- Set the importance as low, since it is only obscurely connected with Judaism. Rich Farmbrough, 01:25, 23 June 2010 (UTC).
Removed an absurdity
[edit]The suggestion that Joly borrowed from the 'real' protocols is based on a mention of this by Norman Cohn, who however dismissed it as absurd. This makes it invalid, unsourced, so I removed it.
(By analogy, if a book said "those who suggest Joe Soap murdered his wife talk obvious nonsense", you could not use it as a source for a suggestion that Joe Soap actually did murder his wife.) --GwydionM (talk) 09:50, 17 April 2017 (UTC)

The Dialogue in Hell Between Machiavelli and Montesquieu → Dialogue in Hell between Machiavelli and Montesquieu – I am requesting a correction to the title. This book's original title in French is "Dialogue aux enfers entre Machiavel et Montesquieu". There is no article at the beginning of the title; it is not called "Le Dialogue...". Therefore, a more appropriate translation of the title into English would be "Dialogue in Hell Between Machiavelli and Montesquieu", without "The". JohnMizuki (talk) 23:48, 8 January 2025 (UTC)
- Oppose. While the nomination presents an intuitive argument, the English-language translation has been published as "The Dialogue...", therefore the main title header of English Wikipedia's entry represents the English-language published title of the French text. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 01:06, 9 January 2025 (UTC)
- Oppose. We'd not list All Quiet on the Western Front as Nothing New in the West, which is an accurate translation of the original German title.--GwydionM (talk) 09:19, 9 January 2025 (UTC)
