Sorry, I know it is naff to edit your own page, but I have no idea what the Basic Perturbation Lemma is about and I could not leave that there any more.---- —Preceding unsigned comment added by PaulsonLC (talk • contribs) 14:11, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
Problems edit
I put a couple templates for this article...it's predominately (totally?) an autobiography, the cites are basically entirely things the subject authored...there's no notability established by third party sources etc...the subject has also been involved in the creation/editing of the article...subject of this article recently inserted a reference to himself in the "incompleteness theorems" article which may be a problem...being talked about there... nothing personal against this subject, may be notable, but this has to be properly established....68.48.241.158 (talk) 19:33, 9 April 2016 (UTC)
- subject seems to be "an average professor" (not that there's anything wrong with being an average professor!)via these guidelines: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability_(academics)68.48.241.158 (talk) 20:11, 9 April 2016 (UTC)
- He's not an "average professor": He's an FRS. All FRS's are notable. Therefore he is notable.
- I took the templates out again. If you look at the article history, you can see that there are only very few and mostly minor edits by the subject. It's not an autobiography. And the discussion at Wikipedia:Village_pump_(policy)#Academics...Proper.3F has demonstrated notability with respect to the current guidelines. --Stephan Schulz (talk) 14:35, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
- The What links here page can also be a useful tool to establish notability, i.e. how many broken links would deleting the page create. Markus Kuhn (talk) 19:29, 21 November 2017 (UTC)

I didn’t create my entry and my edits have mainly been to correct errors. For example, 3 months ago some anonymous user decided that I no longer teach Logic&Proof. Wrong. Lcpaulson (talk) 18:50, 19 November 2017 (UTC)
- I've reverted that edit: it seems merely a misunderstanding of temporary sabbatical cover for that course. Markus Kuhn (talk) 19:27, 21 November 2017 (UTC)
