Jean René Moreaux[edit]

Created by Djmaschek (talk). Nominated by Matty.007 (talk) at 17:03, 27 February 2014 (UTC).

  • Not a self-nom, so QPQ not necessary. Article new and long enough. The hook doesn't appear to be inline-cited. Otherwise, I have some concern about whether the sources are reliable per ordinary Wikipedia standards ; in particular geneanet.org and napoleonseries.org. The most used book appears to be reliably published but is from 1905, so it might not be the best and most updated. I would like to hear article creator or nominator comment on this.

  • If you still have questions/reservations about the references, you shouldn't use an "approved" tick. Best, Yoninah (talk) 01:08, 6 March 2014 (UTC)
Changed it. Thanks for correcting. I must have mixed-up when they copy-pasted the icon, because it was another one I intended to use. Regards, Iselilja (talk) 02:12, 6 March 2014 (UTC)
OK: ref 1 I'm not 100% sure about, I will ask the creator. Ref 2 seems OK, "The International Napoleonic Society (INS) is a primary sponsor of the Napoleon Series". There is unlikely much more recent work on a Napoleonic general; and I doubt that there are often, if ever, revalations about such a topic. Thanks, Matty.007 18:03, 6 March 2014 (UTC)
  • @Matty.007: any news on ref 1? It's been over two and a half weeks, and we can't wait forever. Thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 02:36, 26 March 2014 (UTC)
  • No reply from the creator, I have no access to books, so reject this. Thanks, Matty.007 18:26, 26 March 2014 (UTC)
