Scientist or writer?[edit]

On his bio it seems like Mr. Hayes is more of a writer than a scientist who has a job as a scientist. Maybe the entry should read Brian Hayes (writer) instead? user:Rhetth aka 161.130.211.132 (talk) 17:40, 16 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I came here for the same reason as the last poster[edit]

Mr. Hayes is an accomplished editor and science writer.

He should be listed as a science writer, not a scientist. 2601:200:C000:1A0:582A:9531:AEF3:EF0B (talk) 01:05, 15 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
