{db|This page is a prank. I am the other one of the persons who started it. Check the IPs. Please. I am the other prankster (again, check the IPs -- they are dinamically generated, but it can be verified that they come from the same source). Another way of verifying that it really is a prank is by asking Gabriel himself (you can get his email from his website), or by noticing that Gabriel isn't actually Basque.}}

- Keep. One of only two philosophers on the List of Basques, which is not an overloaded list overall by any means. Suggests notability to his Basque home culture above that of your average philosophy professor at an American university. Don't have time to wade through the list's edit history, but the fact that the page as vfded didn't even mention he was Basque rather suggests the link from List of Basques was not link-spamming. (I've just added the Basque bit, if you're looking presently.) Samaritan 08:56, 16 Nov 2004 (UTC)

- Keep. I don't believe this is vanity. Also, the article should be updated to reflect his upcoming move to Ohio State, as reported in the Philosophical Gourmet blog run by Brian Leiter. Posiduck 03:36, 19 Nov 2004 (UTC)
- Keep. I'm almost certain that it's not vanity. Notable logician. Factitious 04:30, Nov 19, 2004 (UTC)
