... that French historian Patrice Gueniffey called
Ridley Scott's 2023 film Napoleon a "very anti-French and very pro-British" rewrite of history? Source: “ And a biographer of Napoleon, Patrice Gueniffey in Le Point magazine, attacked the film as a "very anti-French and very pro-British" rewrite of history.”

Rejected Hi,
Thriley. I wish I had good news for you after you've waited nearly a month and a half for this review. However, I must reject this nomination. It came on
November 30, a full 10.75 days after the page was created on
November 19 (rather than Nov 21, as listed on
WP:DYKN). That's well outside the one-week window and beyond the one-to-two-day extension period permitted by
WP:DYKNEW. I tried finding an exemption that would have allowed you to argue this was a 5x expansion, but this version existed more than ten days prior to the nomination. Sorry. ~

Thriley: Goodness, you're right—I missed this. I looked for something of the sort but must have just glanced over it. Give me a a bit to review the nomination again as I worry I may have missed other important details. I'm so sorry, Thriley, and appreciate you explaining the issue. ~

Page size: 1549 B (pass). Newness: see above (pass). Copyvios: No issues found, AGF pass on translations (I modified one short quote from an English source into a short paraphrase). Sourcing: References look good and seem to establish notability, so an AGF pass due to minor limitations caused by language barrier. No images. Hook is pulled straight from source and cited in the right location in the text. QPQ done. ~

I can speak just enough French to get myself into trouble, so this is an AGF pass. I want to thank
Thriley for their patience on the review and with me. Good to go! ~
