Talk:Panthéon/Archive 1

É or E???
I've personally seen Panthéon spelt like this: Pantheon. Are both right, or am I just missing out on the accent? Justintime516 21:45, 22 March 2007 (UTC)


 * "Pantheon" without the acute is the general English term, and applies to various similar monuments. The French spelling is specific to this case.  D. J. Cartwright 00:43, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

Jean Jacques Rousseau is not listed among people buried there
I am curious who edited this article in a way that Jean Jacques Rousseau's name disappeared from the list...shame on you!!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.111.71.153 (talk) 00:38, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

Toussaint Louverture
The parallel French article states that there is only a memorial plaque for Toussaint Louverture, and in 2006, Georges Sarre called for Louverture's remains to be transferred. So I am removing the entry which indicates that Louverture was interred in 1803, which would be immediately after his imprisonment by France. This seems rather unlikely.

Liturgical functions
The article states: "after many changes now combines liturgical functions with its role as a famous burial place." Are there actually any religious rites still performed in the Pantheon? That seems to contradict a later paragraph. Mrglass123 (talk) 21:07, 3 February 2008 (UTC)Mrglass123

Clovis I?
Is this the same Church of Genevieve that was built by Clovis I (according to the Chronicle of St. Denis, I.18-19, 23)? This is not my area of expertise, so could someone with the proper resources check it out? Thanks. Aryaman (☼) 19:17, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

Full list of people interred
The notation for Jean Moulin says, "His body is not in the Panthéon, it was never found." But the biographical entry for Moulin says, "Moulin was initially buried in Le Père Lachaise Cemetery in Paris. His ashes were later transferred to The Panthéon on December 19, 1964." They can't both be correct... - Mangcha 22:23, 10 April 2006 (UTC)

On Louis Pasteur's page it says that he is buried in the panthéon. but he is not on the list. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.162.78.165 (talk) 20:36, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

The 'Paris' Lonley Planet lists Marat among those who have since been removed from the Pantheon after a reevalution of their greatness (6th edition, p. 117). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.52.142.233 (talk) 18:16, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

Félix Éboué is not included in the complete list
Félix Éboué, first black governor-general of a French colony (Guadeloupe, 1936-8, followed by Tchad, 1939-1944) and early supporter of Charles de Gaulle and the Free French, was interred in the Panthéon, along with Victor Schoelcher, in May, 1949. He is the first, and to this date, only person of African descent to be so honored.

His wikipedia entry has the correct information.

 * As Alexandre Dumas was of mixed African-European descent, Éboué is not "the only". 88.178.189.194 (talk) —Preceding undated comment was added at 15:21, 22 October 2008 (UTC).

Pierre Galetto, 1889?
What is the source for this person? He is not mentioned in the French WP Panthéon article nor in its master list of burials. SteveStrummer (talk) 04:58, 25 November 2010 (UTC)

Why is there a Comma in the title?
I don't a comma should be in the title. I think the comma implies a city inside Paris. And the official site doesn't have a comma. DarkFrog (talk) 15:15, 7 November 2011 (UTC)
