1893:"Cybernetics has its origins in exchanges between numerous fields during the 1940s, including anthropology, mathematics, neuroscience, psychology, and engineering. Initial developments were consolidated through meetings such as the Macy Conferences and the Ratio Club. At its most prominent during the 1950s and 1960s, cybernetics is a precursor to fields such as computing, artificial intelligence, cognitive science, complexity science, and robotics amongst others. It is closely related to systems science, which was developed in parallel. Early focuses included purposeful behaviour, neural networks, heterarchy, information theory, and self-organising systems. As cybernetics developed, it became broader in scope to include work in domains such as design, family therapy, management and organisation, pedagogy, sociology, and the creative arts. At the same time, questions arising from circular causality have been explored in relation to the philosophy of science, ethics, and constructivist approaches, while cybernetics has also been associated with counter-cultural movements. Contemporary cybernetics thus varies widely in scope and focus, with cyberneticians variously adopting and combining technical, scientific, philosophical, creative, and critical approaches."
1958:- thanks for your engagement on this page, and for looking for some consensus on the talk page. It would be great to figure out the first sentence here. Defining cybernetics in one sentence has some difficulties compared to physics, as a lot of definitions refer only to parts of the field or particular approaches to it. There are two early definitions of cybernetics' subject matter, from the 1940s. One the subtitle of Wiener's book ('Communication and Control in the Animal and Machine') and the other from the Macy Conferences ('Circular Causal and Feedback Mechanisms in Biological and Social Systems'). The field expanded and fragmented after that point, so these only work to some extent now. I think the best way to include them would be as the second sentence, something like 'Cybernetics was initially defined as the study of...'.

devices. Jakob von UexkĂźll applied the feedback mechanism via his model of functional cycle (Funktionskreis) in order to explain animal behaviour and the origins of meaning in general. In the
Electric Mind 2-2 Model Model Patent from 1898, Tesla demonstrates his radio-controlled torpedo boat at Madison Square Garden in Ney York City. Electronic control systems was also described with the 1927 work of Bell Telephone Laboratories engineer Harold S. Black on using negative feedback to control amplifiers. In 1935 Russian physiologist P. K. Anokhin published a book in which the concept of feedback ("back afferentation") was studied. Other precursors include: Alexander Bogdanov's tektology, Scottish philosopher Kenneth Craik and Romanian physician Čtefan Odobleja.

economy at large scale during the early 1970s* don't really contribute to the overall article much other than subjectively justifying its notoriety. Let me make it clear that I'm not disputing that the section has good information in it, just its overall writing style and encyclopedic value for the general reader. Much (if not most) of the section is too specific to be of interest to the general population, which is
Knowledge (XXG)'s intended audience. I think a good way to start pruning the section's useful content from the too-particular is to try to define where the line is between both and I think looking at similar articles would be a good place to start.

Ktesibios and others such as Hero of Alexandria, Philo of Byzantium, and Su Song, are early examples of cybernetic principles in action.

some careful negotiation I think (see talk page) and seems to get it right. Perhaps more of the Soviet details can just be on their own page, but there is also a balance to strike in making sure the page isn't too of a USA story (again see talk page). There will be a bit to add to second/third waves, so it should even out in time.

will try a reorganisation/rewrite of influence section, moving some parts to subfields (which I think will need renaming, or splitting).

1314:--- Good points. I have had a go, bringing the example of steering a ship up into the lead section. How does this read? I think its best to avoid definitions in the lead paragraph as once you start with definitions of cybernetics they start expanding (there is a whole section of these in the article...).

Hi IP user. I reviewed the text and agree with your flags re the text you highlight. I have removed some already. There are other bits that just need better contextualisation.

Hi, I have never read anything on cybernetics, so coming from a complete outside perspective. I found the lead and definition section to be a bit difficult to grasp. Offering these in simpler
English and then widening their definition to included nuances might help clarify exactly what cybernetics is
1913:
The lede sentence as it is is meaningless. "Cybernetics is a wide-ranging field concerned with circular causal processes such as feedback." This is not a useful definition, nor is it a definition at all, for it does not actually state what cybernetics is, but merely what it concerns. A lede sentence

Good point - (although the use of 'feedback' in that sense does originate with cybernetics, but the sense of circularity has been lost along the way). It is hard to define feedback within the first sentence without it getting complicated (the ship example comes later in the paragraph to unpack it -

The precursors section was removed as uncited. That's fair enough, and actually deals with the 'too detailed' flag (which can now be removed). But there should be something re precursors (otherwise the article underrepresents non-US centric sources and the extent that those in the 40s were building

Re the edits by the anon IP. I think removing the top level categorisation here is not the best move. At the bottom level, cybernetics touches almost every field. Whereas the groupings in terms of (1) natural science/technology, (2) social/behavioural sciences, (3) various forms of practice such as

In the late 18th century James Watt's steam engine was equipped with a governor, a centrifugal feedback valve for controlling the speed of the engine. In 1868, James Clerk

I understand that the categorization makes sense to you but ultimately it is arbitrary. Biology and engineering fit into the same category as much as economics and psychology do, which is to say not at all. Meanwhile, the section in general is now shortened enough (and it was much needed) that the

There is currently a flag to expand the lead section. However, there was recently a longer version that was in good shape, but then there was an editing push to reduce it. Rather than just adding to it, I think it would be good to discuss how it should be expanded on the talk page first. Lots of

If there can be a wording that is not just 'applications' that would be better, however. Cybernetics has not progressed just as theory being applied to other domains but also in the other direction, with ideas coming from domains like biology and management into its theory. Perhaps 'Practice and

There are many issues with the current section and perhaps the best way to summarize them is that while they are obviously relevant to the topic, much of the information there probably doesn't fit the criteria of importance to be on a general-purpose encyclopedia article on cybernetics.
1810:
There hasn't been much discussion re the proposed split. I have tried a different approach, doing some cutting and making the section into a bulleted list rather than subheadings. Will be able to reduce text further by making coordinated edits on some of the pages that are linked to.

Oxford languages provides that cybernetics is: "the science of communications and automatic control systems in both machines and living things". Starting with something along these lines and building onwards to more complex ideals of what cybernetics entails would be beneficial.

Hi IP user, understood, and thanks for the input into this page. It is difficult to get the balance right here, because of how widespread the subject matter is. Your work on the structure is appreciated. It now needs some work on the balance of content, which I can work on.
1366:-- I thinned out the opening paragraph - moving detailed examples of feedback to main body section. See what you think. The multiple examples in the first para were added in response to other comments on the talk page, so its a question of finding the right balance I think.

text, which can be developed when we are ready. Some subsections could be merged, some could be split, but this is the ground to cover. This leaves the influence section as focusing on those outside of cybernetics influenced by it, which deserves its own section.

If this improvement goes through, the current section should be rewritten as a summary that explains how far-reaching the applications of bybernetics are (from psychology to biology to engineering...) with an appropriate "Main article" hat-note to the new page.
