Expert attention[edit]

I cleaned up this article but since the subject is way out of my area of expertise, I think an expert on France (or perhaps Switzerland?) needs to look it over and correct any mistakes I made (which I'm sure are aplenty!). From what I gather, the subject was born in Switzerland but did most of his work in France which led to him being appointed (anointed?..I don't know) Baron. The only reference I could to obtain the full date of birth is a website (which is listed as the only ref) that is in French. I had to translate the page via Google which is why I didn't use that to reference anything else. I also re-tagged the article because it needs a bit more dimension. There's nothing about Hottinguer's personal life or death which should probably be mentioned. If I had the resources (again, there are very few in English that I could find) I would flesh the article out, but I'm hesitant to trust Google or Babelfish to translate text and I'm very hesitant to write about a person I know nothing about.
