I, one of the subject's children, agree that someone unrelated to him should clean up this article; my siblings would also agree. It is most likely, and most inappropriate, that he wrote it himself. Both sadly and fortunately, he is no longer capable of using either Wikipedia or the internet.

- I added this article to the category https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Science_and_academia_work_group_articles_needing_attention, and hope that some independent editor(s) take(s) up the challenge. To any who do(es), I thank you. Acwilson9 (talk) 05:31, 19 April 2019 (UTC)
- FYI: Richard Wilson (physicist) (my late father) and the late Wolfgang K. H. Panofsky worked together (amicably, I believe) at Stanford 1951-1952, and were married for life to two sisters, Andrée Désirée Wilson (my late mother) and Adèle Irène Panofsky, the two surviving-to-adulthood children of Caltech physicist Jesse DuMond and Blanche Irène DuMond (née Gaebel, later Orsini). By 1970 the professional relationship of the two brothers-in-law was strained. Because they are my family and I myself do not have a NPOV about them, I myself will not add any of this info to any WP article.

- In 2020, other editors created the Jesse DuMond en.wikipedia article, translating it from the corresponding de.wikipedia article. Another editor might wish to add a connection to that articele from this Richard Wilson (physicist) article; I myself cannot do that, due my COI and lack of NPOV. However, I did (minimally) activate the Jesse DuMond Wikilink in the Wolfgang K. H. Panofsky article. Acwilson9 (talk) 06:23, 21 October 2021 (UTC)
