::I think that the problem all along has been that this article requires some BLP-ish information. The whole Prof. Yang thing, even if it is true, is a side-show to the issue of whether the work of the Bogdanovs is authentic nonsense at the level of Sokal. This is never demonstrated. If the brothers stooped to creating Yang, well then, maybe it was simply a sad attempt to protect that reputation with the media. It deserves a reference, but not much of one. It is about as notable as "maybe they edited their Wikipedia biography."
