828:, there is no reason to include this complete list of all her publications. As not a single one of these articles has any sign of notability, a partial list is not justified either. My removal of the list was reverted twice, once by someone who (erroneously) seemed to think that it had been done by mistake (right, with an edit summary explaining the removal?) and once by an editor claiming that it was vandalism. You may disagree with the removal (in which case you should turn to the talk page and discuss things here), but vandalism is something else entirely. Unless someone comes up with a good reason to keep this section, I will remove it again tomorrow. Thanks. -- 335: 311: 279: 700: 679: 391: 564: 423: 1252: 103: 217: 193: 867:, but I understand from what you write that this now has been superseded. Anyway, we never include a complete bibliography for any scientist, but just a few notable ones (generally 3-5). These publications have gone unnoticed. They are mentioned in an earlier section ("Tamm has published in scientific journals"). I see no reason to list them here, they can easily be found in the references given. -- 454: 49: 162: 21: 227: 843:
Apart from exceptional cases such as blatant libel or copyright violation, neither of which apply here, removal of a significant section from an article should be done only after discussion on the talk page. The discussion should be allowed to run for a minimum of seven days to allow for input from

It is normal for an article about a person to list some or all of their published works, if there are any, whether or not those works are individually notable. I strongly oppose removal of this list of publications, which I consider to contribute significantly to the readers' understanding of the

The first reversal had an edit summary that obviously indicated this person was mistaken about why the deletion was done. The second reversal was by someone who was upset about a tag placed on the French version of this article, followed me here, and then marked my edits as vandalism because there

The guidelines seem quite sensible to me. If a change seems like an obvious, uncontroversial improvement, go ahead and make it. But cutting out large chunks of content may be assumed to be controversial. After two reverted attempts, removing the list of publications is clearly controversial. So

was a typo in them (see the talk page -and its history- of that editor). I can't find that serious reversals of a well-argued edit. Anyway, we're on the talk page now and I'd like to hear some reason why the arguments that I gave above do not apply here and we should keep this stuff. --

Actually, for academics it is not "normal ... to list some or all of their published works". Publishing is what academics do and even non-notable academics will often have dozens of publications. We don't give complete lists of publications even for Nobel winners. See, for example,

Wow! That's a lot of policy here that I've never even heard of! Perhaps for my education, you can provide me with some links to the appropriate guidelines that stipulate this procedure should be followed? I just went by

Far as I can see, this whole story started with the photo, which became a featured photo on Commons and then people created an article for this person. Notability, I think, is borderline at best. It sure fails

I think that this is a borderline keep for now. I looked through Google and found one Estonian reference to this scientist. I would be concerned if more sources were not added at a future date.
