I restored the notation of Francois Mitterand, which had been removed by someone else on the grounds of "no source." Nothing on the page has a source, so by that rationale the entire thing should be deleted; indeed, most of Wikipedia would fall under the same scrutiny. For a discussion of Mitterand's involvement with the group, see Bar-Zohar's book "Bitter Scent," which is listed at the bottom of the page and provided the background for my original version of the page, posted in March 2005.

Mitterrand

"According to Michael Bar-Zohar, President of the Fifth Republic François Mitterrand, who was a junior minister under Vichy, but worked for the Resistance, was also a member of the Cagoule Michael Bar-Zohar, Bitter Scent: The Case of L'Oréal, Nazis, and the Arab Boycott (London, Dutton Books: 1996) pp. 264.."

May you please provide another source apart of this book? Bar-Zohar doesn't seem to be very famous, and although I am not personally opposed to quoting sources that goes against popular knowledge, claims that a president used to belong to a terrorist group needs a bit more than a "controversial" historian which we don't know anything more. If Zohar is a WP:RS, you surely can prove it. If he isn't, than it must be removed. Your argument about "most of Wikipedia" is not a legitimate argument. Lapaz 12:57, 8 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Beside there is nothing concerning this alleged involvement in the French Wikipedia, and I can assure you that if it was known in France (and Mitterrand's far right past is known - but belonging to the far right is not belonging to a terrorist group), than it would be there.

Splitting off the coat article

The coat and the group have nothing to do with each other, so I will be splitting it off for WP:FASHION and removing the tag. Daniel Case 14:01, 23 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No problem with that. I'm not sure why I didn't do that originally. (Author of the coat bit) Bards 14:23, 23 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've done it, and added this to the WP:FRANCE worklist. Daniel Case 22:20, 24 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
