notable faculty[edit]

We can't mention all the Stanford faculty in H&S who have wikipedia pages as it would overwhelm the article. I suggest a few parameters that must be fulfilled

must have an extended career at Stanford (not just a few years unless what he or she did during those years is very well known)
must be very notable and likely to remain notable.
a brief statement indicating why they are notable should be included

We can use this as a method of cleaning up the main Stanford University article which should contain only the instantly recognizable to an educated person unless they are essential to the main article (e.g., H. Bruce Franklin if we go into depth on the campus turmoil of the 1960s/1970s). Thoughts? --Erp (talk) 02:54, 18 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
