New page created for this mathematician and author. OttRider (talk) 13:43, 9 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Nice work. Please consider adding a Bibliography section listing her books, with publisher, ISBN, year, etc. You might use {{Cite book}}, with |authormask=2, for each. See Catrin Collier for a (large!) example; or ping me if you need help. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 16:12, 9 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Why did several people other than the creator of this page edit it without fixing the glaring incorrect capitals fixed in this edit? 2001:558:6014:1C:59C9:BC1E:77E6:F1AD (talk) 05:29, 10 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Oops. Thank you. OttRider (talk) 22:05, 11 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This is a biographical article, but it contains noting about the subject's life before she earned her bachelor's degree, other than a mention of the date and place of her birth in the infobox. Surely, in this day and age, her parents' names. etc., are known... --Piledhigheranddeeper (talk) 17:15, 13 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Surely, if you can locate this information in a notable source, you can add it in.Sgerbic (talk) 23:17, 26 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
