[edit] Blobotics
Jelly robots? Appeared in one publication of new Scientist? By a scientist who's not even famous enough for Wikipeda? Moglex 19:40, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
- Keep It's a speculative concept but it's based on real science. ABC Radio in Australia covered this term [1] as did New Scientist [2]. You did research this before nominating it, didn't you? Nick mallory 13:18, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
- Keep per Nick mallory. Hut 8.5 14:41, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
- Keep per Nick mallory. Not too many google hits but then again g-hits don't necessarily mean notability. Research seems sound, thus keep. -WarthogDemon 18:24, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

- Keep. Real published research in an interesting field, and the name has caught on per coverage of New Scientist, ABC Radio, Chemistry Daily[3] & several blogs etc. As for 'By a scientist who's not even famous enough for Wikipeda', it's not my area, but the papers/books listed on his publications list (linked from [4]) look to support notability, so perhaps he should have a bio article?
