446:. Firstly, I fully endorse the above comments by Mercurywoodrose. To do an article on the science of a particuar decade does not make sense unless it is a timeline or list of events rather than an analysis. A timeline of science would be too long. Breaking it into years is much better as has been done in the

pure synthesis and original research. by trying to summarize the field without citations for who said this, its research. by grouping events together in a decade long pattern, its synthesis. unless all these statements can be backed by citations of notable science writers and historians (oh my god
374:
Or concentrate on the series that is already set up? Decades in science would be a summary of years in science. If we build the years in science series into a more comprehensive set of articles we can then see it there is a need for a decades in science series of articles. We should try an improve

This article is not great at the moment, I see. But in attempting a high-level prose overview of a whole decade it does something different than the year articles. I don't think many casual readers would be that interested in the year articles, because they are too in-depth, granular, and listy. I

etc already exist. This articles and the years in science series are poorly maintained. To make maint easier and since there seems to be little interest in developing these articles the decade in science should be deleted. It will put the related category up for deletion as well. --

I added the list of 1970s years in science links before I decided that deletion was a better option. The page could work as a list of events in the 1970s relating to science and tecnology (as it is now named) but the sythesi as metioned by UserThiste should go. --

clearly a notable decade for science (actually, which decade isn't notable for its scientific achievements?). Currently this article seems to be attaining a higher level of quality than the articles on the individual years.
454:
but that would be redundant since there is a already a list of years in science. Creating articles to do an analysis of science within a decade is setting arbitrary constraints. Science should be analysed within a field (eg
