With Wikipedia's credibility always at stake, I wonder does this page meet the WP:PROF (notability of academics as measured by their academic achievements), or is it merely a vanity project?

You have a point - I don't think this particular academic meets the notability requirements.Stimpster 17:47, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

It was published in a peer-reviewed journal (the same one the original article was in)? Why is it inaccurate? -3mta3 (talk) 12:00, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
