Old comment

This is very old fashionned and not really NPOV. Who feels to rewrite ?

I made a cut at it, but there are references to last names whose full names I don't know. Any help? -- Zoe

I will try to look at this but not now it's getting very late. Ericd 02:01 Apr 7, 2003 (UTC)

Roussel

Hi. I just added the passage about Roussel's Locus Solus in the "fictionalized accounts" section. Unfortunately, I can't remember if I've gotten the details of the arrangement with the executioner exactly right, but the section in Locus Solus pertaining to Danton's head and Roussel's fictionalized back-story is too fantastical to leave out of the wiki, especially since there's already a "fictionalized accounts" section.

As a side-note, the wiki really is in serious need of some organization and "clean-up." There seems to be a wealth of information, but it's highly inaccessible. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.95.39.34 (talkcontribs) 27 July 2006.

is this history?

why is the 1911 Britannica being referenced for goodness sake? How is that useful. Research has moved a bit in the last 110 years. Plus why is the article so weirdly disjointed? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.150.112.52 (talk) 22:28, 18 December 2020 (UTC)Reply
