A fact from Marie Vuillemin appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 25 February 2024 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
Did you know... that Marie Vuillemin was acquitted in the trial of the Bonnot Gang, as the prosecution defined her according to her gender rather than her role in the gang?
The following is an archived discussion of the DYK nomination of the article below. Please do not modify this page. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as this nomination's talk page, the article's talk page or Wikipedia talk:Did you know), unless there is consensus to re-open the discussion at this page. No further edits should be made to this page.
@Grnrchst: This isn't a review, more of a comment, but I wonder if both the article and the hook could be modified since the use of the term "defined" here isn't a common use of the term and thus could be confusing. Like, what does "defined her according to her gender" mean? Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 10:39, 27 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Narutolovehinata5: I appreciate that this may not have been clear, I just wasn't sure how else to word it. To quote the source: "In [the prosecutor's] opening he outlined the salient features of the prosecution case and the intention to prove a general conspiracy among all the defendants, whom he classed in five categories : first there were the six principal offenders, [...] then five 'intermediaries', [...] five 'harbourers', [...] two providers of firearms, [...] and lastly the three women, Henriette Maitrejean, Marie Vuillemin and Barbe Ledech, graciously defined by Lescouve according to their sex rather than by their alleged criminal role." --Grnrchst (talk) 10:47, 27 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
DYK nom made within four days of the article's creation. Article is long enough and COPYVIO free. QPQ was done. Source is reliable and supports the claim. Point of fact with the source: page 155 says the prosecutor made the point of their womanhood and page 160 assesses they were let off "in a display of gentlemanly grace". Page 159 (cited in the article) says they were acquitted of all charges, which is true. I guess the hook is "interesting" enough. Hook is 156 characters. The alternate hook is 117 characters and I don't prefer it. The other linked articles don't present problems with "presentability". I'm sorry drive-by comments delayed this by a month.
