Talk:Quantum science

Move to "Quantum science and technology"?

Three out of four of the references that make this topic notable use the term "quantum science and technology". Only the uncited book uses "quantum science". Johnjbarton (talk) 16:54, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

And the book

Quantum Science. doi:10.1007/978-981-19-4421-5.

only uses the term "quantum science" in the title, it never discusses the topic directly. Johnjbarton (talk) 17:44, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Substantial deletions

I cut a bunch of material from this article that were unsourced or WP:SYNTH. In Wikipedia content additions need to be justified by references and consensus, see WP:BURDEN.

It is clear that "quantum science" is not now a synonym for "quantum mechanics" or anything older. This is new term and it should not be presented as a historic concept. Johnjbarton (talk) 17:02, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It shouldn't be presented at all without sources that explicitly discuss the term as a term, rather than merely using it. We're not lexicographers. XOR'easter (talk) 18:37, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
