Fiona Ross article
Hi, as it cites you I felt I should let you know I've recently finished an article on Professor Fiona Ross. Let me know if you think it needs improvements or corrections! Blythwood (talk) 18:11, 2 July 2019 (UTC)


 * Hi, and thanks for raising this with me. This is a good start, but there is one error and some room for improvement. Fiona worked for Linotype-Paul Ltd., which was a UK company, not the US Mergenthaler Linotype Corporation. During her employment the name of the company changed again a couple of times to Linotype Ltd. and Linotype-Hell AG, if I recall correctly. Useful improvements could be lists of publications and typefaces – the latter is significantly more difficult to achieve because in many cases she would have consulted, but not designed type herself. I hope that helps for the moment, I'm afraid I don't have the time to edit this myself at the moment. Titus Nemeth (talk) 09:54, 3 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Good point, we don't have articles for the separate Linotype branches, I'm afraid. I hope what I've written is a clear enough simplification. I'm not a linguist, so I don't feel up to expanding the article myself on lists of types she's designed. Publications are listed very fully on her faculty website, and this for me is far better than trying to put a bibliography on Wikipedia-they always end up totally unbalancing the article and way out of date.
