This article is low on facts and high on awards. Can you add biographical detail such as her birthplace and family? It would also be appropriate to put all the awards in a special "Awards" section, as otherwise this reads like a series of accolades rather than an encyclopedic biography.

Yoninah Yes, I can see the problems you have addressed and do agree with you. Luckily it seems that she did an in-depth interview with her alma mater providing me with more information than before. I hope I have addressed your issues. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 21:47, 17 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
@HickoryOughtShirt?4: thank you, it does read better. I've looked around for biographical information but can't find any. Yoninah (talk) 22:28, 17 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
@Yoninah: Thank you for your edits and I can't find any personal information either. I can't even find her birthplace. I assume in order to be eligible for the RSC you have to hold Canadian citizenship but I can't even find her province or territory. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 23:18, 17 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

Thesis/dissertation

edit

I find it sad that the infobox apparently has to say "thesis". In the world in which Dr. Koopmans and I operate "dissertation" is the accepted term; "thesis" is for your Master's degree. Template:Infobox academic offers no way out, it seems. Drmies (talk) 16:12, 22 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
