Paul Bujor
[edit]- ... that Paul Bujor rose from modest beginnings to become a zoology professor, a published fiction author, a member of the Romanian Academy, and president of his country's Senate?

New enough, long enough, well referenced, neutrally written. As references are either offline or in Romanian, unable to check for close paraphrasing. All the hook refs are AGF and cited inline except the part about him being a member (should be "honorary member") of the Romanian Academy; this point needs an inline cite. QPQ done.

- Yoninah, I've added the citation. About the "honorary" thing: while some people are elected to the Academy purely as an honorific measure (usually royal or religious leaders), most honorary members actually made significant contributions in their field, but are elected quite late in life, when they're no longer able to fully participate in the Academy's workings - Bujor, for instance, was 86 at the time. So while I have no objection to adding "honorary", it's entirely possible the casual reader will miss this nuance. I leave you the choice. - Biruitorul Talk 16:06, 25 August 2015 (UTC)
