 * Keep (I changed my mind) Delete Look at the Talk:J. L. Austin's High-importance on the WikiProject_Philosophy's importance scale. Therefore you can see Austin is one of the most important philosophers . Why? Because of his discovery of speech acts, which have been discovered in fact ( as proved in 2011 Igor Ž. Žagar book ) much earlier by a notable Slovene linguist Stanislav Škrabec. If this is not notable, then what is? --DancingPhilosopher (talk) 09:18, 26 March 2012 (UTC) DancingPhilosopher my talk 14:40, 26 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment First a technical detail: apparently you have formatted your automatic signature in such a way that it is not linked. I'd recommend you change that, if people want to contact you, it is very inconvenient if (at least) your talk page is not linked. As for the rest of your comment above: whatever priority score a Wikiproject gives to an article has no bearing whatsoever on the notability of the subject of the article. (Note that any editor can give such a score, even the article creator). The article on Zagar has not a single reference apart from his homepage. If he is indeed as notable as you assert, it should be easy to find independent reliable sources to demonstrate that he meets WP:PROF and/or WP:GNG. --Guillaume2303 (talk) 10:09, 26 March 2012 (UTC)


 * Stanislav Škrabec, the discoverer, surely is notable. Igor Ž. Žagar is not, at least not according to what has been presented until now. Please, demonstrate with independent reliable sources that Žagar's research has made significant impact in their scholarly discipline. --Eleassar my talk 11:05, 26 March 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete as failing WP:GNG, unless substantial reliable sources can be found that cover the subject in depth. If new sources are added to the article, ping my talk page and I'll take another look. Stuartyeates (talk) 05:00, 1 April 2012 (UTC)
