– move per WP:IRS "Each source must be carefully weighed to judge whether it is reliable for the statement being made and is the best such source for that context." This is a cluster of stubs on French archetiers (violin bow makers) created in 2007 from website sources and older published sources in English, such as William Henley's Violinmakers 1959, which did not carry French accents. Best sources are in French: René Vannes 1951, 1972, 1985, Étienne Vatelot (1976), Jean François Raffin (2000). Modern auction catalogues do or don't reflect the accents, hence not reliable as WP:IRS, therefore deferring to the original French sources. In ictu oculi (talk) 07:56, 20 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

Support to include French diacritics in the names of French people. - Darwinek (talk) 18:45, 20 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
Support, per nominator; I favour using more accurate spelling, and it's difficult to build a WP:COMMONNAME case for version of the name with the diacritics stripped. bobrayner (talk) 12:24, 21 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
Support all, names should be spelled correctly. JIP | Talk 18:58, 23 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
Support, as Wikipedia aspires to be a scholarly source, and scholarly sources are more likely to include diacritics. — P.T. Aufrette (talk) 22:50, 23 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
Support – use correct spelling. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 13:39, 24 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
