Law of Maximum Général[edit]

According to the following reference, the Law of Maximum Général was passed on the 29th, not the 17th.

"At last, having tried or debated every other expedient, the Convention yielded to popular pressure and, on 29 September, passed the law of the Maximum Général, which pegged the price of not only bread but of a large range of essential goods and services at levels prevailing in the departments in June 1790 plus one-third, while raising wages by one-half."

I've consulted other sources and they've given this date as well. For anyone who prefers the September 17th date - what sources use this date? Mr. Know-It-All 21:35, 2 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I only changed it back because the Law of Suspects as linked has the 17th date, and not knowing the subject matter assumed it was subtle vandalism by the anon. --Syrthiss 00:08, 3 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Good point. Looking through some books on French history, they say that the Law of Suspects was passed on the 17th, and the Law of Maximum Général was passed on the 29th. I have split the laws into two lines, each with the correct date. Mr. Know-It-All 03:24, 3 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ending of the French revolution[edit]

Is 1799, really the end of the French revolution? I'd put 1804 as the end of the revolution, when Napoleon crowns himself emperor, and he ends any form of democracy. Cause in 1799 you stil have the Plebiscites, even after Napoleon became first consul. Even historican Palmer ends the french revolution in 1804, not in 1799 !

Vandalism[edit]

We're getting a lot of vandalism on this page. Can we restrict editing privileges somehow? Oranges91 (talk) 10:23, 30 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, I just deleted some and then some popped up as I was editing Fruckert (talk) 18:42, 23 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hasn't anyone noticed...[edit]

... that on 21 October 2008, 76.104.217.245 deleted about 40% of the article, including the entire pre-Revolution stage and everything from 1792 onward? I'll try to restore the deleted content. Cyril Washbrook (talk) 11:26, 4 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Could someone set up a redirect?[edit]

Whenever I search for "French Revolution Timeline", Wikipedia comes up with no search results. When I search for "Timeline of the French Revolution", I come to this page. Could someone set up a redirect so that this inconvenience is eliminated? I'm new to editing Wikipedia, so I don't know how to do it myself. Thanks for your help. 71.225.162.32 (talk) 16:53, 29 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

French Revolution timeline is a reasonable redirect. With the capital T is not, clearly it's not a proper noun. - Jmabel | Talk 21:02, 29 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Cleanup and additions[edit]

I believe this article could use some cleanup, citations, a reference list, and more detail about events. I also think it should focus exclusively on events between 1789 and 1799. The earlier dates are interesting, but are rather arbitrary and are not strictly part of a timeline of the French Revolution, but rather a discussion of its causes. I have added a bibliography and and would like to start adding more dates and information. I also think this article really needs some images; it's very dull looking right now. Comments and suggestions welcome. SiefkinDR (talk)

Misplaced event on February 1, 1792[edit]

I think the entry is misplaced or is it vandalism?. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.116.101.152 (talk) 18:41, 19 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
