Neutrality of the Career section
The career section makes an unfair use of the source material, falsifying it to create a deviant image of the author's political views. In fact, it is not even a description of the writer's carrer, and reads more like a list of misbehaviours.

The paragraph on Limonov, for example, contradicts the source it cites, and which is supposed to corroborate its content. In that paragraph, we read that Carrère and Limonov were on good terms. In the article, however, Limonov says the opposite, and even "wishes Carrère to come to a bad end". Moreover, the paragraph's formulation seems to suggest that Carrère agrees with Limonov's politics – which is far from being true and largely contradicted by the novel itself. Finally, the paragraph confuses two different novels: the “Nazi” grandfather is described (in critical terms) by Carrère in Un roman russe, and it is certainly not the fascination for his behaviours that prompted the author to write about Limonov. This is a subjective and unsubstantiated interpretation.

The paragraph on the alleged friendship between Carrère and Renaud Camus, too, is imprecise. As the letters published in "Faire effraction dans le réel" show, the two writers quarrelled precisely because of Carrère’s condemnation of Renaud's political positions and of his antisemitism. Moreover, the alleged friendship between Carrère and Renaud is not, in itself, a political position (as the paragraph implicitly seems to suggest).

The page suggests that Carrère's recent reportage on Ukrainian crises was criticised. However, to corroborate this statement it refers to an extremely laudatory interview.

The section concerning his admiration for Michel Houellebecq, apart from appearing incongruently in a section dedicated to Carrère’s career, is also based on false evidence. It is true that, in the mentioned article, Carrère praises Submission's "extraordinary novelistic consistency" (not "romantic": it is clear that that whoever created the text cannot read French and used Google to translate the source material). However, he has never approved of Houellebecq's political views, and has often denounced the obscene politics of France regarding migrants (most notably, in Calais and Yoga).

I tried to propose a series of changes, but the person who is slandering the author keeps cancelling my edits. Wikipedia is turning into a vector for people’s hatred and frustration. Could someone intervene? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.52.24.23 (talk) 00:23, 3 April 2022 (UTC)


 * I just found out that the user adding the false information (both in French and English) has been banned: https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discussion_utilisateur:Sulpyensid
 * THe given reason is: « Bannissement du détenteur du compte après plusieurs bilans négatifs de sa participation : Très probablement Wikipédia:Faux-nez/Albion~frwiki ».
 * Again, could someone intervene?

 * False information about authors - they have already been banned on French wikipedia but continue their slandering acts. See: https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discussion_utilisateur:Sulpyensid 193.52.24.23 (talk) 00:52, 3 April 2022 (UTC)
