This person seems to be on the threshhold of notability for Wikipedia. I'm forcing the issue for three reasons: (1) there are several claims made in the article that need citations, including one about the film Proof that should be in IMDb if it's true, but isn't there; (2) Wikiquote now also has an article on this person (which has also been nominated for deletion), using the WP article to support a notability claim; and (3) to get a current "temperature" on the WP community's feelings about professor notability. I'm hoping this review will encourage interested editors to improve both articles in order to convince the respective communities with verifiable, reliable sources for the anecdotes and quotes. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 15:43, 16 March 2006 (UTC) reply
