• Reason for the change: The page describes Scott's academic affiliation and awards, but includes little about her actual work as a scholar.
• Proposed change: Adding a section on the subject's work. Please see a suggestion below, with supporting sources. I will try and separate my proposals for specific parts of that section, so that they can be accepted or rejected independently.
