Notability tag

[edit]

I put the notability tag on this page. I'm unsure what makes Mr. Woodward notable. Was it the training method? The article does not make this clear, so it just reads like a person who made non-notable contributions to society. tedder (talk) 06:27, 10 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I removed the notability tag. Notability is really about availability of information from non-primary sources, and this fellow has biographies in Appletons' and the Dictionary of American Biography, which I think are sufficient on that score. I copied a lead from Wikisource, and Appletons' talks him up a bit, and between those the contribution which led to his notability is clearer I think.
