Have added short, factual temporary page with full list of author's publications and links to other relevant Wikipedia entries.

Temporary page updated, expanded, and set to main page. Evolver 01:32, 7 September 2005 (UTC)

Have added POV tag for now. The page is *very* complimentary and glosses over the fact that many of Cavalier-Smith's claims are not widely accepted. I think it's fine to include positive summaries of accomplishments, but this page is downright sentimental at present.

Revised to possible copyright problems. This is a simple verbatim replication of his International Prize for Biology write-up from the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science. This makes it decidedly NOT neutral AND possibly a copyright issue.
