WPMILHIST Assessment

edit

A very nice article, but the introduction could use some work, I think. Firstly, as it stands, it emphasizes that he was born at Paris (which should probably read in Paris), and mentions his lineage and relations, not his significance. The very bottom of the article seems to indicate he was head of state just before Napoleon. Isn't this significant? Shouldn't his position in the Council of Ministers, or his role in Napoleon's rise to power, be mentioned over his identity as "a general, son of so-and-so, brother of so-and-so"?

Moustache, no beard

edit

Is it true that he was the first General to be photographed with a moustache, but no beard (in the Prince Albert style), thus establishing this less-usual fashion, which became the standard way of separating military from naval officers?(86.140.6.209 (talk) 23:36, 9 April 2009 (UTC))Reply

The main copyrighted website (https://www.ohio.edu/chastain/ac/cavaig.htm) took its content from an academic work (The French Republic under Cavaignac) that is already being directly used here as reference. I have replaced the citations between these two, as the information previously taken from the copyrighted source is the same as in (and was in turn sourced from) said work. Another infringing citation to a different URL of the same website (https://www.ohio.edu/chastain/dh/frpres.htm), which hasn't been tagged as copyvio and was cited only once, is now redirected to a work from a different author, containing the same information, and no longer infringing copyright.

Like I explained on your talk page, the copyright text is still present in the article. Removing the citation does not remove the copyright violation. The matching text needs to be re-written in your own words or removed.— Diannaa (talk) 20:01, 25 July 2021 (UTC)Reply
