Jay Tischfield
Whatever this is, it sure isn't an article. [ edit ] 05:19, 7 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Abstain for now. Dr. Tischfield has, apparently, authored a paper called "Loss of heterozygosity or: how I learned to stop worrying and love mitotic recombination.". Now, this is a great title. He is also the Chair in Rutgers Department of Genetics [sauce], and has apparently won some awards. I'm not sure how to vote on this guy, but at the very least it needs total cleanup.

 * It needs writing before anyone can clean it up. Like edit says, it isn't an article. Delete. TheMadBaron 07:03, 7 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Delete... I like anyone who makes Dr. Strangelove references, but ultimately I don't see any assertion of notability that merits a wiki article.--Isotope23 15:47, 7 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Delete Per nom, this is not an article. If someone makes it an article, I may change my vote. Justin Bacon 00:51, 8 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Delete I am a an academic geneticist, and I haven't heard of this guy. Every department chair at any large school will have ten titles like that (they come with big chunks of research money from the school).  He published an interestingly-titled article, but that isn't significant.  He is not up for a Lasker or a Nobel, and almost certainly never will be.  A quick check shows that many Nobel-level geneticists are not in WP, and they should be in here before this guy is: Randy Sheckman (chair of genetics at Berkeley, cloned all the secretion genes 20 years before anyone else), Richard Palmiter (invented transgenic mice), David Anderson (caltech, isolated neural stem cells) &c &c &c.  This is a vanity page.
 * While you may be right, I like to think that a somewhat-noted academic would be able to write a better article than that! Lord Bob 04:02, 8 October 2005 (UTC)
