Ways to improve David Lax

[edit]

Hello, Oldgeneralben,

Welcome to Wikipedia and thanks for creating David Lax! I edit here too, under the username Ajpolino and it's nice to meet you:-)

I wanted to let you know that I have tagged the page as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process and note that:-

Thank you for your contribution! Wikipedia doesn't contain biographies of all people, but only of people who meet a set of criteria we call notability. It's not clear to me from what you have here (and a quick Google search), that David Lax meets these criteria. So please add sources that make it clear that he does. The relevant criteria are either WP:NBIO for biographies in general, or WP:NPROF for academics (meeting either is fine!). If you have questions or concerns feel free to ask at WP:TEAHOUSE. Thanks again and happy editing!

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Ajpolino}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . For broader editing help, please visit the Teahouse.

Delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.
