• Strictly hypothetical for different non-existant version of article: transhumanist assertions about robotics, the end of labor, conspiracies about drones and automation are all on mission. Ikanreed (talk) 23:02, 21 December 2014 (UTC)

1. The article robot just appears to be a series of trivia about various robots or proto-robots in no particular order. It isn't a good overview of the subject & doesn't appear to serve the site missions. It's been mission-tagged for two months with no improvement. See talk page for previous discussions.

2. 2009 creation by driveby editor; has had work since then, but nothing very good. Longish, but sorta sucks - David Gerard (talk) 12:59, 20 December 2014 (UTC)
3. If it would stop the plagiarism from Wikipedia and the whining and cries of persecution after it gets undone, OK. Spud (talk) 15:08, 21 December 2014 (UTC)
   1. I bet the whining and crying never gets as bad as Talk:Felidae. Sophie^Wilder 17:20, 24 December 2014 (UTC)

Maybe the stuff about robots in mythology could go in the ancient astronauts article if they've been mentioned in that context. Sophie^Wilder 22:16, 21 December 2014 (UTC)

Talos is an example, but the text is not worth moving - any coverage in the AA article will have to be writt2n from scratch.--ZooGuard (talk) 07:35, 22 December 2014 (UTC)
