really good start
editso far so good, now flesh it out, you have a great bibliography, add it in. also any honors? Ortiz Crespo (talk) 19:32, 8 March 2023 (UTC)
- maybe avoid "well known" and use he has done substantial work on. . Ortiz Crespo (talk) 19:56, 8 March 2023 (UTC)
- Confirming the revised wording on this. Fugimus (talk) 00:02, 27 March 2023 (UTC)
Fact checking
editI don't see a reference for Dr. Hadfield working at WAQ for four years--and I don't think that's true. Where did you find that info? Akoawahine (talk) 04:17, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
- also note that he retired (year) and has not been Director of PBRC for quite some time--be sure to say when, exactly, he was Director. He actually started teaching at Pomona BEFORE graduating from Stanford. Delete: Under Hadfield's research of reproduction and development, [it's repetitive].
- Hadfield's goal with his work in terrestrial snails is --change to WAS
- Thylacodes hadfieldi is a species of marine gastropod in the family Vermetidae that was described in 2007-- BY WHOM?
- In Copenhagen, he studied under Gunnar Thorson--can you find a source for that tidbit? Akoawahine (talk) 04:26, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
- Added 2013 as retirement year, and citation.
- changed wording to: "Hadfield's goal with his work in terrestrial snails was to restore the snail population..."
- added authority for T. hadfieldii
- cannot find a source (that was not co-authored by Hadfield) for studying under Gunnar Thorson in Copenhagen Fugimus (talk) 00:31, 27 March 2023 (UTC)
- The reference is linked immediately after that statement. It is mentioned in this article.
- Helen. (2005, Jul 24). Marine lab looks for new home. Honolulu Star - Bulletin Fugimus (talk) 23:45, 22 March 2023 (UTC)
- direct quote from the article: "The laboratory moved to its present building in 1972 under a state lease that runs until 2030, said laboratory director Michael Hadfield, noting it can be broken only if the property isn't being used as prescribed.
- A zoology professor, he arrived in Hawaii in 1968 and worked four years at the Waikiki Aquarium until the then-new Kewalo Marine Laboratory was finished." Fugimus (talk) 23:48, 22 March 2023 (UTC)
- That's a bit different than how you've put it. MGH was an assistant professor in Zoology at UHM and used WAQ as a lab until KML was built.
- The Star Bulletin article was by Helen Altonn (not just "Helen")--make that correction. Can you put in a direct link to the article or is it behind a fire wall? Akoawahine (talk) 00:20, 23 March 2023 (UTC)
- The one that I found was behind a paywall, but a link to the archived article: https://archives.starbulletin.com/2005/07/24/news/index10.html Fugimus (talk) 19:54, 26 March 2023 (UTC)
- Hadfield works as the director of the Kewalo Marine Laboratory He is retired (emeritus)--what years was he Director of KML? Akoawahine (talk) 00:22, 23 March 2023 (UTC)
- added the years he was director of KML. Fugimus (talk) 01:40, 27 March 2023 (UTC)
