It was (and still is) the equivalent institution to a natural history museum, equivalent at 100%. In 1793, when the French king was guillotined (this time the guy was Louis XVI), the royal institution saw its name changed to 950:

On the website of this museum I see that in several different places they give their name exactly like this: "Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle". I tried to "move" the article title to reflect this, but I am unable to. Surely there is no better reference for how to write this title than the museum

As I'm sure many of you know, the word for 'museum' in French is 'musée', yet this place is called a 'muséum'. Does anybody know why it is called such? This information should if possible be included in the article because I'm sure that other French speakers have also wondered at this naming anomaly

While I don't doubt Vincent Battesti had good intentions by whatever edit he was making, unfortunately this particular edit appears to have reverted possibly years worth of edits to the article. My guess is that 6 years of edits were lost, taking the article back in time to 2015, around the time he

If the last one is indeed the way that the names of other national natural history museums here are constructed, then perhaps you are right that we should use that.

The problem with that suggestion is that there are at least 4 different ways of rendering the museum's name in English. The one you suggest is only one version. Try a Google search and you will see what I mean within the top 8 listings.

985:. Natural history museums, in France and elsewhere, specialise in natural history, not in orthotypography. This is why their website is not correct. Correct French orthotypography for this museum's name is, in French, 966:

A little while ago, I accidentally "moved" the name of the talk page rather than the name of the article. However, I am officially requesting a move for the name of the article, so let us see what happens.

The "garden" (Jardin des Plantes de Paris) and the "galeries", all expositions of the museum, make up the "historical heart" of the museum. But the museum has other sites in and out of Paris over France

first tried to add the logo to the page. Did anyone else notice this happened? Can something be done about the lost changes here, even though a year's worth of edits have been added to it since then?

1384: 1416: 1412: 1398: 928:. Soon or late I will bring the answer to this question by editing the article (with referenced sources, of course). But before that, I have some other things to do. 604: 1586: 1576: 683: 594: 993:
