"Willerding is one of the leading European palaeo-ethnobotanists." This is the type of statement that should be easy to verify, please do so for this article. It's a bit thin on substance for one of the leading European palaeoethnobotanists, particularly he's introduced as only a supernumary professor and a high school teacher. He's not professor emeritus or anything? Attached to any institutes? It's a small field, but there should be sourcable information. --Blechnic (talk) 07:52, 27 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure how to verify this (I know, Wik doesn't accept statements like "I work in the field, and it's common knowledge.") In general, I don't know how to show notability for archaeologists. Thre aren't lists of top guns, especially in the sub-fields. But I think at least the notability issue should be handled by the fact that he has a festschrift dedictated to him.

That would suffice. Just add an inline citation (in place of the citation needed tag) with the name, publication data, etc., of the volume, wikilinking authors in the citation. --Blechnic (talk) 21:34, 27 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
