Thanks and a question
[edit]Hello Sam, Thank you for your recent kind decision to keep the Reliability theory of aging and longevity: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Reliability_theory_of_aging_and_longevity As you well know, this article was nominated for deletion by Randykitty, and there was a unanimous vote by all 6 experts to keep this article.
I have noticed that Randykitty also demonstrated a poor judgement on other occasions as well: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:L._Stephen_Coles In this discussion Ollie231213 found comments by Randykitty to be an insult and uninformed, while Blacksun1942 described them as hyperbolic and quite defamatory. I agree with them, and believe that Randykitty activities are both arrogant and ignorant, and they do more harm to Wikipedia.
I wonder whether there is any way to ban Randykitty to edit articles for the topics (aging and longevity studies) where he is ignorant? Please advise. Thank you! -- Biodemographer (talk) 02:34, 21 December 2014 (UTC)
Theory versus author notability
[edit]In other words, you do believe that the author of this theory is even more notable than the theory itself, right? So, if the Wikipedians decide that this theory is notable indeed, then would you agree that its author is notable too? -- Biodemographer (talk) 04:42, 21 December 2014 (UTC)
- Notability has been established for the theory, suggested by this author: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Reliability_theory_of_aging_and_longevity Once the theory is notable, then the same is true for its author. -- Biodemographer (talk) 20:07, 22 December 2014 (UTC)
