Francis Rapp in 2014

• ... that the medievalist Francis Rapp (pictured), who taught at three universities in Strasbourg, focused on the history of [the city and] Alsace? Source: The three institutions are listed, and the titles speak for themselves, I think.

• Rest in peace, Professor! New enough at time of nomination, hook is fairly interesting, long enough, no copyvio detected (assuming good faith for the offline/French sources)--now just missing QPQ. Kingoflettuce (talk) 08:27, 12 April 2020 (UTC)

I reviewed now Template:Did you know nominations/Charlton Miner Lewis. - Happy Easter, or: the resurrection of loving-kindness --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:30, 12 April 2020 (UTC)

Same to you, amen! Kingoflettuce (talk) 15:30, 12 April 2020 (UTC)

• Hi, I came by to promote this, but I don't see a cite for him specialising in the history of Alsace, nor any mention of him teaching the history of Strausborg. Yoninah (talk) 19:48, 19 April 2020 (UTC)

• It's not saying the teaching focuses on it, it's a summary of his (cited) publications. Feel free to word that differently. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:52, 19 April 2020 (UTC)
• The acadrmie source simply says "Médiéviste et historien de l’Alsace, Francis Rapp ..." - Accordingly, I suggest to drop "the city and" from the hook. I don't know where to place it in the article, other than the lead where it is already. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:00, 19 April 2020 (UTC)

• @Gerda Arendt: OK, just add an inline cite for the history of Alsace, even if it's in the lead. Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 20:10, 19 April 2020 (UTC)

done, I hope, thank you --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:19, 19 April 2020 (UTC)

• Thank you. Restoring tick per Kingoflettuce's review. Yoninah (talk) 20:25, 19 April 2020 (UTC)
