"He was the shortest serving director of the laboratory." I think this this might be out of date, according to Los Alamos National Laboratory#Directors his successor was directory for 2005-2006, and I think if you count up the months it is less.--203.6.205.131 02:13, 16 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Either way it would need to be sourced without WP:SYN, which it wasn't so I removed it per WP:BLP. Toddst1 (talk) 04:37, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This article only describes two years in the life of an individual who has had a long career. And those two years are described in a highly critical manner. One is left wondering what is the other side of the story. Complexica (talk) 16:57, 11 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia is an open forum. If you think you can describe Nanos' 2 years at Los Alamos in a different light, go for it. If you would like to add more material, go for it. Spruce (talk) 03:55, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The succeeding director was installed in an acting, interim capacity only, with the goal of finishing out the existing contract. Therefore the statement about "shortest serving director" is accurate. Spruce (talk) 04:06, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wow - what a WP:COATRACK hatchet-job on the guy, obviously written by a seriously disgruntled lab employee. In the name of balance and WP:BLP I've trimmed that often poorly sourced, highly-pov material focused on how bad someone thought their boss was at LAN and replaced it with what I think is a much more well-balanced and well-sourced section.
