• Keep, he has a variety of Lilac named after him. While he may not be über-famous, for a Chinese botanist from 100 years ago, he's as famous as they come ;) Sherurcij 15:56, 23 September 2005 (UTC)

• You got me there. I had wondered what botanized was supposed to mean and thought he was some railroad engineer; I did not get the connection to him being a recognized botanist. Changing my vote to keep based on the additional information (I am not a Lilac hater, btw ;-). Groeck 18:27, 23 September 2005 (UTC)

• Keep, convert all lilac haters through the power of reason. --fuddlemark (fuddle me!) 16:14, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
• Stupid lilacs... always making me sneeze... Keep and Expand with a list of the varieties of lilacs he discovered, if possible.--Isotope23 18:47, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
