This redirect is written in British English, which has its own spelling conventions (colour, travelled, centre, defence, artefact, analyse) and some terms that are used in it may be different or absent from other varieties of English.

The Notable members section now appears to be relying upon compiled Wikipedia articles as a reference. This seems to be in breach of WP:CIRCULAR. I am not sure if a precedent to allow this scenario has been established elsewhere, but my experience is that such lists have had to be referenced with suitable external sources (even if they are lifted from the related Wikipedia articles). Unless there is an accepted precedent for this, these need to be referenced or the B-Class status removed as failing b1. AusTerrapin (talk) 07:29, 25 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

There is a move discussion in progress on Talk:Ordre des Palmes Académiques which affects this page. Please participate on that page and not in this talk page section. Thank you. —RMCD bot 22:16, 20 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
