I know it's not really kosher to edit an article about oneself, but in this case claims were being made on my behalf that make me look better than I really am, so hopefully it is not unethical for me to fix them. Pirhayati, if you read this please don't take offense, I do appreciate your taking the trouble to edit the article.
The particular issues are as follows. (1) Taehong Cho was not my student; his advisers were Patricia Keating and Sun-Ah Jun (usually in academia you don't say "X was Y's student" unless Y was X's adviser.) (2) It would not be accurate to say I am a phonetician. To count as a professional academic phonetician, you need to have a record of publication in phonetics journals, and I don't. Many phonologists, like me, do research that relies on phonetics, or even teach phonetics at the undergraduate level, but that does not make them phoneticians. (3) The photo of myself was not my work and I have credited the real photographer.
Great to see you around! The photo of myself was not my work and I have credited the real photographer. That means the file description you gave on commons:File:BrucePHayes.JPG is erroneous. Are you sure you own the copyright to the picture or the photographer gave you explicit permission to release it under the CC-BY-SA 4.0 license? Nardog (talk) 00:11, 11 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
