Regarding the sentence:

  • He worked with scientists based in Poissy, France and tried to grow up a university in the town. Within a few years his aims began to be realised as medical students crowded his lectures.

This appears to be lifted from fr: wiki ->

  • Professeur, il dispensa, entre 1824 et 1840, de nombreux exposés à destination de jeunes étudiants en sciences à Poissy. Avec le maire Jean-François Senincourt, il tenta de fonder, au sein de cette ville, une académie des sciences capable de rivaliser avec de grandes universités anglaises.

... which is fine, except that we need a ref for this. A French language one will do just fine. (According to this site, there was a mayor of Poissy named Jean-François Senincourt, so that bit seems sound enough.) --Mais oui! (talk) 04:51, 19 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
