This page was created using the DIMA entry. A very attentive individual, particularly regarding the anarchist project, and even more the topics I work on, and anarcho-syndicalist historiographical myths in general, pointed out that relying on a single source is not ideal. Since this the two quoted sources are basically identical, I am requesting deletion. I will do the same for all my anarchist entries that rely on only one or two identical sources (DIMA/Maitron) Aristoxène (talk) 09:52, 13 May 2026 (UTC)

Note also that this nom is part of a mass nomination of articles created by the nominator. afD is not cleanup service.--BabbaQ (talk) 08:49, 14 May 2026 (UTC)
  • Speedy keep. Misguided nomination by author. DIMA refers to the Dictionnaire international des militants anarchistes, a biographical dictionary. Generally, tertiary sources like this are, themselves, based on secondary sources. An entry in a biographical dictionary is strong evidence of notability and the biography can, presumably, be improved with a bit of research. pburka (talk) 22:23, 14 May 2026 (UTC)
