Birth year edit

If she was born in 1838, how could she have taken a patent in 1980?--Rocknrollmancer (talk) 00:03, 19 April 2022 (UTC)Reply

That's my mistake, it should have been 1890. I just corrected it. DaffodilOcean (talk) 00:26, 19 April 2022 (UTC)Reply

WP:PUFFERY edit

I have just edited the page to remove the WP:PUFFERY from the page. The examples include these phrases: 'innovator skillset','deep knowledge','critical inventions','great potential',brilliant female engineer',and 'innovative thinker'. The article also had new additions of sentences citing blogs, which are not considered reliable sources, see WP:USERGENERATED. Hopefully future versions of the page can retain an encyclopedic tone, and stick to the known facts. DaffodilOcean (talk) 21:29, 24 April 2022 (UTC)Reply

Also added some sources after reading about it at the Teahouse. Interesting subject. Regards, Darwin Naz (talk) 02:46, 25 April 2022 (UTC)Reply

Additional info? edit

I came across a draft article on Wilcox that might have some usable information that could be incorporated in this article. You can find it at User:Nico C35/sandbox. Thanks. Liz Read! Talk! 06:35, 19 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
