[[:Numerical control]] → {{no redirect|Computer numerical control}} – The most common usage for this technology is CNC. Even this articles uses that abbreviation. What does CNC stand for? Computer numerical control. So that should be the title of the article. [[User:Isaac Rabinovitch|Isaac Rabinovitch]] ([[User talk:Isaac Rabinovitch|talk]]) 16:49, 16 March 2025 (UTC)

* '''Support''' The original meaning of numerical control is an important one, and my first thought was to oppose this move, on that basis. However we also have an article at [[history of numerical control]]. Given that, I've no object to renaming this to follow the modern term of CNC instead.

*'''Support''' per Andy Dingley. The current title is broader, but this article is mainly about CNC. [[User:Srnec|Srnec]] ([[User talk:Srnec|talk]]) 20:05, 18 March 2025 (UTC)

:Please note that there is an old version of [[computer numerical control]] now available [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Computer_Numerical_Control&oldid=269120431 here], in case it is useful.

{{ping|Wtshymanski}} Our [[history of numerical control]] does go back to the vacuum tube era and describes machines using punch tape and magnetic tape drives. You wrote, {{tq|Back when computers had tape drives, you wouldn't think of using a computer to control a machine tool}}. Perhaps I do not understand your meaning.
