Matthew Sellitto

No Google hits for "Matthew Sellitto" +CERN. In fact, most of the hits are for a 9/11 victim. Rick K 22:37, Nov 12, 2004 (UTC)

Then it's probably not him, then. CERN's staff changes often, so there's not much point in creating a listing of all of them, either. Delete. Now, when he actually builds that reactor, I think we can consider an article. For now, he's small potatoes. Inky 02:19, 13 Nov 2004 (UTC)
Delete: If there is/was a CERN guy, then he's unpublished or not published where Google can find him. Without verification within the article, this is unverifiable. Geogre 02:40, 13 Nov 2004 (UTC)
Keep. anthony 警告 20:42, 17 Nov 2004 (UTC)
- Sorry, anthony, you have to do better than that. There is no proof that this person even exists. Even if the article gave some indication of his notability, there is no way to verify that he is a real person. RickK 00:38, Nov 18, 2004 (UTC)
  - I've moved the non-verifiable information to the talk page and created a stub on the person who worked for Cantor Fitzgerald. anthony 警告 01:32, 18 Nov 2004 (UTC)
    - Then transwiki to the memorial page and delete. RickK 20:47, Nov 18, 2004 (UTC)
      - My vote is to keep it here. No transwiki. No delete. anthony 警告 22:06, 18 Nov 2004 (UTC)
Still Delete: non-notable, however sad the circumstances. (Should this article be moved to a section of "In Memoriam: September 11, 2001"?) Timberline 23:10, 17 Nov 2004 (UTC)
Delete. Gamaliel 01:36, 18 Nov 2004 (UTC)

The following could not be verified. Please do not readd it without some sort of reference:

Dr. Matthew Sellitto is a well known electrical engineer and physicist who has dedicated most of his career into developing an matter-anti-matter reactor. He started working on it in the late 1980s and with a partnership with CERN, a research company in Sweeden, hopes to create the first reactor of this kind somewhere between 2015-2025.
Dr. Matthew Sellitto hold a Bachelor of Science degree in electrical engineering from Northeastern University in Boston and a masters and doctorate degree in physics from MIT. He resides today in Medway, MA with his wife and 2 children.
