Louis Witten
Unless there's a lot more to say about him, I vote for deletion. Deb 17:42, 4 May 2005 (UTC)


 * Comment: I've added some more. Not sure whether it's enough to make him notable, but I think so. No vote yet. &mdash;msh210 17:54, 4 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. More-notable-than-average professor-physicist. A proceedings was published in his honor, after all.  &mdash;msh210 03:09, 5 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep according to Msh's assessment. Kappa 09:31, 5 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep and expand. Seems to have had a fairly lengthy career and having a proceedings named after you is some evidence of notability within the profession. Capitalistroadster 09:55, 5 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep Jeremy P Lewis
 * This is JPL's 2nd edit. Seems authentic, though.  &mdash;msh210 02:20, 6 May 2005 (UTC). (To JPL: Don't be offended by this analysis. Newbies to Wikipedia often have their votes discounted simply because one doesn't know whether they're sock puppets. However, as I just wrote, you seem "authentic" &mdash; not like a sock puppet. (This is true both because your 1st edit &mdash; about wholism &mdash; seems well-reasoned and because this VFD discussion is not controversial.)   &mdash;msh210 02:20, 6 May 2005 (UTC))
