Article work[edit]

@Coffeeandcrumbs: Do you think you would have time to work on this? I am helping others with Katherine Johnson right now, and Mary Jackson is already a GA. Maybe others from WiR would be interested? This article is much less developed than those others. Kees08 (Talk) 18:10, 27 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Kees08, I just ordered a few books to help with this and other women in the group. I will help next week when my books arrive. --- C&C (Coffeeandcrumbs) 19:15, 27 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Great news, thank you! Kees08 (Talk) 20:02, 27 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Expanding the Legacy[edit]

This Wikipedia page has a lot of information that looks from the surface to be factual. One thing that stood out to me was the “Legacy” section of the page. Vaughan is a notable historical figure, and all of the work of her legacy on this page only dates back to 2016. Given her long-lived life (98 years old), I think more information can be written about Vaughan's legacy in the areas she worked in and the people around her.

Interesting point about the legacy section--that seems like a good area for future contributions. Rhizomesandranch (talk) 15:17, 31 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
