Talk:Steve Haake

Comment from subject
From Steve Haake: I would like to help with citations and have made some suggestions below.

Regarding: "He serves as director of research for the Sheffield section of the National Centre for Sport and Exercise Medicine.[6][3]" This should be: "Between 2014 and 2016 he acted as director of research for the Sheffield section of the National Centre for Sport and Exercise Medicine.[6][3]" ref

Awards and honours: "In 2014, Haake was named as a RISE (Recognising Inspirational Scientists and Engineers) leader by the UK's Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC)" ref

Personal information: Change: "As of September 2020 his personal best time for the marathon is 3 hours and 17 minutes.[6]" to: "As of September 2020 his personal best time for the marathon is 3 hours and 15 minutes in Manchester in 2015, although the route was subsequently found to be 380 metres short.[6]" ref ref

Many thanks! Steve from Sheffield 15:47, 3 October 2020 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Stevehaake (talk • contribs)


 * Thank you for doing the right thing by commenting here, with sources, rather than editing the article yourself. I've made various changes using the information you provide. Commiserations about the Manchester Marathon time: ironic that as a sports engineer you were snookered by a technology failure. Presumably they used something rather more sophisticated to measure yesterday's London laps.
 * We didn't have any mention of RISE awards, but we have now - and I'll check the list of RISE Leaders to make sure we have Wikipedia articles on them all. Thanks. Pam  D  20:17, 5 October 2020 (UTC)
