error in this.

[edit] Article title

Should be Le (not le) Chatelier. --Kmorrow 16:55, 29 May 2005 (UTC)

And he is Henry not Henri.. --Kmorrow 17:02, 29 May 2005 (UTC)


Page copyedited. Made one substantive change, identifying LC as influential figure of late 19th/early 20th century rather than 19th only, since article refers to substantive work and publications after 1900. Monicasdude 16:01, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)

It could be Henri (a google search gives almost as much Henri as Henry but French streets are called "Henri Le Chatelier" and not "Henry Le Chatelier" --Poppypetty 00:22PT, 04 August 2005

[edit] Le Chatelier's name

Should it be Le Châtelier? All the chemistry books have it with the diacritical mark above the a, but I would assume the French wikipage would be correct, so I'm confused.Olin 14:18, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

I was thinking the same thing. The article on his theory, Le Châtelier's Principle is also inconsistent. Can anyone clear this issue up? Zchenyu 23:20, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

I think Henri is the French name (and since he's French, it's appropriate he be called Henri). Henry is the anglicized version.Nonagonal Spider 06:02, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

There was a discussion on french wiki about this problem. It had been conclued that the good way to write the name was "Henry Le Chatelier". I made the corrections. Rhadamante 23:41, 26 December 2006 (UTC)


Very strangely it is Henry which is effectively not the usual way of writing this name in French. His father was name (Henri) Louis Le Chatelier who is in fact known as fr:Louis Le Chatelier.Romary 12:45, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
