Inconsistency in date of Latreille/Bory incident

edit

I'm noting here an inconsistency in the reported date of the incident in which Latereille was released from prison due to the intervention of Bory. The Latreille page reports it as having happened when Bory was 15 years old, while the Bory page reports it as having happened when Bory was 18 years old. On both pages a source is given, but the two pages use different sources. The corresponding French Wikipedia pages show a similar inconsistency. Felix116 (talk) 20:42, 10 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

Dear Felix116 (talk), your remark is absolutely correct. I just corrected this mistake (in Bory's pages in English and French). Latreille was indeed incarcerated in 1793 and entered in contact with the young Bory in 1794, when he was at the time 15-16 years old, as it is correctly mentioned in Latreille pages. Thank you very much for your accurate and pertinent observation, notification and significant help! Leporello78 (talk) 18:59, 16 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
