
Please review and apply any edits/reversions directly you see fit. Thank you! Komonzia (talk) 04:34, 7 October 2024 (UTC)
I just created an article for French designer Vincent Darré. Any help with expansion would be appreciated! Thriley (talk) 16:41, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
Antonio Martinelli
[edit]Perhaps someone from this WikiProject could take a look at Antonio Martinelli and assess it since being a photographer seems to be the primary claim being made for Martinelli's Wikipedia notability. The article apparently is a translation of fr:Antonio Martinelli, but it's creator/translator/primary contributor also might be a relative of Martinelli. The article has a bit of a promotional feel to it, but that could be due to it being a translation, and some of the sources appear to be weak. The article's formatting/layout also seems to be mimicking the French Wikipedia version word for word, which might not be the best way to do things here on English Wikipedia. Maybe all that's need is someone more familiar with BLP articles about photographers to look it over and clean up whatever needs to be cleaned up and trim whatever needs to be trimmed. For reference, the French Wikipedia article was created by the same person and it too never appears to have been assessed for Wikipedia notability. -- Marchjuly (talk) 11:51, 15 October 2024 (UTC)
