[edit] Further Additions

I have added to my previous improvements of the article by creating a Works section, and adding a few other details which I got from the French and Romanian versions of the article. I have also added an infobox. Hope that's ok with whoever manages this article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.68.73.145 (talk) 16:10, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

Right... I see the changes have been automatically reverted. That's too bad. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.68.73.145 (talk) 16:18, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
I believe that revert was in error. I restored the changes. Nice job! DBaba (talk) 16:31, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
Thanks! A question: Should the real name in the infobox be his birth name i.e. Iosif Hechter with Mihail Sebastian as his pseudonym, or should the latter be in fact the real name? I'm not certain if he actually legally changed his name from I.H to M.S, so I went with the first option. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.68.73.145 (talk) 16:35, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
I think it's correct as it stands. See, for example, Mark Twain. DBaba (talk) 16:39, 10 January 2008 (UTC)


Journal/Diary

Shouldn't the Romanian word "Jurnal" be translated "Diary" instead of "Journal"? Are there English translations of his works? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.242.109.184 (talk) 07:08, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

The "Jurnal" has indeed been translated into English as "Journal 1935-1944: The Fascist Years" —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.68.73.150 (talk) 17:39, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
