[edit] from the article

"Shapin went on record saying that he is exceptionally dissatisfied with his representation on wikipedia in a talk he gave at the University of Pennsylvania on January 29, 2007, entitled "Science and Modern World." See Spring Workshops 2007"

I removed the above from the article, as it is not encyclopedic and unverifiable. But it is likely true, and may be of interest to editors.--ragesoss 03:30, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
