Summary: The present article gives a brief discussion about operators which are weakly hypercyclic and answers the following three questions: (i) Must $T \oplus T$ be weakly hypercyclic whenever $T$ is? (ii) Is $T^{n}$ weakly hypercyclic for every $n \in \mathbb N$ whenever $T$ is? (iii) Is $\lambda T$ weakly hypercyclic for all $|\lambda|=1$ whenever $T$ is? Question (i) was explicitly posed by Chan and Sanders.

Keywords: Hypercyclic operators, weakly hypercyclic operators, direct sums of weakly hypercyclic operators, rotations of weakly hypercyclic operators
