if, as an outsider, you could perhaps comment on what the article is lacking. Rest assured, I know it is far from FA and even GA status, but it would help if you would point out if the current version is confusing and what you think ought to be expanded. Unfortunately, sources on the man are unusually scarce (it took me a careful search to find out if he was imprisoned or just a suspect in his later years, and it was through sheer serendipity that I could dig up anything about the Tătărescu's education); mostly, I would like to know if the problems you see are with the way in which the current version is written or with what needs to be added. It's an ongoing work, and your input would be appreciated. Thank you.
