Versailles in the Paris task force?

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)

Major expansion of Georges Cadoudal (Draft replacement)

Hello! I have prepared a major expansion for the existing stub Georges Cadoudal. The new version is currently in Draft:Georges Cadoudal (Expanded Biography).

It is a comprehensive biography translated and adapted from the French Wikipedia version, featuring high-quality academic sources (Desmarest, Cadoudal, Crétineau-Joly, etc.) and formatted with {{sfn}} citations.

Since the main article already exists, I would appreciate it if a reviewer or admin could check the draft and help move it over the current stub to avoid a cut-and-paste move.

Thank you for your help! FrancisBDT (talk) 23:08, 8 May 2026 (UTC)

Translation help wanted: Graphéine (Paris design studio)

Hi all,

The French Wikipedia has an article on fr:Graphéine, a French design studio.

I tried twice to create an English draft via AfC. Both were declined.

I would rather a neutral editor with a fresh eye look at the French sources and decide what an English page should look like, than continue with self-authored. I should say I work at Graphéine as cofounder. COI declared on user page (Mathias de lyon).

Anyone interested?

Proposed deletion of Forgive us our Sins

The article Forgive us our Sins has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Unreferenced for 11 years. No other language has a reliably sourced article from which to translate. A Google search found no reviews.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion based on established criteria.

Proposed deletion of Thomas Boissy

The article Thomas Boissy has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted after seven days unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article. The nominator also raised the following concern:

Only source is an old fundraising link, like a GoFundMe.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp/dated}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. Bearian (talk) 17:53, 5 June 2026 (UTC)
