[edit] Kate Robson-Brown
The article doesn't seem to meet WP:PROF requirements. I couldn't find any books of general interest or widely-used textbooks written by Dr. Robson-Brown, nor could I find evidence that she has been quoted in any major publications. None of the links provided in the article establish her as particularly noteworthy: the Organisations section merely list groups with which she is affiliated (it's not surprising that a professor would be a member of such groups, and indeed dozens of others are listed alongside her), and the links under Reference Works lead to 1) a book review written by the professor, 2) a site, listed twice, through which a collection of papers she co-edited is sold, 3) a review of a conference which she attended, 4) the schedule for a "mini-conference" at which she spoke, and 5) a bibliography in which one paper which she co-authored is listed along with several hundred others. The main author of the article has been banned indefinitely for trolling, but given his eagerness to prove the notability of another person, I think that if there were something particularly noteworthy about Dr. Robson-Brown, he would have found it. - Tapir Terrific 22:43, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

- Comment For what it is worth, this may have been just another attempt to back up Celtic toe and Phyllis Jackson based on the following remark from the article creator: I'll post Dr Kate Robson-Browns response to my inquiry about phillis jackson's work here...

- Delete - cursory research seems to show that she is no more noteworthy than any of the hundreds of thousands of other scientists and archeologists around the globe, 99% of whom do not have Wikipedia entries Mammal4 09:53, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
