Contested deletion[edit]
This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because the person in question is author of fundamental texbooks on category theory. These are listed as such in the References-section of the entry Category theory. So it seems only natural to then also have an entry for the author.
I have now added a sentence at the very beginning trying to make this clearer. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Urs Schreiber (talk • contribs) 18:39, 15 February 2012 (UTC)
No more living person[edit]
So, he is dead already 2.5 years, and still, this is BLP?
Also, the site "AbstractMath.org" is probably dead, too. But we still have a partial copy archived. Boris Tsirelson (talk) 21:01, 20 November 2019 (UTC)
