With all the references and sources in this article and those that could easily be added, I'm astonished that anyone would suggest that Mr. Herek is not notable, according to WP's standards.
Publishing scientific books, providing expert testimony for the Supreme Court, and participating on scientific boards should be sufficient. Furthermore, I did an Internet search on his exact name and there were 15,800 hits. I believe the nature of what Mr. Herek writes about is the real reason behind the above person's suggestion that the article may need to be removed. ClydeOnline(])

Notability?

I'm skeptical that Mr. Herek meets Misplaced Pages's standards of notability. From what I see in the article, his most-documented claim to fame is his participation on editorial boards for a few scientific journals. Unless reliable sources of notability can be found, this article will probably go up for deletion.

I'm also suspicious that Lgbpsychology (talk · contribs) and Gherek (talk · contribs) might be Mr. Herek. If this is the case, please read WP:AUTO. Thanks! -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 15:09, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
