I think a criteria should be that they have a Wikipedia page. Otherwize this would just fill up with thousands of non-notable Paleontologists from universities around the world. --Harizotoh9 (talk) 16:02, 15 April 2015 (UTC)Reply
I don't think there even are thousands of paleontologists. And besides, a lot of notable paleontologists don't have articles yet. Abyssal (talk) 17:42, 15 April 2015 (UTC)Reply
Then make the articles then. --Harizotoh9 (talk) 22:01, 15 April 2015 (UTC)Reply
Currently I've been working to fill it with everyone on Wikipedia, but the coverage of notable paleontologists on Wikipedia at the moment is actually pretty poor. I don't think any criteria for inclusion are really necessary right now, but if the list gets out of hand or completely unusable then we could have something.
