Untitled[edit]

i wish to re-nominate this page for deletion. it was nominated for deletion once before and i have read the debate on keep or delete. i found the reasons for keeping it to be weak and unconvincing. thus, i submit it be deleted. specifically, dr. meredith jung-en woo is not, by the academic standards of her field, a prolific writer or a central thinker. as an example, the koreanist bruce cumings (to whom she is married) has over 20 books. his contributions to the field of korean studies reshaped its issues and assumptions, particularly those surrounding the korean civil war. today, NO SCHOLAR wishing to research the korean civil war would be taken seriously unless they first addressed the arguements raised by bruce cumings. THAT is noteworthy among academics. dr. meredith jung-en woo is a very good scholar and has authored some very good works, but nothing about her record makes her exceptional in the field of korean studies. her research, while important in its own way, is not commonly thought of as being central to the field. a couple-three books are a very fine accomplishment, but among scholars, it is not exceptional. i know of a many other scholars whose records would warrent a page before her. next, her accomplishments such as appearing in the new york times are neither exceptionally noteworthy or overly numerous. i argue that for an academic to appear in wikipedia that person needs to be truely exceptional and to achievements that place him or her far above their peers and colleagues. wikipedia needs to have high standards in this area. in short, this seems more of a "vanity" page than a page dedicated to an exceptional scholar whose ideas have reworked or reshaped scholarship in their field. as such, i ask that you reopen the debate to delete the page.

Nomination for Deletion[edit]

Any tenured political science professor at the University of Michigan has a credential equal or superior to Meredith Woo. I respect her work, but she is not a prominent scholar worthy of a page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 141.213.139.91 (talk) 03:58, 16 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Statements on parentage[edit]

Seems like a few contributors want to discuss Dr Woo's parentage here. I would remind everyone that this is a bio page of a living person, and as such all additions should come with citations. If the information about her parentage comes from reliable sources then cite it; otherwise it stays out. Tjarrett (talk) 13:50, 27 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
