Hi, I restructured that list, hope that there will be some additions (for example, their is no female sociologist on the list at the moment!, Chicago school is missing a bit, what about Wallerstein, ...). Also I hope my mixing of formal sociologists and not-sociolgists with great influence is okay (I did that because it's often difficult to decide in which category a person falls). The only problematic cases I see are Freud und Saussure. It would be cool if people would add their famous sociologists onto the list, even if there is no article at the moment, so that this list can act also as an demand-page for articles about sociologists. -- till we *) 21:06 20 Jul 2003 (UTC)
hi, i notice, that a large segment of sociologists are missing from asian and african countries. these sociologists and in particular have contributed lot for the development of sociology at large. may be this would help in understanding the development of sociology in general.
- Maybe it shows mainly the western-bias of Wikipedia and/or sociology. I must admit that I as a sociologist only know a very limited number of Asian and African sociologists and don't feel able to decide if they are important and influential or not. So feel free to add to the list! (And to the according entries) -- till we *) 12:53, 10 Feb 2004 (UTC)
I reverted the change between F. Tönnies and M. Weber as German founders of sociology, in the end naming both only as German sociologists, because I don't think this list is the right place to discuss wheter one or the other was the real founder of sociology in Germany. -- till we *) 10:37, 15 Apr 2004 (UTC)
No question, Toennies made it (1887 "Gemeinschaft and Gesellschaft".
Pareto was first of all sociologist? Why not say so?

[edit] Nationalities
Why using American, French or Polish as nationalties but Castells is "Catalan"? He's Spanish. If you want to use local or regional identities, use them with every one.
[edit] Cardoso
I've added Fernando Henrique Cardoso to the list of noted sociologists. I hope you don't mind. 161.24.19.82 14:41, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Dale Rose
was just added with the description "deepest think that ever walked the earth" (or something like that). Obviously I removed that description, but he is a sociologist (http://artsci.usfca.edu/servlet/ShowEmployee?empID=563). I don't know if he's notable enough to be included, if someone does then please advise. At the moment I've left him in. --User24 18:42, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Thomas J Scheff
Is he notable enough? I'm a big fan, so I may not be objective here. Deepsoulstarfish 03:08, 18 February 2007 (UTC)—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Deepsoulstarfish (talk • contribs) 03:07, 18 February 2007 (UTC).
