Talk:Barbara Reskin

message: This article is not intended to advertise for any product or person by any means. It is an article about Barbara Reskin and the work she has done with job and labor queues. As a student in a sociology class I needed to have information about this theory that she had purposed and found that there is little to nothing about it on the internet or wikipedia. For an assignment I have added it so that others can find information about it.
I understand that I only have research from Reskin's work but I have not been able to find other research on this theory.  This is for a class project at UNC and I do not feel that it is blatant advertising.  Do I need to find sources that dispute this theory? Or that are are from other people besides Reskin? I was only intended to create a definition and source for the Reskin Theory.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Krstn4 (talk • contribs) 22:52, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

text: My Google search for "Barbara Reskin" yields 3,850 hits, and Google Scholar yields 725 hits; both are impressive. Additionally, her book Job Queues, Gender Queues: Explaining Women's Inroads Into Male Occupations has been cited 479 times, making it the most influential work on gender and occupational segregation. Finally, Reskin's election as president of the professional association of sociologists five years ago also demonstrates her importance to the entire field of sociology. 152.2.25.87 19:42, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

message: Hi all,
I propose changing the section called "Reskin Theory" to a section called "Queuing Theory." The theory was not originally developed by Reskin, but she did elaborate greatly on the elements of the theory as well as show its applicability to gender segregation in the workplace. I can also provide more cites for queuing theory if needed. 
Additionally, I'd like to ask if it would be useful to expand the page with some information about her current research projects or classes. I will check in again.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.95.71.121 (talk • contribs) 
:The suggested rename sounds perfectly reasonable to me...perhaps expanding the article on Queueing theory is something in which you would be interested?
:Any expansion of the current article is most welcome--please add any information you may find. — Scientizzle 06:36, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
