Hi, I've nominated an article you worked on, Claus Wedekind, for consideration to appear on the Main Page as part of Wikipedia:Did you know. You can see the hook for the article at Template talk:Did you know#Articles created on May 22 where you can improve it if you see fit. MeegsC | Talk 23:36, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
I'm not convinced Wedekind meets WP:PROF in terms of notability. The MHC papers were interesting, certainly, but hardly groundbreaking enough for their own article. Thoughts? Rockpocke t 00:17, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
Rockpuppet, this article is no-brainer. Wedekind has been referenced in so many books and articles that the count goes well into the 100s. His name was a redlink on several pages before I started this article. I have read about Wedekind in many books, e.g. Helen Fisher’s 2004 Why We Love – the Nature and Chemistry of Romantic Love, or more before I started this page. Wedekind is famous. He is the first scientist to show scent-based genetic mate selection preferences in humans. You are obviously biased, being that you work in the field as you say. I have never met Wedekind nor do I work in the scent industry; I just know that I have come across his name enough times (I own over 125 books on science of human mating) to know that he is encyclopedic. Furthermore, since when did we start merging names of people into articles about a person’s work? Please remove the merge tags. I could add well over 50 references to this article if you seriously think Wedekind is not notable, e.g. here's Google books search for Claus Wedekind MHC. His study was done over a dozen years ago, and it is still being written about. Thanks: -- Sadi Carnot 07:42, 19 June 2007 (UTC)
