From proposal to street sign

How a street gets its name

Every name on these pages went through the same procedure. The national rule is law no. 1188 of 23 June 1927: no street may be named after a person who died less than ten years earlier, except by exemption from the Prefect.

What this page rests on

Every fact is checked against at least two independent sources and, where one exists, the official source.

Two independent sources

Dates, measurements and names go through at least two sources that do not copy each other. Where it exists, we go to the original: the deed, the archive, the body that owns it. What appears in only one place waits.

One version only

If two sources disagree, the original document prevails. If even that is not enough, only the part they agree on is written: the year, for example, instead of the day.

Updated every day

The press review and calendar are updated every day. Everything else changes when a new document turns up, and then it changes everywhere at once.

From the community

Many memories, family photographs and tips come from people who live here, writing to the Facebook page. They are published only if the sender agrees. How to take part: Community.

Everything traceable

Sources are listed above and on the page Sources, with archive, shelfmark and terms of use.

No interpretation passed off as fact

An approximate figure stays approximate, a project stays a project until construction starts, and whatever does not add up stays out. The criteria are in Method.
