A little chore needs to be done with the name "Thiers"... all articles that link to this one, or mention his name, need to be checked to see if all references to Thiers that are not within wikilinks or html links have been marked {{lang|fra|Thiers}}. See for example Baron Haussmann— I didn't put the {{ lang}} over the first mention of his name because it's wikilinked, but the second mention got it.. if there had been other mentions, those should have too...

I've noticed that the term dates were originally listed correctly and then changed. I've returned them to the original dates. They can be verified on the French Wikipedia, as well as the article on Thiers' successor, Marechel Mac-Mahon, or by using any good French history or constitutional law book covering the period.

This page STINKS of personal bias. "Thiers was by far the most gifted and interesting of the group of literary statesmen which formed a unique feature in the French political history of the 19th century. There are only two who are at all comparable to him, Guizot and Lamartine; and as a statesman he stands far above both. Nor is this eminence merely due to his great opportunity in 1870; for Guizot might under Louis Philippe have almost made himself a French Robert Walpole, at least a French Palmerston, and Lamartine's opportunities after 1848 were, for a man of political genius, unlimited."
This is a joke, right? I know Wiki is a user contributed source, but C'MAAAAAAN, personal opinion should never be left out there like it's fact. THIS is why Wiki isn't accepted by professors, too unprofessional. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.231.138.221 ( talk) 04:31, 17 July 2010 (UTC)
Much of the text of this article is a direct copy from the Encyclopedia Britannica article (I was just looking at the 9th edition). Jackiespeel ( talk) 17:33, 27 January 2011 (UTC)
Current description says 'all Thiers' historical work is marked by extreme inaccuracy, by prejudice which passes the limits of accidental unfairness, and by an almost complete indifference to the merits as compared with the successes of his heroes.' Tone is not neutral and no sources given. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.76.8.43 ( talk) 11:01, 19 August 2014 (UTC)
Isn't there any other quotable then the radical protobolshevik Marx ?
I think the possessive should be Thiers'

There are various opinions; as long as the page is consistent, I think that's fine. How would you say it? That's one of the considerations. I would say "Thiers's", with the second 's', so that is how I would spell it.

I would prefer to use Thiers' ; it's simpler and I think it looks less cluttered.. But I agree that whatever is used should be consistent. Respectfully,
