Talk:Ann Wylie

Postgraduate studies in London edit

The RSNZ 150 women source[1] says Wylie completed a PhD through the University of London, based on a personal communication, but we think this is a misunderstanding.[2] I have been unable to find a thesis for her in the University of London catalogue (not conclusive). Pending further investigation it seems best to change alma mater to University of Otago, where her MSc thesis is on record. Another editor has kindly already removed the statement about her gaining a PhD. Hopefully future sources will explore Wylie's activities in the UK more thoroughly. This one[3] says she taught at the University of Manchester. DrThneed (talk) 23:16, 12 April 2022 (UTC)Reply
