Further history and article?[edit]

It's odd that this article cuts off all of a sudden around the 17th century. What happened after it was renamed? What about the occupation of the Nazis during WWII? How did it affect the citizens of the village? How old are the stone or brick buildings? When was the (highly photographed) bridge built? Who originally settled the area? History is more than just a name, but this article only explains the name change. These are just a few tips on what to add to explain the article more fully, at least under history. The rest of the article is completely missing. For all of these reasons, I am tagging this article as incomplete. Hopefully a kind soul can fix the page. :) MagnoliaSouth (talk) 16:02, 4 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

As it happens I have a holiday home in this village and would be pleased to assist. I am Wiki-illiterate so would appreciate some hand-holding (;-). I can start by adding info already on the French page to the English; is that a good idea? NL Derek (talk) 20:35, 16 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Possible copyvio[edit]

Coming to read this article after enjoying the film The Hundred-Foot Journey I was struck by the wording "... as shown by this exquisite carving of Adam, Eve, the Serpent and the Tree of Knowledge.". Which carving? There's nothing illustrated. More significantly, there was no image included when this chunk of text was added in May 2005, and it exactly matches the text of http://www.beyond-the-pale.org.uk/SantAntounin.htm , which does have an image of the Adam and Eve carving. While there isn't an explicit copyright statement on that page, or on the home page of http://www.beyond-the-pale.org.uk, it's still copyright material, and the presence of the image makes me pretty sure that Wikipedia contains text copied from that website, not the other way round.

Just to rise to the challenge, I found and added a picture of the carving referred to! PamD 23:45, 17 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I think that is pretty much a certainty, PamD. Since archive.org doesn't have the page that far back (though it does have some of the same content here), it is just conceivably possible that the site could have copied from us in the 19 hours or so between the addition of the material and the subsequent copy-editing (which removed the word "pious", for example), but it really doesn't seem very likely. I've removed it all – I'm sorry if that makes your picture look lonely! Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 00:44, 18 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
