Independent sources edit
This article is based entirely on sources close to (often provided by) Svante Janson, which fall short of Wikipedia standards. ~
Obviously, Svante Janson is notable and deserves an article.
EXPANDING this stub: Independent statements of the importance of Janson's work occurs in many sources, e.g. any book on probablistic combinatorics or U-statistics. Additioanl assessments of Svante Janson occur in publications, e.g. the evaluations of Swedish mathematicians chaired by Enrico Bombieri (and perhaps by the earlier one by Michael Atiyah, et alia.); a somewhat independent review was given by an external review of Uppsala Univeristy, KOF07.

- Update: I added some canonical references discussing Janson's work. Kiefer.Wolfowitz (talk) 15:40, 28 June 2010 (UTC)
- I translated some Swedish material, adding remarks, which are readily verifiable and objective: I didn't bother to cite an English description of Swedish University traditional professors (International Review of Swedish Mathematics (Bombieri); Swedish University-Department (HSV) report "Careers for Quality" 2008, I believe). Kiefer.Wolfowitz (talk) 19:02, 29 June 2010 (UTC) I provided a link to the German professor ordinarius.
