 * Delete. He was born in 1959 and got his Ph.D. in 1962?  Either he's truly notable or that is a typo.  I'm betting it's a typo.  --Stan 4.246.117.48 21:27, 11 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment: I don't think this was vanity, the original author appears to just be a vandal, and the original revision was clearly not of factual accuracy. I've removed that and replaced it with some verifiable info from the OSU website.  Joe D (t) 21:31, 11 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Do we need entires for all of the staff of all universities? He doesn't appear to be notable. Orange Goblin 21:34, 11 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Hence my abstention for now. Joe D (t) 21:44, 11 May 2005 (UTC)


 * Unless he's more important than your typical academic, I'd say delete. Isomorphic 21:36, 11 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Not all professors are eligible to a mention in an encyclopedia and this one seems to be under the bar. jni 04:31, 12 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. I can't find any proof that he's published that much (ten hits on Web of Knowledge - I personally get nine, and there's no way I warrant an article). The university biography says nothing. Although Ohio State isn't a bad university, if we can't find anything more about this chap, there isn't much point having an article. Average Earthman 08:25, 12 May 2005 (UTC)
