Your links
Please read over WP:RS and WP:EL before adding your links again. The lists were composed arbitrarily and do not constitute a reliable source of information. Themfromspace (talk) 00:01, 24 February 2009 (UTC)
 * All the lists are pointing to the research groups of computational chemists and biologists who work in the field of theoretical and computational biophysics. This is an interdisciplinary field at the interface of computer simulations, structural biology and physical chemistry. Please make sure you have the appropriate expertise to be the judge! —Preceding unsigned comment added by PhCOOH (talk • contribs)
 * On Wikipedia nobody can claim expertise. What should be included is determined upon verifiable sources, which the list does not have.  As it stands, it is just that particular professor's opinion piece, which breaks Wikipedia's policy of neutral point of view. Themfromspace (talk) 00:09, 24 February 2009 (UTC)
 * what exactly do you mean by "just that particular professor's opinion piece" and what is your verifiable sources? Are universities and research institutes considered "verifiable sources"? What I have compiled is a list of computational biologists and chemists working the field of theoretical and computational biophysics. I have read their papers and I have met most of them during annual meetings in the field. —Preceding unsigned comment added by PhCOOH (talk • contribs)
 * Also, since you admitted to being the compiler of the lists, please read over WP:COI to see the proper way of editing subjects for which you have a conflict of interest. Themfromspace (talk) 00:36, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

I have taken the liberty of formatting your talk page so the discussion is linear, with responses below the point being responded to. You should also sign your comments. Themfromspace is correct. This list, as part of a grad students page, is usefull for other grad students. However it is not an appropriate link for WP. It is not a question of expertise, although I think I am an expert on part of the field. So, Welcome to wikipedia. I hope you will stay, but you will be happier if you read the guidelines and follow them. -- Bduke   (Discussion)  00:44, 24 February 2009 (UTC)
