I find this article remarkably free of information. Actually it says nothing. Is "Web Science" vacuous, or is it just like other subjects with "science in their title? Jpff (talk) 16:12, 5 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Obviously this article does say nothing. The topic of "web science" though has a large literature. The difference between the two has more to do with petty-minded WP behaviour by a handful of "established" editors than it does with a shortage of subject matter. The web never needs Wikipedia, nor does web science. Acting as if it does, and if Wikipedia coverage is some vital ambrosia to only be distributed to the worthy, hurts WP more than it hurts the subjects.

Rename to Web science[edit]

Web Science → Web science – Per capitalisation conventions, but there's a redir in the way. Andy Dingley (talk) 23:49, 23 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
