Text of the Letter

where is the letter? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 200.125.73.24 (talk) 03:21, 20 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Alfred Zola ?

What's this about "Alfred Zola" in the "Arguments" section, am I missing something? Wouldn't that be "Alfred Dreyfus"? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.81.107.223 (talk) 06:05, 1 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Needs "Examples" section

This article is missing a list of post-Dreyfus uses of the term. 76.231.191.217 (talk) 15:46, 23 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I tried, but all I could come up with was editorials. I would prefer that the examples be editorials which have been written about. 76.231.191.217 (talk) 16:04, 23 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I feel like "J'accuse" has entered the general lexicon. There are surely many many more examples of people using the term (I can think of a few movies and TV shows off the top of my head), but attempting to mention them all seems kind of silly. I feel the article would be improved by dropping the "Examples" section all together and making it clear that the term has entered general use. Nsfreeman (talk) 14:41, 13 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Missing reference

Regarding the item "In 2008, the term was used against the genocide in Darfur." given under Subsequent use…, the reference provided for this is:

<ref>[http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/editorial/outlook/5894017.html "World is correct to echo Zola on Darfur: 'J'accuse!'"] by Austin Bay in the ''[[Houston Chronicle]]'' on July 17, 2008 (Viewpoints, Outlook section).</ref>

That link no longer resolves. It appears only the abstract and comments remain at http://www.chron.com/disp/commnts.mpl/editorial/outlook/5894017.html. I think this is sufficient to illustrate the usage – the linked article content is not pertinent to the encyclopedic article, so I'm changing it.--Rfsmit (talk) 18:30, 21 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

J'accuse (letter) → J'Accuse — Zola's letter is the single most famous thing known by the title "J'Accuse", and it is principally known by that name. As the primary usage, it ought to be at the common title without disambiguation. Also, a side point, the image in the article makes it clear the the unusual capital-A spelling is most correct. — Gavia immer (talk) 23:23, 6 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
