:::'''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|<fontspan colorstyle="color:green;">e</fontspan>]][[User:Terence Ong|nce Ong]] _{([[User talk:Terence Ong|T]] | [[Special:Contributions/Terence Ong|C]])} 06:43, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

*'''Delete''' These concepts should '''(and are)''' discussed in two seperate articles. This article is not needed. <b>[[User:BrendelSignature|<fontspan facestyle="font-family:Arial"; color=":#1F860E;">Signature</span>]][[User:BrendelSignature|Signature]]</font><fontsup colorstyle="color:#20038A;">brendel</sup>[[User:BrendelSignature|brendel]]</sup></font></b><small>[[Wikipedia:Editor review/BrendelSignature|Now under review!]]</small> 07:30, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

*'''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.
