For the record, let me just say that I've gone through some reliable sources and written a decent article, properly cited and everything, on Mariana Nicolesco. There's always room for improvement, but it's concise, covers the salient facts of her life, and spares us what was there before. Dr. Poen, if you're reading this, I strongly recommend you start making any improvements by using this latest text as a basis, and the same with Radu Varia. -
