The pressure for references would hence be reduced as the referenced wiki-articles would need to state that a prototype has been made or else the technology should be deleted from the list. Another list could be named "list of diffusing technologies", which would contain technologies whose wiki-articles state that the technologies are new and gaining market-share over alternative technologies.--

explain and reference every item. Disputes may arise over whether something should be listed or where it should be classified, but these should be settled on a case by case basis, and should not be a basis for dumping the entire page. As mentioned above, a clear statement of how a technology qualifies to be listed would help with such disputes.

I believe the controversy over this article is related to the unclear definition of what is an emerging technology. One could consider naming it something like. "List of new technologies that are not in widespread use, but where prototypes or successful trials (for treatments) have been created" (the

This page is primarily a navigation page, and is useful mainly for a reader wanting to discover what range of technologies are being examined in a given area. The links then guide the reader to a more detailed examination, which would seriously detract from the utility of the page if it had to

Of course material of this nature can be referenced - a quick google with a term like "emerging technology" turns up plenty of conferences, magazines, etc. (Whether these specific items can be referenced is another matter.)

Citations need to be added, but otherwise this is a very notable listing of notable emerging technologies (lots of bluelinks). I think it's a terrific article with lots of potential that would be a shame to lose.
166:
I'm not sure that any of the current article even can be referenced properly as an emerging technology. If the article is kept, I can still remove all unreferenced content, which is the whole article.-

The deletion is based on the fact that none of it is referenced, and it doesn't seem that any of it even can be referenced to be an emerging technology. That these are emerging technologies is OR.- (
