"Michel and her family became convinced she was possessed by a demon."

"Anna Elisabeth Michel" is the name under her picture, her last (sir?) name in Michel.

Should that read "Anne and her family" or "Anne Michel and her family" Or was it just her family that thought it? Then it should read "Michel's family became convinced"

P.S. Is it normal to refer to people by there last name in Wikipedia? I find that odd, it's sort of confusing when talking about members of her family. ImWACCo ( talk) 05:51, 10 November 2019 (UTC)imWACC reply

Yes, it's normal. -- Hob Gadling ( talk) 18:24, 30 November 2021 (UTC) reply

The last paragraph of section "Psychiatric treatment" states:

"However Goodman contradicts herself stating Roswitha remembers that Michel often took less than three tablets of Tegretol a day when her prescriptions began to run low, then would..."

Goodman is never introduced prior and is not mentioned anywhere else in the article.

Seems to be a relic from earlier versions. Goodman is a bad source, so it was deleted, but seemingly not in toto. -- Hob Gadling ( talk) 18:24, 30 November 2021 (UTC) reply

I deleted the paragraph. -- Hob Gadling ( talk) 19:43, 30 November 2021 (UTC) reply

She believed she brought the stigmata, witnessed by her mother and those present at her future exhumation I could not parse this sentence into making sense. "Brought"? It sounds like she had beliefs about her "future exhumation". -- Hob Gadling ( talk) 06:19, 5 October 2023 (UTC) reply
