I refer to this article:

Pierre-Georges Arlabosse (8 July 1891 – 8 February 1950)[1] (in Arabic بيار-جورج أرلابوس) was a French politician who became acting President of Lebanon for 5 days, from 4 to 9 April 1941 for the interim period in transfer of presidency from Émile Eddé, the third president of the Lebanese republic under the French Mandate 1936 to 1941 and president Alfred Naqqache (French transliteration Alfred Georges Naccache), the fourth president for 1941 to 1943.

This WRONGLY refers to my grandfather Pierre-Georges Arlabosse (but the dates of his birth and demise are correct). The article should INSTEAD refer to his brother, Paul-Hippolyte Arlabosse. Neither of them was a “politician”. They were both in the French army, and both were generals. Paul-Hippolyte was born on 2 March 1886 and died on 18 September 1970.

The article on Paul-Hippolyte in the French Wikipedia states that: “Du 10 juillet 1940 au 15 novembre 1941 il est commandant adjoint de l'Armée du Levant. Le 15 Novembre 1941 il est commandant des troupes de Beyrouth au Liban et participe à la Campagne de Syrie (1941) dans l'armée du Régime de Vichy. Le 20 mai 1941 il est nommé général de division.”

Meanwhile Pierre-Georges was held captive in Germany.

A similar mistake appears in the Wikipedia’s article: List of Presidents of Lebanon and in the article on Pierre-Georges in the French Wikipedia, which also WRONGLY states that he was “de rite maronite”.
