Title

[edit]

I'm taking suggestions. Should the title of this article be changed to "Muriel, ou le Temps d'un retour"? That is, to add the comma and capitalize Temps instead of Le, just like the French wiki. Or perhaps it should be in English? The current title is identical to IMDB's. --Dedachan 18:42, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Resnais's vs. Resnais'

[edit]

This article uses both forms, but MOS:PERSON says that one form should be used consistently. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.2.254.6 (talk) 16:03, 13 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

MOS:POSS proposes a choice of two methods of forming the possessive of a word or name ending in a singular s.
Method 1. Always add 's, except for some classical or biblical names.
Method 2. Decide according to pronunciation: "Add only an apostrophe if the possessive is pronounced the same way as the non-possessive name". Otherwise add 's. Since the final s of Resnais is silent, it needs the 's to make an audible possessive. Lampernist (talk) 09:58, 14 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
