What about using {{r|Marie Curie||1903: }}? This would give

1903: Marie Curie [r]: (1867-1934), Polish-French physicist (Nobel Prize in 1903) and chemist (Nobel Prize in 1911), famous for her work on radioactivity. [e]

But since the year is invariably also stated in the definition, we might as well leave it out in the front column, just use it for ordering:

{{r|Marie Curie||}} would give

Marie Curie [r]: (1867-1934), Polish-French physicist (Nobel Prize in 1903) and chemist (Nobel Prize in 1911), famous for her work on radioactivity. [e]
