Hi there,

I have just added an infobox and some other details to Michelle Simmons' entry. Please take a moment to review my edit[1]. If necessary, add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it. I made the following changes:

  • Added infobox with the following information: name, image, birth date, residence, fields, workplaces, awards, education, spouse, children
  • Added external link: Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence for Quantum Computation and Communication Technology
  • Added categories: Quantum physicists, Female scientists, Female physicists

When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true to let others know.

Alleged controversy

edit

The article previously said that Simmons

"attracted controversy for having referred to the lowering of standards in physics education as "feminisation" of physics.[1]

But that cited article does not imply or suggest she attracted controversy. She may have, but I don't see it in that article. Also, the "feminisation" is referring to making physics in school more "girl friendly", which is what she was attacking.Improbable keeler (talk) 12:10, 27 January 2018 (UTC)Reply

New Scientist interview

edit

Rather than start a new External links section, I'd like to point regular editors of this article to an interview in New Scientist dated 27 October 2018, pages 42 & 43. It is probably available online. I'm not watching this page, so if you want to reply to me, please do so on my talk page. Cheers, Tony Holkham (Talk) 00:28, 4 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
