[edit]Now that I've polished the article a bit with the disclosure of the sexual harassment allegations, there are some remaining issues:
- His birthdate. BuzzFeed says he's 66, so I've put him in as a 1950 birth, but of course that could be wrong. So, if someone can find it somewhere ...
- How does he pronounce his name? With the "e" silent or not? It rhymes with "Bates" (no pun intended; i am a former student, so I know how he pronounces it)
- I have not taken the peacock language out of the section I tagged as POV because, while it does read like it was written by Katze or someone (perhaps the "Jane Roe" from the BuzzFeed article
... no, probably not, as then it would brag about his sexual prowess) working for him, it might just be others' opinions cited without attribution. We should look into whether this stuff about him being a "world leader" and "dynamic force" has been said by someone other than his PR department. Daniel Case (talk) 20:42, 30 June 2016 (UTC)
It must be “Universities Growing a Spine” day. Even PZ Myers who is an opponent claims Katze brought in millions of grant money, this probably mans he was good at his job. Brilliant researchers can have moral failings. Proxima Centauri (talk) 07:26, 4 August 2017 (UTC)
