Did Helen start the publication of the Observer's Handbook, one of the most useful astronomical publications of all time?

Using 'Hogg' to refer to her

This article was written using the first name (Helen) to refer to this astronomer throughout the article. However, this is unusual, who would be all the time speaking about "Albert" in the Albert Einstein article? (For the article about William Herschel I can accept the exception, as this astronomer's biography is tightly bond to his sister Caroline Herschel, so the differentiation is needed). As a reference, I have followed the form used in most of Marie Curie's article, where she is referred to as Curie, and I have changed most references to Helen Sawyer Hogg to 'Hogg', using 'Helen Sawyer Hogg' when using just 'Hogg' might be confusing with her husband (as it is done in the article of Marie Curie). This fits also with the fact that, during her career, she was known mostly as 'Dr Hogg'. Eynar Oxartum (talk) 06:23, 1 August 2017 (UTC)
