Great idea to make a Barry Schwartz page. His contributions to the search community are constant and outstanding!

Gushing praise isn't the basis for having a Wikipedia article. This isn't an award based on merit. To have an article, the subject must be notable. Jehochman (^Talk/_Contrib) 04:41, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

Barry's contributions to the SEO Industry make him extremely worthy of a Wikipedia page. Other than Danny Sullivan, Barry is the most noteworthy (and known) person and contributor to the industry. Pryzbilla

Barry's a smart guy, a very hard worker, and something of a "celebrity" in his particular field. However, he will probably benefit from the added humility that will come from not being the first in his group to merit a wikipedia mini-bio.SynonymousEconomist 18:31, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
