First accent
[edit]A Polish academic article I've read here gives the date 1962 for the first ascent (and it gives no names for who did it). This article on en wiki has no reference for the 1958 date; pl wiki article also gives 1958 and references [1]. @Jo-Jo Eumerus, what do you think?

- Hmm, this source givs 1958. How much would Polish climbers be familiar with Argentine climbing efforts? It's possible that the Poles weren't aware of the Argentine (?) attempt. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 09:55, 8 August 2023 (UTC)
- American Alpine Journal seems reliable, thanks. It's the 1962 issue, I wonder if there's a copypaste error in the Polish journal... Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 10:46, 8 August 2023 (UTC)
Name
[edit]Regarding "The Polish expedition referred to the mountain as Innominata ("Unnamed")". According to the Polish source I read, the Polishe expedition referred to it as "Cerro N". N could stand for Polish word for unnamed (nienazwany) but that's OR. For now I've tagged that part of the sentence as needing a citation.
