Talk:Elizabeth Whelan

[Untitled]
Hello all,

I am planning on doing a rewrite of this page. I'll keep anything worth keeping, but there's a lot that should be added so I'm going to reword a lot, probably. If anyone has anything to contribute, please post it here.

Thanks, Geneocide (talk) 01:15, 19 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Look forward to reading what you come up with.Sgerbic (talk) 02:52, 19 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Um, everything that is in the present article is worth keeping, as it is sourced with 1st tier archival publications. Please add new, relevant content or rearrange what's there, but please do not delete any of the present content or sources. Thanks, Agricola44 (talk) 04:20, 19 January 2015 (UTC).
 * I'm done. I think you'll be satisfied Agricola44. I kept much of what was present, especially if it was sourced. Some of it got moved around a bit. Issues I didn't resolve:
 * How many books she published. The New York Times says 23 and the Washington Post says 27, so I settled for "more than 20". Regardless I couldn't find them all listed anywhere.
 * I feel my "Criticism" section is a little short. This is partly because most criticism of Whelan might be better leveled at the ACSH, so it's hard to tell which page it belongs on. It is also because the criticism is often poorly sourced. It is easy to find criticizing quotes, but not an original source of such quotes. I also heard tale of some of Whelan's responses to critics, but similarly couldn't find them well sourced. I would have liked to include them, otherwise.
 * Miscellaneous basic info. Date of her wedding, high school attended, hobbies, etc.

Links to the sceptic movement.
Many of ACSHs scientific advisors spread ACSHs views in the sceptical movement. S Barrett and S. Novella to mention only two them. Maybe some can give a complete list to this article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.112.192.165 (talk) 10:45, 25 May 2015 (UTC)

Articles
Whelan’s articles in professional and “lay” publications are included in one large number. How many peer reviewed articles did she publish? Nicmart (talk) 05:39, 7 August 2021 (UTC)

Bias
This is an incredibly biased and unfair entry. It's totally unworthy of Wikipedia. Just for example, there is in fact no evidence that Love Canal caused birth defects, but the article makes it look like Whelan was making it up. I have no status here, so I know any changes I would to make would just be undone, but whomever is in charge of this article should be ashamed. 2600:4040:4523:F200:F4EF:A339:44F2:EFF5 (talk) 23:12, 12 February 2023 (UTC)
 * You will need to find reliable sources saying that she was right. Your own opinion about it does not matter. --Hob Gadling (talk) 07:12, 13 February 2023 (UTC)
