Could some of you perhaps try to reason with DW (who may also be 209.202.xxx.xxx) As far as I can tell (unless it's a major coincidence), he's brought in his friends Olivier and Suzanne to help ram through a bunch of French articles. Mast are pretty good, but both Zoe and I have asked that they try to stick to the format we've used for historical biography, with no response. I think a couple of others have also put comments for him and also have been ignored. There have also been questions about sources and images -- no response. It wouldn't matter if the articles were all neutral, but DW tends to put in phrases like "he had the morals of a tomcat" -- it's bad writing and without some kind of citation, it isn't appropriate (and I'd still re-write it). I've tried to talk to this person, but he refuses to talk to me because he thinks I'm a German revisionist -- his last shot to me was to demand my credentials after implying that I had made them up. I provided them and asked for his -- no response. I'll stop whining here, but I thought we were a community -- this guy seems to be a loose cannon with no respect for anybody else.
A tired Jules, who knows it's not her job to oversee all of history, but is apparently addicted.

A google search for "artistic temperament of a Renaissance prince and the morals of a tomcat" gets no hits, so if it copied might not be from the internet.
Good phrase to remember for the Mick Jagger article...

Dear tired Julie (you know do you, that Jules is masculine in french ?)
I will relieve you a tiny little bit

You'll notice both images are there. Poor job, he didnot even try to "steal" it from a non-english speaking site. Didnot show on french google, but was fourth hit on english yahoo.
Ain't that a very pretty cathedral? I saw it several times, during field trips, looking for champagne...
Cheers
