This article is clearly misnamed. Most of the people on this list are not 'scientists' on a normal definition of the word. I would suggest this article be moved to List of Austrian intellectuals. mg e kelly 08:38, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
Victor Frankl is listed as a physician, while he was much more of a psychologist (even though he did graduate as a medical doctor and psychiatrist). However, what Mr. Frankl is most known for is a form of psychotherapy called "logotherapy" which makes him more of a psychologist then a physician.
Why is the inventor Victor Schauberger missing from this list? Victor Schauberger discovered the free energy and anti-gravity properties of vortex motion and was known as the 'wizard of water". He set icy water into spin and from this form of vortex motion he constructed a free energy, anti-gravity turbine.
To my knowledge, Moritz Schlick is born in Germany and this is also true for his nationality. I believe this article should make its intent clearer: is Schlick in the list because he worked for a time in Austria, because he died in Austria...?
I believe this list should also contain persons who are born in Austria or who received Austrian citizenship later in their life. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.152.50.101 ( talk) 09:07, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
I'm sorry, but correcting the commonly accepted inventor/inventors of the sewing machine is not vandalism. This is absolutely ridiculous. Stop using javascript and read what you revert once in a while. 24.175.72.249 ( talk) 14:30, 1 November 2008 (UTC)
Gregor Mendel was czech and NOT austrian! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.224.231.82 ( talk) 13:54, 1 February 2009 (UTC)
In the section there are too many non-austrian scientists, I've removed some notable examples (Negrelli, Mendel, Rizucka, Tesla) but there are still many others. People who born in the empire of Austria (but not in the current teritory of Austria) can not be considered austrian since the meaning of "austrian empire" is very different than "Austria". -- Moscone ( talk) 11:33, 29 June 2011 (UTC)
