There are very few serious, experienced tracking teachers in this country, indeed, the world. Joel Hardin is one of them. I would say one of the top two in the U.S. This alone justifies the article. Yes, this article needs improvement. That will come later as more and more people come across this article. After all, that is the point of Wikipedia, is it not? Please give this article a chance. -- Lensim 14:31, 25 June 2007 (UTC) reply

I believe this article satisfies notability on the following grounds:

1. The person has made a widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record in their specific field.

I will remove the notability tag from the page. -- Lensim 01:33, 29 June 2007 (UTC) reply
