Parents death?
"He was the fourth of five children of Countess Mariya Tolstaya, née Raevskaya. Tolstoy's parents died when he was young, so he and his siblings were brought up by relatives" Mariya Volkonskaya died August 10, 1863. Tolstoy would of been 34 years old. [1] Never mind. The Mariya Volkonskaya page has removed the info about Tolstoy.
Awards and Recognition - there is a major street named after him
Shouldnt there be an awards and recognition section? One of the most expensive roads in South Asia is named after him. Tolstoy Rd.

Tolstoy's anti imperialist stance on the boxer rebellion

means and other missing gaps
i find this article missing a great deal, esp the wealth, economic means to show how Tolstoy who journied 800 miles to attend Kazan University and spent a lot of time in St Petersburg and Moscow , had the king like means (as movies and other novels impute to aristocracy) when only living on his 4,000 acre (with 350 serfs) relatively small, farm... and have 20,000 books in his library ... so that there is a gigantic gap (i'm not a tolstoy expert to add this info) about this needed background to show how he springs forth, recognizing that print can teach across vast areas as Russia or even Europe or whole West, ideas of educating serfs, freeing serfs , understanding how upper classes were tainted by their lifestyle to need better understanding of God, earth, community , connections. when esp his teachers, the article said , said he either could not or would not learn at kazan univ and left.... and on and on , huge gaps leaving tolstoy emergence, abilities unexplained. [those familiar , do know that the 'muse' or god intervention with 'enlightenment', massive increase in IQ is a very real documented occurrence , beyond this article; the real meaning of the mentioned 'green wand' , that glade where tolstoy and his brother felt so at home and so communed with nature / God ].... heinryck joanz hiram, of soly's green wand , AOjr24.186.56.245 (talk)@@ sprach & stanley's version of beginning; missing by 10 to the billions zeros the first spoken outpouring of 'ankh' or gods first words passion emerges to create nature's butterflies; liszt —Preceding undated comment added 11:54, 4 December 2012 (UTC)
Add link to Ilya Tolstoy's biography
As far as I can tell, all of the other children of Tolstoy who have their own pages are linked to in the list, but Ilya is not. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.232.23.154 (talk) 04:34, 12 December 2012 (UTC)
Addition to films
I feel like there should be some mention of the films based on the books he's written, and the awards they won. Thepoodlechef (talk) 23:22, 17 January 2013 (UTC)
