[edit] Christopher Rose

This is a blatant vanity page created by an anonymous user who is most likely Rose himself. It's part of a series of vanity articles surrounding the "ET Might Write, Not Radiate" page. Binadot 02:45, 29 July 2005 (UTC)

• Comment I guess I do not understand Wiki conventions. I created the entries (for myself and Gregory Wright) on the (mistaken?) assumption that links to authors was reasonable (see, for instance, the link to Robert Freitas which appears in the SETI article where my original edits were inserted). However, I agree that the entry was certainly "non-encyclopedic." And though the "(non-notable) professor" comment is certainly true, :) I must admit I'm a bit confused about the "(non notable) paper" comment -- the work appeared on the cover of Nature Magazine. Regardless, thank you for the education, though I must say your tone seems a tad strident (I did not realize that someone else had put up a request for deletion -- I thought *I* had mistakely tried to delete the wrong entry -- so there was no intention to subvert the wiki process).
