[edit] Generally known
Given that 'Control Engineering' is generally known as Control Theory, on which there is already an article, does this page really serve a purpose, or might it be better to simply redirect to Control Theory? Jenesis 21:16, 31 October 2005 (UTC)
- This article may be more accessible to a wider readership, and consequently is a bit bland. I think it reasonable to have more than one article on the subject, one elementary and universally accessible, the others covering aspects of the subject in greater depth. In having a single dimension criterion of quality (articles are scaled on a naive 'good/bad' rating, rather than more precise 'superficial/deep', 'prosaic/numerate', or I'm sure a hundred other criteria which could be applied) a potential wealth of knowledge is discounted as bad presentation. Most articles which qualify as 'feature' or 'good' tend to be pretty shallow.Gordon Vigurs 10:12, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
- This article could be seen as a point of entry to everything related to control. Control has theory, applications, general principles and structures in my view. So I would suggest to keep this page, and keep the focus of Control theory on the theory.Jan Richter 17:47, 13.10.2006 (UTC)
[edit] Reorganise the See also section?
The section See also appears to be unordered to me. I propose to organise it either aplhabetically, or to structure it according to control design, analysis, applications, etc. I would do this but would like to see your opinion first. Jan Richter 17:52, 13.10.2006 (UTC)
[edit] External links
Do any of those links to university departments belong here per WP:EL, or should they be considered spam? Pan Dan 16:53, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
