In response to speedy deletion suggestion:
Joel Shapiro is a leading expert in his field, and a highly regarded international researcher. He has written one of the seminal books in the area of composition operators (an internationally active and well studied area of Mathematical analysis) , and discovered many of their properties himself. The original short article was written as a place holder while I (and hopefully others) fill in additional information.
I'm not an expert in Wikipedia's criteria for importance, but I know that there are other mathematicians who have made less significant contributions to similar areas whose pages are not contested. Given that this was the case, it seemed appropriate to write an article on Joel Shapiro. Sixfooteskimo (talk) 11:36, 8 February 2011 (UTC)
