Help out with the To-do lists

Be consistent

Use a "standard" layout for transhumanism related articles (see: The perfect article, and Featured articles)
Add Transhumanism navigation template on the bottom of all transhumanism articles; (use {{Transhumanism}} or see navigation template)
Add Transhumanism info box to all transhumanism related talk pages (use {{Wpa}} or see info box)
Add [[Category:transhumanism]] to the bottom of all transhumanism related articles, so it shows up on the list of transhumanism articles

Maintenance / Etc

Find/cite sources for all positions of an article (see citing sources.
Try to expand stubs, however, some "new" articles may be neologisms, as this is common with positions on theories on life and may be suitable for deletion (see deletion process)
Watch the list of transhumanism related articles and add to accordingly (see transhumanism articles)
And always write for an encyclopedia.

Its a bit strange how short this article is. It concerns the research avenue for the achievement of lifespans numbering centuries, maybe even immortality. However, it is mostly theoretical now as nanotechnology isn't even developed yet, but should theoretical things be mentioned (rejuvination, cellular repair, immune defense, etc)?--Exander 08:51, 23 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Copyvio

Some of these sections appear to be direct copies from a research paper or other scientific publication, and that's lame.--Anonymous 08:51, 7 November 2009 (UTC)

Actually, the section on antibody-nanoparticle computational modeling looks like a direct copy of this blog post which gives no indication that it's under a free-content license... sigh... Antony–22 (^talk⁄_contribs) 07:10, 10 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Merger Proposal

I think that the article on Bionanotechnology should be merged into this one. Although the terms do have slightly connotations and usages, the distinctions are by no means commonly recognized. Also, there is so much overlap that most relevant technologies are better discussed in a holistic context rather than trying to split them up. It would be much more effective if the distinctions between the terms were discussed on one page, allowing for a better elucidation of the differences.

The article resulting from the merge of Nanobiotechnology, Bionanotechnology, and Bionanoscience was originally posted at Bionanotechnology and Nanobiotechnology, but I have moved it back here due to WP:AND. Antony–22 (^talk⁄_contribs) 17:47, 9 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Last paragraph of Bionanotechnology

Nanobiotechnology#Nanobiotechnology The last paragraph makes very little sense.

"Nanobiology may play a role in a radical level of change. Various aspects of applied and theoretical nanotechnology could help to function as virtual assets on the Internet; which may become a newly formed socio-economic substrate system making up the "virtual landscape." Expanding technologies and a changing socio-economic system might reshape every aspect of life that is currently understood. A matrix of mass media may come out of all these technological advances related to nanobiology. This could create an interactive bi-directional experiential knowledge conveyance system experience. Biological metaphors in computing are being used to create the biological and physical materials that are needed in order to guide the next step in human evolution." — Preceding unsigned comment added by HeavyQuark (talk • contribs) 16:10, 5 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, that is gibberish. I've removed the paragraph. Antony–22 (^talk⁄_contribs) 18:20, 5 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
