merge?

At a first glance, it appears that a merge with Ursula Sladek might be in order, their notability seems sufficiently linked that a single article on the both of them might be more encyclopedic. But not having delved into every possible source, I'll leave that for future editors' consideration. --joe decker ^{talk to me} 19:49, 1 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Ursula Sladek won a Goldman Environmental Prize recently and so is notable in her own right. Johnfos (talk) 20:37, 1 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with that rationale and it's sourced enough. I was more asking the question of whether Michael was independently notable, and even if he was, whether most of their story was so intertwined that the biographies were better written together. I didn't immediately see a source for Michael's prize, and what news coverage I found in a quick search *only* had him included in the context of Ursula. But it sounds like you've looked at it and think two articles is a better editorial decision, and I'll accept that, I'm just passing through trying to deal with unsourced articles.
