I'd quite like to add a picture to this page but this being my frist authored article I'm slightly worried about inadvertantly breaching copyright (that and the image servers are still having prolems). If anyone is a bit more confident in this area and can find a good pic of Tanya then please upload it. --Alibi 11:34, 23 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] move

Page should probably be moved to Tanya Byron. "Dr(.)" is generally not prepended to titles of articles about people with doctoral degrees. dbtfz^talk 20:44, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

• This applies even to well-known people who are almost always referred to as "Dr.", e.g. Martin Luther King, Jr. and Phil McGraw. (Can't believe I used those two names in the same sentence.) dbtfz^talk 20:46, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

Just felt the urge to fix a couple of typos in the main article. The author could spell psychology, but not university, which is odd. Just a keyboard slip I'm sure, because the uneducated don't bother contributing, but as a generalisation it seems that spelling is no longer important in todays world. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Warrenweasel (talk • contribs) 08:57, 21 April 2006.

...nor the use of the apostrophe, apparently. ElectricRay 22:32, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

I'm very sorry Warren. I'm sure I would have picked up on my mistake if it hadn't be for the fact that the misspelt link actually worked! TallAlex

[edit] Age and maiden name

Anyone know these?

Surely her maiden name is Sichel?

[edit] BSc MSc

Doesn't her MSc supersede her BSc, and so shouldn't be quoted in her title? Also, isn't the normal way (at least in the UK) to refer to people with doctorates as either Joe Bloggs PhD or Dr Joe Bloggs, never Dr Joe Bloggs PhD? I'm no expert on this but I'm pretty sure that this is the standard form in this country, unless Wikipedia adopts some other convention. BaseTurnComplete 11:31, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
