===[[Science and technology]]===
Redundant, articles already exist seperately on [[science]] and [[technology]]. In fact most of this page's text is lifted from those two articles. (this was a speedy nomination, which I changed to AfD; there is also a related discussion on [[Talk:Science and technology]] [[User:ZimZalaBim|ZimZalaBim]] ([[User talk:ZimZalaBim|talk]]) 03:00, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

:::'''Comment''' That's why I think the scope of the article should be changed to reflect this relationship, rather than delete the article altogether. Technological and scientific progress go hand in hand, and there are a lot of academic works, historical or sociological, explaning the historic relationship between the development of both.--[[User:Lobizón|Lobizón]] 12:13, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
::::'''Comment''' Which is why we properly have articles on the academic disciplines studying these two terms: [[science and technology studies]] & [[history of science and technology]]. --[[User:ZimZalaBim|ZimZalaBim]] ([[User talk:ZimZalaBim|talk]]) 12:18, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
*'''Delete''', purely redundant. --[[User:Terence Ong|Ter]][[Wikipedia:Esperanza|<
*'''Delete''' These concepts should '''(and are)''' discussed in two seperate articles. This article is not needed. <b>[[User:BrendelSignature|<
*'''Keep''' for now. I think we need to be carefull here and it might be best to see how the article develops for a while. As is pointed out on the talk page the term "Science and Technology" is used frequently as in "S & T Studies", "History of S & T" etc. This make it a likely search term on WP. It is not just the sum of what is on two different articles. I would much prefer to have time to argue this out on the talk page rather than at AfD. --[[User:Bduke|Bduke]] 12:47, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
*'''Keep''' (also for now). The article is not to explain the term "science" and the term "technology." It is for the term "science and technology" which takes on a meaning other than the sum of its two parts. I am the first to admit that the article in its current state is weak. However, I am not the right person to write the final article and it was my intent to put a clean-up tag on the article but I did not move fast enough and the speedy delete tag was up before I found my tag. It may turn out that nobody is able to bring this up to the desired standard, but at least give the article a couple of months to show where it can go.

*'''Keep''' It's a bit sad that this article is all we have to say on the subject of Science and Technology in the general sense. Surely there can be more flesh added to these bones along with some nice cites? [[User:Robovski|Robovski]] 01:46, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
::yep... it is sad.. but that is why there are around 40 other articles covering this material. this article at best should be a category at best, and you know what... it already is.... so this article is moot. --[[User:Buridan|Buridan]] 02:22, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
::*'''Comment''' But it is not already a category. [[:
