Kurt Wise
Noted only for being a creationist and for teaching at a notable college -- Ruby  01:09, 19 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete insufficiently notable although he gets a few Google Scholar hits for Baraminology and some 100 Ghits for same.   Dl yo ns 493   Ta lk  01:19, 19 February 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep: If 'he' were to try and suppress my views I would holler like hell ( whoops ... A Freudian slip there!!) So why should I want to suppress his?--Aspro 01:22, 19 February 2006 (UTC)
 * I don't want to supress his views, I want a WP article about a non-notable teacher to go away. --  Ruby  02:16, 19 February 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep. He is notable enough for Richard Dawkins, perhaps the world's most prominent evolutionary theorist, to write an article about him and his views.  (See the link in the article.)  dbtfz talk 01:35, 19 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep - the Dawkins article does it. -- Jonel | Speak 03:43, 19 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Jim62sch 04:10, 19 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Notable young earth creationist, and highly notable for actually having a relevant degree. JoshuaZ 05:09, 19 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Unusual story of a creationist with a background in paleontology -- I think he's notable as a result, especially if he's written about by evolutionists. -- Samir ∙ TC  [[Image:Flag of Canada.svg|25px|  ]] 08:52, 19 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep per Samir. -- S iva1979 Talk to me  15:23, 19 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep per most other keep comments. Monicasdude 16:05, 19 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep. Notable in that many anti-creationists question the credentials of creationists.  Here's one with a degree in science from a prestigious university.  Logophile 15:27, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep He's the only person to earn a Ph.D. under Steven Jay Gould and still believe in a young age for creation. Just because he does not covet the spotlight does not make him and his accomplishments not notable.
