The result of the debate was DELETE. Not much meat here, but The Literate Engineer doesn't really sound very impressed by the article either, so there's enough to delete. -Splash 20:29, 12 September 2005 (UTC)

  • Delete per nominator
  • Weak keep. A Google search verifies that he exists, and I'm willing to give the article the benefit of doubt. Should be sourced and named better (Doctor Peter Kopittke or Peter Kopittke), though. --Apostrophe 20:21, 4 September 2005 (UTC)
    • Verification that someone exists is not a keep criterion. Zoe 20:57, September 4, 2005 (UTC)
      • I'm aware of that; I was trying to dispel any belief that it was a hoax article. --Apostrophe 21:11, 5 September 2005 (UTC)
  • Comment At the moment, I'm feeling suspicious that someone who received their PhD in 2003 and died in 2005 had time to acquire notability through their work. I realize it's possible, but I am skeptical. May have to go to the journals on this one. The Literate Engineer 23:57, 4 September 2005 (UTC)
