This was my first article and therefore might not be quite correct in terms of style. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Triptropic (talk • contribs) 10 July 2013

Unsourced quote removed
I've removed the following text: ''Gray was known for her support of junior colleagues. One wrote of the time he was working in Bell Laboratories in 1957: ‘In [my calculation], I was helped by a little old lady, Marion Gray, one of Bell’s finest mathematicians at that time.’'' Currently unsourced, it was added originally with an incomplete parenthetical ref: (Schulz-DuBois, E. O., Bell Systems Technical Journal, 38, 1959.) None of the Schulz-DuBois articles in BSTJ in 1959 support the text. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Schazjmd (talk • contribs) 17:00, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
 * The quote and a more specific reference "Schulz-DuBois E 0. Paramagnetic spectra of substituted sapphires—part I: ruby. Bell Syst. Tech. J. 38:271-90, 1959" is given in a 1983 article in Current Contents (hosted at upenn.edu) . Drchriswilliams (talk) 19:04, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Excellent find, @Drchriswilliams! So it wasn't the actual 1959 paper that included the quote, it was a 1983 letter from Schulz-DuBois about the paper. I've restored the quote with the ref you found.I didn't restore Gray was known for her support of junior colleagues, because one example doesn't support the blanket statement.
