Changes to publications section

edit

I have updated the publications, adding ISBNs, co-authors and co-editors. All publications with the exception of the online publication and the most recent publication are in the World Catalogue, but the ISBN should be sufficient. I have added two references, to Fee's dissertation and to the Strathy Corpus, now available online. I have changed one small wording to indicate that Fee was hired and not invited to be the director of the Strathy Corpus. Please note that reference 1 is a dead link and needs to be replaced.

Room for one more, thank you for your changes and I have fixed the dead link. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 02:27, 23 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

I have corrected two inaccuracies. First, Fee's dissertation is not published. It would be cited as an "unpublished PhD dissertation". It is in a repository at the University of Toronto, which I have cited (this source was not previously cited and is the best source). Second, Fee was a co-author not just on the second edition of the usage guide, but on the first, second, and new editions of the usage guide. I have changed the misleading statement.Room for one more (talk) 22:21, 23 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

I have added information about the Strathy Corpus. This is an important achievement, as it is the largest corpus of Canadian English (the other corpus, ICE-Canada, has 1 million words).Room for one more (talk) 22:35, 23 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

I have added information about the CanLit Guides. This is a significant innovation form which Fee was in large part responsible.Room for one more (talk) 22:40, 23 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

I provided a more complete description of one of the books, which includes 4 internal links.Room for one more (talk) 22:51, 23 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

I put together the references to three publications on Canadian literature to make for easier reading.Room for one more (talk) 17:29, 25 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

I corrected a slight misreading of the source concerning the Strathy Unit and supplied a link to the Unit's webpage.Room for one more (talk) 17:44, 25 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

I added Fee's research areas and removed a redundancy regarding her membership in the Royal Society (which was mentioned three times).Room for one more (talk) 22:17, 25 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
