AI slop
Can someone explain to User:Clad032 that le slop is la merde? See c:Commons:Deletion requests/Files uploaded by Clad032. This is really egregious, they completely mangled the ship. Compare File:BNS M940 Oostende juin 26.png to . Ropes, antennas, covers, etc.
Also, check their contributions here. If they like AI, odds are it's not just images.. — Alexis Jazz (discuter) 15 juin 2026 à 20:37 (CEST)

Dee Palmer
Dee Palmer's date of death has not been announced; the announcement was made on 13 June, but did not give an exact date. Some sources have erroneously given that as the death date. No reliable sources do so. Please correct the article. Pigsonthewing (discuter) 28 juin 2026 à 14:58 (CEST)
- Hi @Pigsonthewing, I removed the day of death on Palmer's article, only putting "June 2026". Skimel (discuter) 20 juillet 2026 à 12:26 (CEST)
St Agnes's, Rouen - local assistance needed
In en:G. Howell-Baker, we learn that (at least prior to WWI) the painter's "work in oil, Joan of Arc, was in the church of St Agnes in Rouen." At least one source gives this as "St Anne's, Rouen".
Does the church still exist? If so, is there someone who could kindly check whether the painting is still there, perhaps by visiting, or writing to its authorities (in French - I am an English monoglot) to ask? Obviously, a reliable source confirming the painting's location, or loss, would be useful.
Perhaps the work is digitised, or could be photographed? Pigsonthewing (discuter) 10 août 2026 à 15:18 (CEST)
A French language article for a French organisation
Can someone please create a French language article for APNEL? Helper201 (discuter) 10 août 2026 à 22:18 (CEST)
- @Helper201 : the fact that an article on enwiki exists doesn't imply that the subject is notorious enough to be on frwiki.
- After a quick reseach, it doesn't seem to meet frwiki's criteria.

- As the article in English lacks references, you should start by improving it, so maybe something can be done here.
- Please note that there is already the article Apnel contre France, whose notoriety does not appear to be sufficient to justify its inclusion here.

- Hi SyntaxTerror (d · c · b). Thanks for the message. It would probably be easier for someone who find this here who is fluent in French to find sources and improve the English language page, as I assume being a French organisation most sources about it will be in French. I'm not fluent in French. Helper201 (discuter) 16 août 2026 à 14:53 (CEST)
A French language article that exists already in German
Hello,
I've made an article about the book series Les Racines du Savoir from Gallimard Jeunesse in German. de:Meyers Jugendbibliothek. Is there anybody who can write the French article? Merci beaucoup! --Honza (discuter) 30 août 2026 à 16:32 (CEST)
- Bonjour, les règles d'admissibilité ne sont pas identiques dans la wikipédia francophone et la wikipédia germanophone. Votre article sur de:wp ne comprend aucune source liée. Tel quel, son admissibilité sur fr:wp n'est pas démontrée. Cordialement, -- Hippo discutez sans frapper 30 août 2026 à 17:06 (CEST)

- Hallo, die Zulassungskriterien unterscheiden sich zwischen der französischsprachigen und der deutschsprachigen Wikipedia. Ihr Artikel auf de:wp enthält keine verlinkten Quellen. In dieser Form ist seine Zulässigkeit auf fr:wp nicht nachgewiesen. mfG -- Hippo discutez sans frapper 30 août 2026 à 17:06 (CEST)
