Inclusion[edit]

Inclusion of notable pediatric ophthalmologists. The user who keeps deleting Drs. Calhoun, Urist, and Folk from this list has an excessively narrow and non-Wikipedian view on notability. Either that or she is unfamiliar with these doctors' accomplishments. In general, persons with accomplishments sufficient to justify their own Wikipage have been deemed as notable. I would expect that AAPOS founders, AAPOS presidents, full professors, and academics who published over 100 peer-reviewed papers are notable. Perhaps the user should look at the Wiki list of professional baseball players, porn stars, and 1930s Olympic athletes. Why should the medical profession be slighted? While Urist was not Marshall Parks, he and Jampolsky shared the stage umpteen times and considered each other equals in stature. The fact that Parks outlived Urist by 40 years should not diminish the latter's contributions.

By the way, I am not a former fellow of any of the 3 doctors in question. I believe we don't need less recognition for this specialty and its specialists, but more.
