The main page on nanorobotics has a similarly titled subsection. So, do we need this as an independent article? Jsonitsac 23:46, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
Can Crichton's book from 2002 really be considered "one of the earliest books themed primarily around nanotechnology to reach a mainstream audience"? Isn't The Diamond Age (1995) pretty widespread? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sippan ( talk • contribs) 17:14, 20 January 2009 (UTC)
It should at least get a mention :) 91.107.180.195 ( talk) 17:20, 1 February 2009 (UTC)
If the entry has a link to a Wikipedia article which clearly mentions the nanobots, then it doesn't need any other reference. Dream Focus 22:41, 6 December 2011 (UTC)
As is common in this sort of article, the film and television section has become a meaningless list of every popular (and some very minor) sources of nanotech references in these media. I think, instead, it would make more sense to explore the specific tropes, when they emerged and how they've sustained or disappeared. I see three basic models for nanotech in TV and film:
Exploring each of these tropes and how they've refined and expanded in film and television would make much more sense, and lend itself to becoming a dumping ground for links to shows and movies much less.
I'd also suggest some analysis of how [virus]es and nanotech are often conflated in mass media science fiction.

This page appears to be moribund, perhaps due to the proliferation of instances of the topic? But I was still a bit surprised to see that Silo (series) wasn't here. Perhaps because its use is too over-the-top? (That is why I'm not volunteering to create the content myself — I'm not very good at Wiki'ing, so I'll just leave this as a hopeful note.) — MrRedwood ( talk) 02:17, 21 December 2023 (UTC)
