This article includes a list of references, but its sources remain unclear because it has insufficient inline citations. Please help to improve this article by introducing more precise citations where appropriate. (August 2011) It only contains inline sources.

The topic of this article may not meet the notability guideline for biographies. Please help to establish notability by adding reliable, secondary sources about the topic. If notability cannot be established, the article is likely to be merged, redirected, or deleted. (August 2011) A lot of independent (also critical) sources have been mentioned.

What would you like to change about this?
Here, tell us what you would like to changed. Does the conversation need better structure? Are folks having difficulty communicating? Are they talking past each other? Stuff like that.

I think Yopie does not have enough expertise to be the judge of the article. If you want to dispute the PhD thesis you should write your own first.

How do you think we can help?
We are here to help you, but we need to know how. Sometimes mediators will look at a dispute and have no idea where to start, so please help us out. Do note that we will not "take sides" in any dispute.

Without any knowledge of the subject Yopies anyone can see that the accusations are incorrect. I would like someones opinion. i prefer not an expert but someone who is independent.
