it's misleading to make the second header "controversy"- it wasn't controversy about him, it's controversy he started. fix this dudes —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.163.143.130 (talk) 22:27, 15 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • I think the article should be about the controversy, not the person. If there should be an article at all. Steve Dufour (talk) 17:54, 14 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    • The person is notable per WP:PROF: He holds a named chair at a major university. He has been the subject of a write-up in Time magazine regarding the water issue. He's a MacArthur Fellow. He delivered Virginia Tech's 2008 commencement address. He's done significant work on discovering how copper water pipes develop pinhole leaks because of municipal water treatment processes, testifying before the EPA on the issue. This I found out with a 15-minute Google search. He's not just notable; he's utterly encyclopedic: this man's work directly affects the health of millions of people, because it is affecting how cities across the US maintain their water-delivery systems. And I had no idea who he was before I saw the AfD last night. I'm going to adopt this article and expand it. From there, I think we should look at the controversy article and see if it needs a rewrite, expansion, or merger. // ⌘macwhiz (talk) 15:07, 15 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
