N.B. reporting of the edit history is currently fairly unclear and misleading. Most edits made to specimens appear as a pair of 'add' and 'delete' entries, which may not be together in the list. There are also often 'minor' edits, which are made automatically (rather than due to user activity), for example to merge synonym names.

I agree the writing looks clearly like an H, and for comparison I saw the following yesterday: http://herbariaunited.org/specimen/297823/
which is clearly written with a W (although due to scribble, looks like an A at first sight!).
