This needs a serious edit from someone not connected to the subject! Is he making his students maintain this? This bio is longer than Merton's-one of the most important personalities in sociology. It's also longer than Don Tapscott's-the researcher from Toronto who really is the most public figure in internet studies.
hmm, nope, there doesn't seem to be any self promotion there, just more or less the documentable history of one individual. please come back when you have a login name, k-tx-bai. if it was of course, i'd be right there with you.-- Buridan ( talk) 22:12, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
<Redacted per WP:OUTING.> please refer to WP:COI, specifically the part about close relationships before defending the actions of Bellagio99 who also needs to read WP:COI, <Redacted per WP:OUTING.> MultimediaGuru ( talk) 15:42, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
Thank you for your interest in this. I disagree with your behavior and your conclusions. Lists of awards and key ideas, documented with refs, are not self-promotional. The article is carefully documented, and went through Administrative scrutiny in December. The version that existed until yesterday was approved then by an admin. However, more documentation will be added by third parties. It would be appropriate for you to become a registered user, so that your edit history were apparent. One WP editor has a possible vendetta against Wellman. Be well. Bellagio99 ( talk) 16:21, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
I just deleted a comment, by an unregistered user with almost no Wikipedia experience, that violates Wikipedia Privacy principles for editors. An honest mistake for a newcomer. Bellagio99 ( talk) 14:11, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

Many of the references in this article are to websites either managed by Wellman or organizations he is connected to. Should we question the reliability of these? -- MultimediaGuru ( talk) 17:24, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

There is nothing on the referenced Website that indicates Wellman's Erdos number is 3. Who are the co-authors that lead to Erdos?
I second (or third, or fourth) the remark that this article is absurdly promotional and needs extensive revision by someone who is not connected to the subject. The article's past editors should refer to WP:COI, and expert editors who review the article should be skeptical of the neutrality of the article's routine editors. This article's current state is a travesty in view of Wikipedia's policies on neutrality. Readers cannot and should not rely on it to provide NPOV information on the subject.

If "ICT" is used for Information Communication Technology, that term does not appear in the text nor is the acronym ever identified. The acronym first appears in the TOC following text which actually refers to "Communication and Information Technologies". ( style guide: "an acronym should be written out in full the first time it is used on a page, followed by the abbreviation in parentheses.") azwaldo ( talk) 17:00, 5 January 2013 (UTC)
