Untitled[edit]

Would it be worth mentioning the death of the Francois de Guise? I seem to recall that there was a view that Henri de Guise's role in St Bartholomew's was at least partly inspired by his view that Coligny was responsible for the death of his father —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.212.0.34 (talk) 19:02, 10 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Date of birth - image shows different date[edit]

This image of a monument gives 1517 as the date of birth, while the article gives 1519. Why might this be? Would it be worth adding a note to the thumbnail explaining the discrepancy? --134.225.160.102 (talk) 14:52, 12 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Nice spotting! 1bandsaw (talk) 16:32, 12 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Are we sure he's born in 1519, not 1517?[edit]

Cos I was walking past the Louve yesterday and they've got this effing great statue of him on Rue Rivoli saying in big gold digits that he was born in 1517.

I think the statue was late C19th. {Think 3e Republic secularism} Maybe they confused his birth with the Reformation.

But the French don't normally get their statue details wrong. Ganpati23 (talk) 07:13, 19 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
