[edit]

1. I have added "{{Unreferenced}}" because the article is full of 'facts' which are at best unsubstantiated. For example, the business about Gabrielle's taking care of Henri's clothes, or the business about "Paris is worth a mass" - a famous legend, but I know of no good, early source for it, and it's suspicious that Miquel in this book on the Wars of Religion doesn't even think it's worth a hint. The too-casual, subjective style of the article - e.g., "Perhaps she tempted fate too much.", "his saintly sister Catherine" - also bothers me, and maybe I will try to work on it, but I'd like a lot of help with the sources for the purported facts.

2. I have changed "After applying to Pope Clement VIII for a divorce" to "After applying to Pope Clement VIII for an annulment of his marriage"; earlier version was a major error of fact. Tireisias 10:06, 24 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
