Untitled

An history of her work can be find in the article of Star & Griesemer, 1989, Institutional Ecology, 'translations' and boudary objects: amateurs and professionnals in berkeley's museum of vertebrate zoology, 1907-39, in the Social Studies of Science. see : http://sss.sagepub.com/cgi/content/abstract/19/3/387 or on JSTOR. This can be interesting as a reference. Angy. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.216.174.131 (talk) 18:53, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

Joseph Grinnell

I'd like to add his name to this article, as I think it is a relevant detail, he was her chosen director of MVZ. Any objections? It will take me a few months, but I am going to expand the Joseph Grinnell stub to at least a B-class article. Cheers Marcia Wright (talk) 23:03, 5 February 2010 (UTC)

Just use an in-line citation for the source. If the source is acceptable, then would be hard to object. Thanks. W Nowicki (talk) 00:45, 6 February 2010 (UTC)

Citizenship and Nationality

Another weak page where it mentions she was born in the kingdom, yet showed her citizenship as an American. I take it not many of these wiki creators are familiar with kingdom laws or more broadly speaking international laws and constitutional laws, therefore the errors.

2020 Course Edits

I used many of the suggestions on this talk page to track down sources for this article. I have recently uploaded complete edits from my course this term and I tried to incorporate all the information that was already on the article if it held up to research to show that it was both true and relevant. If any of this information looks wrong to you or appears to need editing please help to make this article better to do so. If you see that something was removed but you'd like to add it back do that as well. I tried to make this article as holistic and representational of Alexander as possible but her elusiveness added some difficulty. The main edit I did was breaking her life details up and including a whole section on her expeditions as I felt that she would have wanted those to be the most well-known thing about her, rather than perhaps her intimate relationship with Kellogg, which she kept private. I hoped that these divisions would make the article more accessible and easier to understand and navigate for a wider audience whether they were researching or reading for fun.

Looks good! One small opportunity for improvement--there are now two "External links" sections and it looks like there is a lot of overlap. Typically, external links should be listed just once, after "further reading". Glendoremus (talk) 18:15, 23 December 2020 (UTC)

Great eye! I didn't catch that. I will review those and make sure to condense them to avoid overlap. Thanks for your help! Sbowen99 (talk) 20:02, 26 December 2020 (UTC)
