:Yes, I believe you mentioned above. His family name is Belloc with a c (apparently a spelling variation of Beaulieu (French for beautiful place), the area of France in which his family may have originated.) [[User:ELSchissel|ELSchissel]] ([[User talk:ELSchissel|talk]]) 16:02, 23 March 2022 (UTC)

To anon editor: please try to stay within the bounds of the NPOV style. Charles Matthews 22:47, 12 Jan 2005 (UTC)

To User:Polycarp: please note the above comment. This article, like any other at WP, is meant to be for information, not advocacy. I am going to change back parts of it. Charles Matthews 09:59, 16 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Comment on the politics - it would be good to support this with a specific quote. He was pro-Mussolini, and certainly very much a supporter of the Nationalist side in the Spanish Civil War. I don't want to write anything facile about this on the page. I believe his position in the early 1920s was sort of monarchist. I also believe that while his politics were fairly similar to the French style of Maurras, he was not actually in agreement with Maurras, whom he found too godless. Therefore, while he was a long way to the authoritarian right, there are also some nuances that should be brought out. Charles Matthews 07:51, 19 Feb 2005 (UTC)

works/bibliography

The list of "works" in the article (Hilaire Belloc#Works) is entirely made up of fairly obscure essays and articles, with the occasional link to a fringe website that hosts copies of them, but the main books are on a separate page, Hilaire Belloc bibliography, which lists only books and no articles. This seems an entirely unhelpful way of presenting the material. I would suggest putting the long list of essays and articles in the "bibliography" and just list a few of the most notable works in the main article. --Andreas Philopater (talk) 19:14, 21 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

anti-evolution efforts

If his anti-evolution writings were his "most effective", that's condemnation rather than praise, since they betrayed his lack of knowledge about science, and didn't really persuade those who knew about science of anything. Martin Gardner has an account in Fads and Fallacies in the Name of Science... AnonMoos (talk) 00:38, 4 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

See also

Happy New Year. I'm making an edit in "See also" section to include Hilaire Belloc - Wikiquote link: Hilaire Belloc - Wikiquote. Would anyone know how to in include the same thing using "[[...]]", rather than what I've done above with "[...]"? Thank for your help.

Cheers, Thomasmeeks (talk) 16:46, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

OK, here's the proper format that I've now incorporated into the "See also" sect. of the article: * Hilaire Belloc - Wikiquote.

About his writings

Hillaire Belloe wrote comical Cautionary Tales for Children in verse. His verses rise to mock-serious heights and then provide a simple lesson. This poem describes a tragic incident that occurs as a result of giving a 'dangerous' balloon to George, with an obvious moral: don't give dangerous toys to little children. 1.39.21.11 (talk) 10:37, 14 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I believe you mentioned above. His family name is Belloc with a c (apparently a spelling variation of Beaulieu (French for beautiful place), the area of France in which his family may have originated.) ELSchissel (talk) 16:02, 23 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Re Anti-semitism accusations paragraph

Is his book "The Jews" (first published in or before 1922) relevant here? ELSchissel (talk) 15:59, 23 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
