[edit]

This article is about a well-known academic psychologist. It is of general interest as established precedent on wikipedia.

I don't know how to justify the source of 'he is a leading proponent of the appraisal theory of emotion' on the actual wikipedia page. It is fairly obvious since he has well over a hundred articles published in leading journals in this area, including some books that are standard in academic psychology courses. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Thomascochrane (talkcontribs) 14:55, 13 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please read through Wikipedia:Notability_(academics) for assessing the notability of this person. Also, I find that you should be careful here due to a possible conflict of interest, as both you and Klaus Scherer are listed here [1] --Berland (talk) 19:37, 24 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I am aware of the possible conflict of interest. But as I have justified above, this is not a particularly controversial subject for a wikipedia entry. I do not have the time to properly reference everything at the moment. I do not intend to be pressured into rushing it now. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Thomascochrane (talkcontribs) 21:32, 24 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]


I have now found three very reliable and independent sources to justify this page. I request that the notability tag be removed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Thomascochrane (talkcontribs) 17:02, 4 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Scherer is more than just an academic, he is a leading theorist in the field of emotions. Arnoutf (talk) 13:10, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
