Erdős number in introduction

Do others agree with me that having someone's Erdős number in the introduction is awkward? __meco (talk) 08:07, 20 August 2009 (UTC)

I agree. Maybe it should go in the bio section, with the names of those whose co-authorship earns him the number. On it's own it reads a bit like his shoe size, at least to someone unfamiliar with the term. Kevin (talk) 10:20, 20 August 2009 (UTC)

Please discuss reverts

The incident concerning Hewitt's ban by Misplaced Pages administrators excited worldwide comment, as is easily shown by reliable sources.
To insist that it not be noted in the article seems inexplicable.

The idea is "revert & discuss." So will revert.

Page protection

Calamity Brook, I've protected the page to prevent a BLP violation. There's consensus (see the archives and history) that this material is inappropriate. The person who drew the media's attention to the situation, and who acted as the source, was also involved in the ArbCom case in opposition to the subject, so it was an unfortunate situation that's best left behind us. The page has been calm recently, and hopefully it will stay that way. SlimVirgin
