Conflict of interest

[edit]

There is a congruence between the username of the creator of this article and the person who introduced the term "Bioresilience". If they are the same person, or closely related, this would seem to be a case of conflict of interest.

Term creation date

[edit]

In the article editor DanielCarlTaylor cited Daniel Taylor, "Something Hidden Behind the Ranges: A Himalayan Quest" (San Francisco: Mercury House. 1985) for the date of the first usage of the term "bioresilience". Yet in Daniel C. Taylor's 2018 book, Yeti: The Ecology of a Mystery, the author says: a new term: bioresilience, a term I introduced in 1995. I am concerned about the discrepancy. --Bejnar (talk) 15:19, 11 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I checked OCLC's worldcat.org and they list Something Hidden Behind the Ranges: A Himalayan Quest, ISBN 978-1-56279-073-8, as being published in 1995. --Bejnar (talk) 16:04, 11 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
