Vasile, I don't disagree with the information in your addition. However, it is poor English and the prose must be corrected. For example, in English one does not say "Magyars"; I know in Romanian you can say maghiarii, but in English the proper nomenclature is "ethnic Hungarians". You wrote that Kertész "is writing", but in this passage such a progressive verb tense is inappropriate, better English is "regularly writes". We don't use the word "publicized" in this sense, but rather when one is talking about a written piece the appropriate word is "published". "Severly restraint" is ungrammatical, the proper form would be "restrained". And so on. I am grateful that you added this information to the article--I spend a lot of time in Cluj and didn't know that Kertész expressed an opinion on events in this city--and I hope you'll continue to contribute. But please, understand that a native speaker may occasionally have to improve the tone of an addition. CRCulver 14:10, 26 February 2006 (UTC)
Chronological, Kertesz adressed first the petition for the separate university. In FAZ, he expressed an opinion in sustaining his petition. The article is 0.85 euro but the petion seems to be essential. Generally, it is a view on Magyar minority in Romania, a political view. -- Vasile 02:30, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
"Feeling that study opportunities for ethnic Hungarians at the city were severly curtailed" -my impression is that only the text of the petition may show exactly the nature of those "feelings". -- Vasile 00:41, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
I've removed the word "multicultural" as it is POV in this context. Since Kertesz and many others feel that it is not multicultural, we cannot just go ahead and say it is. CRCulver 02:11, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
I don't get the point of that photo of Kertész with a friend. Is the friend trying to attract attention to himself? If there is already a portrait of Kertész in the entry, then why do we need that second one? I believe the friend is not even mentioned in the article. 76.237.107.242 ( talk) 23:29, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
The quotes attributed to Kertesz and removed in this edit appear to be accurate, though I'm not so sure about the framing. Reliable source:

The Guardian obituary says "Often tempted by suicide, Kertész somehow persevered and it was not until 2003 in his novel Felszámolás (Liquidation, 2003) that he produced a hero who actually kills himself. The ending to that book was probably influenced by his recurring depression after he was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease." I have tried finding sources of when Kertész might have been diagnosed with Parkinson's. From this reference I understand that it was before 2003. However @ Christian Roess: introduced "recently been diagnosed" after the mention of 2013 hip operation. That should be rephrased I guess as it implies he was diagnosed in 2013. What say? This 2010 ref does mention Parkinson's. §§ Dharmadhyaksha§§ { Talk / Edits} 10:41, 4 April 2016 (UTC)
"In November 2014, Kertész was the subject of an interview with The New York Times." I know it's a Nobel Prize but I don't think he could made an interview 9 months after his death... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Owendassstaf ( talk • contribs) 18:47, 10 November 2023 (UTC)
edit: he died in 2016, not 2014, that's why.
