Does Andrew Pyle deserve a wikipedia page? Biographies of living people must be people of some significance, and this person does not seem to have any significance. There is no citation of anything on the page. Additionally, the neutrality of the article could be debated, especially the claim that he "is an authority on the history of philosophical atomism." Who decided that? And what makes the topic he researched "ill addressed"? 82.46.92.29 (talk) 11:22, 10 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

gBooks shows subject to be a prolific author and editor, gScholar shows a significant presence (including 282 citations for one work, 181 for another). Clearly notable. Could the article use work? Yes. But it has only recently been tagged as such. 74.69.39.11 (talk) 14:15, 19 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
