Here's an amusing fact... Queen Mary had an ancestor, on her Hungarian side, by the name of Maria Thoroczkay de Thoroczkó-Szent-György (1687 - 1738) (see here). I bet she must have been related to this chap. Now, which would be more difficult - confirming this, or finding some way of making it relevant enough to stick it into the Wikipedia... ;) -- Oliver P. 15:31 5 Jun 2003 (UTC)

It's interesting... At first it seemed to be a coincidence, but websites state Szent-Györgyi was from an old Transylvanian noble family, and Torockó is indeed in Transylvania. Anyway, I don't think it's particularly relevant to the article, but it's interesting. :) Alensha 22:06, 13 Feb 2005 (UTC)

[edit] V0.5 review

Albert Szent-Györgyi was nominated for the V0.5 release. However, this article is not well-referenced and is not comprehensive: there's not much on Albert Szent-Györgyi's work, for example, and the article would benefit from some restructuring so his research is not buried in his biography. The scope is also fairly limited, and I don't think the subject is sufficiently notable to warrant inclusion in V0.5. With some work, this article might make it into a later release. -- bcasterlinetalk 05:20, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
