Notability?

I am not sure why this individual should have a Wikipedia page. Sure, he runs a popular blog that gets thousands of hits a day but there are hundreds of bloggers who get even more hits who don't have Wikipedia entries. Apart from his blog there doesn't seem to be anything notable enough about Derek Lowe to warrant an entry here. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.228.95.42 (talk) 21:17, 27 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The fact that no one has bothered to reply to this comment in 10.5 years tends to support your view. Marchino61 (talk) 03:47, 10 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I tend to disagree. In my view, Lowe is a central figure in the online chemistry community who's writing shapes a fair amount of the discussion in the field. --Adrianpip2000 (talk) 11:18, 3 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
