Leona Woods

5x expanded by Hawkeye7 (talk). Self nominated at 11:21, 16 April 2013 (UTC).

  • Symbol question.svg Several typos noted and fixed. 5x expansion met within time limit, reliable sources are used. The hook is fine, supported by cited reference. However, the first reference I checked has close paraphrasing:

Wiki-"that fruit tainted during the Mediterranean fruit fly scare be treated with gamma rays instead of being sprayed with malathion." Source-"that fruit tainted during the Mediterranean fruit fly scare be treated with gamma rays rather than sprayed with malathion."
The article states she graduated with a BS in chemistry, but your source (NNDB) states physics. Mgrē@sŏn 12:48, 16 April 2013 (UTC)

  1. She proposed that, instead of it being sprayed with malathion, fruit affected by the Mediterranean fruit fly could be treated with gamma rays. Is this still too close? I can't imagine how she proposed to do it.
  2. I presume this was an error. Ware & Braukman say chemistry, as does Leona herself in her book, which I regard as definitive. Hawkeye7 (talk) 21:01, 16 April 2013 (UTC)
