Talk:House of La Fayette

Formatting
Also, there's some bad template formatting above the La Fayette Family Tree. I don't know anything about that template so I can't fix it myself, but someone should clean it up. Politizer talk / contribs 17:50, 19 January 2009 (UTC)
 * I believe that Pohick2 is working on the family tree right now. So, let it be for a while. Frania W. (talk) 19:08, 19 January 2009 (UTC)
 * yes, help, how did that template problem get in there? i was editing an example of julio-claudian family tree. the picture does clarify all that verbiage. is this worthy of a separate article? say de La Fayette Family tree pohick (talk) 13:38, 20 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Pohick: The whole descendant paragraph could be worthy of a separate article.  However, before deciding, you first must get help with this template, but it will not be from poor little old me totally ignorant in wiki template manipulation.  Bonne chance!  Frania W.

 * yes, like the ball of string, i kept finding more web references to de La Fayette genealogy, and havn't read the French reference book yet, (funny, my genealogy is all in the musty archives, far from public view) i'm afraid i know just enough about templates to be dangerous, witness the red links i don't know how to edit out.
 * Btw, Lazu mentioned you were doing something about French noble articles? i commented elsewhere, that they seem less well developed than the English, for example List of French marquisates compared with Peerage of the United Kingdom. is there a group trying to put in "heraldica" into wiki? it would make a nice to do list at WikiProject France pohick (talk) 19:47, 20 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Pohick: No, I am not working on any "List of French whatever" or doing any "heraldica". All I do here is read, edit & follow up on articles that are of interest to me, usually on people & events connected to the history of France.  One leads to another & the ball starts rolling.  Besides, I have a non-wiki profession & do this wiki thing simply for leisure, in order to relax.  Voilà!  Frania W. (talk) 20:56, 20 January 2009 (UTC)
 * no problem, (oh found the error message) "Any instance of |}} will cause a redlink at the top of the chart such as Template:Chart/cellb." now if i could just find the errors (this is worse than fortran) pohick (talk) 02:12, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Pohick: I clicked on *edit page* in order to get LF family tree & checked every sign but could not see "any instance of |}}".  We may have to go out & find help !  Ne vous découragez pas!  Frania W. (talk) 03:14, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * For some template stuff I might be able to help, but I've never worked with this particular template before and I can't really tell what the problem is. If you can narrow the problem down to one specific thing I might be able to look into it.  Otherwise, I bet someone at WP:VP/T can figure it out.

 * thank-you Gadget850, for the code fix! pohick (talk) 15:50, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

I have copyedited the tree, removing links which I believe add little or no value, for example, where it is not a surname but a commune, link to fr.wp article when it's already linked to en.wp. I have also removed some dates of birth and death for those names which already have links/articles. Having looked at some other family trees, I would say the vast majority of them, if not all, have only years of birth and death. However, I have so far not removed all dates for fear of losing information which could be of use at a later date.

Due to the length of names, perhaps we should move to a smaller font? Ohconfucius (talk) 07:35, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

sub-article
Pohick: I believe that once the family tree is done (and formatted properly!), the section should be made into a sub-article to both Gilbert & Adrienne articles, with title that would mention both monsieur & madame, as her descendants are also his. Frania W. (talk) 14:46, 23 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Maison de Noailles maybe a Noailles family tree is in order pohick (talk) 23:56, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
