Jean-Hippolyte Michon's Wikipedia biography is a community-edited encyclopedia entry rather than a peer-reviewed publication, useful for the plain facts of Michon coining the word graphologie and founding the Societe de Graphologie de Paris in 1871. Its strength is that these are the kind of uncontroversial biographical and institutional facts a general encyclopedia handles well. Its limit is that a claim about graphology's validity as a discipline needs a source that actually tests it, not this one.
