message: Your additions are wonderful.  I worked a little on the punctuation and syntax, just minor adjustments.
One thing I'd really like to confirm is the 1805 affair.  Almost everything in English is based on the Mary Fleming Zirin translation.

replies: text: Thanks, Cirt.  I was just mentioning to Irpen that this biography could probably make GA with some help from the Russian editors.  She wrote four novels that I don't think have ever been translated into English. DurovaCharge! 01:16, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
