Talk:Michel Bauwens
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is all very interesting, but is not notable according to WP:BIO. All the work is self-published on the internet, with no published references. The supposed 'institute' appears to be a web page. --Backface 14:24, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
I think this page should be deleted, it is not noteworthyForrestLane42 09:31, 9 December 2006 (UTC)ForrestLane42
There have been at least two votes for deletion, and no supportive evidence to save the page, there was not a long enough period of time to decide consensus, and at this point it looks like its heading for deletion. I give it a STRONG DELETE, this gentlemen has done nothing noteworthy. ForrestLane42 03:42, 16 December 2006 (UTC)ForrestLane42
This guy is, from the article, the "former editor-in-chief of the first European digital convergence magazine, the Dutch language Wave" .. that Wave magazine is more or less a dutch sister of WIRED. He also wrote a screenplay for a documentary film "TechnoCalyps", and also writes many peer-reviewed journal papers, including his essay "The Political Economy of Peer Production". Not sure if this noteworthy enough for Wikipedia standard or not, but in his field, he is of course one of a big names. -- 203.131.209.66 11:05, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

Who is 203.131.209.66? Is it goethean? Ah must be. ForrestLane42 00:45, 19 December 2006 (UTC)ForrestLane42
I standby my opinion that this page should be a STRONG DELETE, since if you take Wilber versus Bauwens, Wilber wins visability than Bauwens, he is not noteworthy for wikipedia, but the consensus is in, but I believe I am not alone in the view that this page doesn't stand up to WP:Bio. 04:11, 26 December 2006 (UTC)ForrestLane42
