At 11:43 on 15 August 2012 IP 193.1.200.66 added a Notability template to this article without entering an edit summary or starting a talk page discussion:
{{
notability}}
I created the article and so I think that Dennis Jennings is notable. He lead the U.S. National Science Foundation's NSFNET project at a time when several very important decisions were made that ultimately fostered the growth of TCP/IP networking in the U.S. and around the world and set us on the path that would in less than 10 years time lead to the Internet as we know it today. He is listed in the List of Internet pioneers article following a suggestion made on that article's talk page. I believe that the references on the article establish these facts and his notability. Unless strong arguments are made to the contrary here in the next few days, I plan to remove the notability template. -- Jeff Ogden (W163) ( talk) 17:12, 15 August 2012 (UTC)
At 13:42 on 25 January 2013 IP 193.1.200.66 added a notability template to the article with an edit summary that said "Not notable enough to warrant a wikipedia entry". No additional explanation and no discussion was started about this on the talk page. As explained above I don't agree that Dennis Jennings is not notable. Unless someone objects, I will remove the notability template in a few days. -- Jeff Ogden (W163) ( talk) 13:17, 28 January 2013 (UTC)
Notability feedback A person sitting on a sub committee, that eventually lead to the internet, is not notable enough to warrant a Wikipedia page - that is his "claim to fame". I will continue to add the notability tag until such time as someone other than Jeff Ogden (W163) comments on Dennis' notability 86.46.29.131 ( talk) 15:27, 19 October 2013 (UTC)
In April 2014 Jennings was inducted into the Internet Hall of Fame. [1] -- Jeff Ogden (W163) ( talk) 05:24, 26 December 2014 (UTC)
