The result of the debate was DELETE or REDIRECT. I'm going to redirect it. dbenbenn | talk 17:11, 2 Mar 2005 (UTC)
This page just duplacates information that is already presented more comprehensively at Neural network JeremyA 03:55, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Delete article content already covered in another article. Also, the fact that this is an "excerpt" from another publication leads me to believe that this is a possible copyvio. --Deathphoenix 06:38, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Trilobite (Talk) 10:47, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, though perhaps merge with neural network if it can be cleaned of an possible copyvio. The concept does appear from Googling to perhaps be emerging in the field, but pretty much at this point solely propounded by Mark Tilden. HyperZonktalk 17:22, Feb 17, 2005 (UTC)
- Redirect. -Sean Curtin 01:04, Feb 18, 2005 (UTC)
- Redirect to Neural network. Megan1967 08:34, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Unless there is evidence that this has expanded past a single person's approach, I think this might have to be
deletedas a neologism. Very few of the google hits apply to this concept. A tighter search finds only 7 hits (the first being Wikipedia). Is it widely discussed? Are others citing this work? Rossami (talk) 22:35, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC) Change to abstain based on findings below. 23:26, 22 Feb 2005 (UTC)- Rossami, I think your Google search is inappropriately narrow. Googling for "nervous network" robot yields 750 hits. "Nervous network" seems to have currency in the field of robotics, and apart from the association with Mark Tilden alone. The article nervous network has material not covered by neural network. Keep. Wile E. Heresiarch 04:01, 21 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- The page nervous network appears to be a copy-paste from this webpage. The copyright statement for the site states that all material is covered by the GNU General Public Licence - possibly countering any copyvio worries. Having researched nervous networks a little more, I change my vote to merge into the Neural network as one of the types of neural network. JeremyA 03:08, 24 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Keep the article but it needs a rewrite. Nervous Nets are fundamentally different from Neural Nets. May I offer a rewritten entry? jwgoerlich 10:00, 26 Feb 2005 (UTC)

- Comment: The message that I take reading this message and the resulting replies is that even people in the field are unsure about the distinction between neural nets and nervous nets JeremyA 22:37, 28 Feb 2005 (UTC)

- Redirect to neural network --Neigel von Teighen 16:42, 26 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Keep, seems okay for Wikipedia. JamesBurns 10:09, 27 Feb 2005 (UTC)
