The review department of WikiProject France is the project's forum for conducting detailed reviews—both formal and informal—of particular articles and other content within its scope. This department performs internal reviews and provides a place where external (id est, official Wikipedia Reviews, such as Good Article and Featured Article reviews can be watched.

The goal of including external reviews is to notify members of particular articles which are being driven through Wikipedia's improvement process. Hopefully, by providing this forum, project members will be encouraged to participate in the amelioration of these articles.

The department hosts reviews internal to the project:

Peer review (an informal review meant to provide ideas for further improvement)

It also provides a convenient collection of France and French content currently undergoing featured content reviews outside the project. If knowledgeable, feel free to read or contribute to these reviews (however, these reviews are Transcluded from their source, which is external from Wikiproject France):

Peer review

The peer review department of the France WikiProject conducts peer review of articles on request. The primary objective is to encourage better articles by having contributors who may not have worked on articles to examine them and provide ideas for further improvement.

The peer review process is highly flexible and can deal with articles of any quality; however, requesting reviews on very short articles may not be productive, as there is little for readers to comment on.

All reviews are conducted by fellow editors—usually members of the France WikiProject. While there is a general intent to expand this process to allow for review by subject experts, the preparations for this are not yet complete.

After a 15-day wait, I'm bringing this one back for FLC. Is there really anything I missed out on since last time? --Slgrandson (How's my egg-throwing coleslaw?) 20:49, 5 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

~~Image:Bellflower Bunnies title card.JPG Do you mind removing those black bars at the side and re-uploading?~~
- They are now sufficiently invisible. Pie is good ^{(Apple is the best)} 23:52, 13 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Do we really need four cites to back up one fact(6,7,8,9)? Wouldn't a cite that states all 4 countries suffice?
- Cite has been provided. Pie is good ^{(Apple is the best)} 23:52, 13 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Not really going into detail, as it looks pretty good. Pie is good ^{(Apple is the best)} 02:15, 7 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

All issues I can see are addressed. I therefore lend my support. Pie is good ^{(Apple is the best)} 23:52, 13 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The result was keep. Notability is there, just needs content. Tagged with {{expand}} also. (non-admin closure) treelo _radda 00:50, 19 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Anne Louise Boyvin d'Hardancourt Brillon de Jouy

Independent notability not established; neither being an aristocrat nor a friend of someone famous is adequate for this- notability is not inherited. Playing the harpsichord, however well, does not satisfy WP:MUSICIAN on its own, although I'm sure she could lay down a mean riff. Rodhull andemu 21:33, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I am not at all knowledgeable with the notability guidelines for composers (although, I did just now read them); and do not believe I can make a valid argument either way. I do note that she is mentioned in the Norton Grove Dictionary of Women Composers, but I don't know how to interpret the "reasonable length" criterion of the notability guidelines. Regards, Lazulilasher (talk) 00:10, 15 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. A Google Books search [2] would appear to indicate that she was a notable composer/musician in her day, and notability does not expire. Phil Bridger (talk) 19:54, 15 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep and tag for expansion -- This article is little more than an unreferenced stub. It is categorised as "Women composers", but the text does not even state that she was a composer. Her relationship with Franklin is interesting, but does not establish her notability (and that is all the article covers so far). However, her status as a composer might do so. Her appearance in Grove is probably an indication that she is notable, but the article does not deal with that. Peterkingiron (talk) 16:39, 18 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The result was redirect to Yvoire. Redirects are cheap. Black Kite 08:38, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Evoir

I can't find a place named "Evoir" in France. It seems that the creator of this article was referring to Yvoire. Korg (talk) 20:59, 8 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This debate has been included in the list of France-related deletion discussions. —Korg (talk) 21:19, 8 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Yvoire, then. -- Eastmain (talk) 21:35, 8 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Yep, should be speedily redirected. Lazulilasher (talk) 23:21, 8 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- I originally considered the redirect, but I thought the spelling was rather implausible... Korg (talk) 23:46, 8 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  - Could be, but I can't find a mention of Evoir in France either (especially so near Geneve). Yvoire is legit. Lazulilasher (talk) 00:33, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete- no redirect then we'd have redirects for every possible typo variant on the whole of Wikipedia. And two short sentences hardly warrants a keep... --Fred McGarry (talk) 11:40, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- It's reasonable to have redirects for mis-spellings that people have been so confident about that they have begun a new article on the subject at them. If one person makes the mistake, others will in the future. Deleting the article just leaves us open to further cycles of mistake→new article→deletion discussion in the future, as this happens all over again. Redirecting the article, on the other hand, takes all future readers to the right place and prevents everyone's time being wasted with any further such cycles.

Notability at best borderline, but seems to fail. He has indeed published a book, but I find no evidence of the "acclaim" mentioned in the first sentence. Biruitorul ^Talk 04:45, 1 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
