Include other prizes?

I think if you are NOT going to restrict the list of prizes to Nobel Prizes but are also going to include winners of the Turing Award, you should include anyone who won an Abel Prize for mathematics (if there are any), a Fields Medal for mathematics (if there are any), and a Noble Prize for Engineering (and there is definitely at least one, Claude Shannon in 1939, and if you leave out ALL Nobles, then you have to leave out Shannon's, and it's so important I don't think you want to do that). Maybe others. Does the IEEE give out awards?2603:7000:9906:A91C:1C64:8308:33BC:E2D6 (talk) 21:17, 10 August 2021 (UTC)Christopher Lawrence Simpson

/* Nobel Prizes, Turing Awards, Emmy Awards, Grammy Award, and Academy Award */

Met an archivist from Nokia at Murray Hill, NJ that went through the various companies, beginning at AT&T Bell Labs. Showed one Emmy of two in the lecture that was presented. Researched this and determined that there were five. Also, in the lecture was Academy award and Grammy, hence the section was significant as an addition to Nobel Prizes, and Turing Awards. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Antonio cruz wiki (talk • contribs) 04:22, 20 October 2021 (UTC)

Educational films

During the research of Bell Labs material, there were several important short films done by AT&T with significant information of telephony, science and technology. One hidden gem was the Live from AT&T Bell Labs short films that featured renowned scientists and ideas or inventions being shown and discussed for PBS showings. Viewed the films for scientists and inventions. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Antonio cruz wiki (talk • contribs) 05:08, 2 May 2022 (UTC)

Bell Labs President "James Brown Fisk"

Noticed the fourth President of Bell Labs did not have a Wikipedia entry. Created a basic entry for James Brown Fisk using the similarity of the entry for William Oliver Baker. After searching the biographical sources, there was tremendous achievements that should be included in the entry for Mr. Fisk beyond my basic creation and editing experience.

Presidents

Created the table for Western Electric Presidents using this table design. Noticed, that the Bell Labs table was in chronological order from current to first, so reversed table entries from first to current order. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Antonio cruz wiki (talk • contribs) 16:11, 16 July 2022 (UTC)

Bell Labs Fellow

I have heard of a Bell Labs Fellow and I have read a person is a Bell Labs Fellow. But what is a Bell Labs Fellow? It is a person that has been identified by Bell Labs for their technical accomplishments in technical fields important for Bell Labs research as staff. There is an annual award ceremony held by Bell Labs and the recipients is cited for their individual work with other inductees as an achievement of their career. It is not one but a few or many. According to a Nokia Bell Labs website, there were 341 already recipients of this honor or prestigious award in 2022 and can't determine if the five new inductees were in this total. I have never met a Bell Labs Fellow in my life, or identified a person as a Fellow, but they were historical important as they existed or exist for their corporate accomplishments. The program, as I read started in 1982 by AT&T Bell Labs and continued through the other companies mergers, Lucent Technologies, Alcatel-Lucent, and Nokia. There also is an AT&T Fellow honor when AT&T branched off from the creation of Lucent Technologies in 1996. Why are these employees important or attributed to the scientific community is probably similar that there are IEEE Fellows or IEC Fellows or SPIE Fellows. There has be a list at Nokia of the recipients for them to indicate the total tally, not even part of the program since its' inception by AT&T in 1982. When I read that a person is a Bell Labs Fellow with a date or the citation, I add the entry as it gives a name or a former Bell Labs employee, a year of the award when present at the company, and what technical or scientific work was being done for this achievement. This allows a little more history about Bell Labs and specific workings. Being a Bell Labs Fellow appears as an international accomplishment because publications, other companies, and bios have this title with a person that has been awarded. It is prestigious that four other companies have carried this program into their corporate realms (old AT&T, new AT&T, Lucent Technologies, Alcatel-Lucent, and Nokia.) This program is not a fellowship for employees that work for Bell Labs due to being minorities or gender criteria. There seems to exist or existed a program as Bell Labs Graduate Fellowship where students were granted monies to work with Bell Labs and study in fields of science and technology.

Alumni

Noticed a video was presented on a Bell Labs Facebook Group... about Neil deGras Tyson discussing area codes. Thanks for the video. He actually gave information that he was a summer intern at MH... So did an entry on Wikipedia.... "Neil deGras Tyson Summer Intern at Murray Hill Bell Labs. American astrophysicist, author, and science communicator." 2607:FB91:1C0F:C5C4:9A0A:96B4:911C:C820 (talk) 20:44, 6 September 2023 (UTC)

There were four individuals that had significant Bell Labs and NASA Aerospace Officials history. Mervin J. Kelly, Louis John Lanzerotti, Donald P. Ling, and Walter A.

The TRADIC design team should be included into the alumni lists: Jean Howard Felker, James R. Harris, and Louis C. Brown ("Charlie Brown") — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.88.107.15 (talk) 21:28, 28 November 2023 (UTC)
