Hi. I readily agree that
Peter Fisher (physician) is a very long way from B-class, however I strongly disagree with the wording in the templates you have added.
"This article needs reorganization" - The article appears to have a quite good structure. What needs reorganising?
"to meet Wikipedia's quality standards" - What standards does it not meet?
"There is good information here" - Interesting way to express it.
"but it is poorly organized" - Disagree.
"This biographical article is written like a resume." - Really? I presume this is referring to the bullet-point "just the facts" style of presentation? (Yes, a prose style of presentation would be more pleasant.)
"Please help improve it by revising it to be neutral and encyclopedic." - It IS neutral, and although the definition of "encyclopedic" is rather vague, I imagine that the current article could satisfy at least some definitions.
Yes, the article can be improved, but neither neutrality nor "unencyclopedic-ness" (is that a word?) are the issues that need addressing.
Please find more appropriate templates.

Regarding the Gillman case, sorry, it wasn't you I was directing that comment at. It was the anonymous editor. I'll try and fix the post if it's wrongly formatted.
Despite Douglas Keenan categorically stating that he is not the one vandalising the page, I think it probably is, and that he's behind most or all of the anonymous edits/posts and is FlagrantUserName, irbteam, etc etc. He has some typical preoccupations, one of which is the Gillman case, which he claims to have personally instigated, even though I can't see how. If it is him, he was originally using an ISP close to his home address, but has since arranged to use one in the Netherlands. I was just hinting that this new identity seems to have a significant preoccupation.
I should stress that I don't have any personal involvement in any of this - don't know Keenan or Wang or anyone in the case and am not a scientist or academic. I'm a software developer in Melbourne Australia. I was annoyed at the way the Wang case was plastered all over the denialist blogosphere, and just happened to search on Wang's name here out of curiosity. I saw something that looked like obvious abuse, and tried to fix it.
Thanks for your support. I don't know if mediation is going to help. You can't mediate with anonymous users and trolls, and I doubt that anyone else will sign in on the mediation page. I only asked for it because stronger remedies seemed to indicate that you needed to take that course first. Unfortunately, I'm a very inexperienced Wikipedia editor.

Hello. A newspaper editorial is not a reliable source. I checked Google News, and none of the three hits for Sharpton and "so-called pirates" come from reliable sources. Until a news article in a reliable source picks up the story, I don't think we can include it in the biography of a living person. — Malik Shabazz ( talk · contribs) 22:14, 19 April 2009 (UTC)
For every category you create, you should specify parent categories to which it belongs. In the case of a category like this one, parent categories are provided automatically when you include a {{ Sockpuppet category}} template. I've added the template.

Please read Wikipedia:Merge and delete. In short: when mergers are done, the relevant edit history needs to be retained so anyone who wants to find out, can look up who edited what. It is hardcoded into WP:MERGE policy. Unless only one person edited the article in question and a merge can be done by mentioning the relevant paper trail info in the edit summary of the merging edit, deleting the edit history would violate the GFDL (and the subsequent license if it is adopted) - Mgm| (talk) 09:58, 1 May 2009 (UTC)

Every day hundreds of articles are deleted, many rightfully so. But many concern notable subjects and are poorly written, ergo fixable and should not be deleted.
