![]() | The contents of the Nutritional science page were merged into Nutrition on 13 July 2016. For the contribution history and old versions of the merged article please see its history. |
This merge led to confusion, as nutrition is the study object, the scientific discipline is nutritional science or nutrition science. An article about the science should include history of the science, notable professorships, scientists, journals, key results. I started that in the article that can be found today. -- AlienFood ( talk) 09:02, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
Now regarding how to do the split, my original plan was to make a nutrition (physiological process) article to avoid engaging the merge (it was a new sense not mentioned in the article after all); the ideal way would be to do a move of nutrition → nutrition science and then a move of nutrition (physiological process) → nutrition; both will need to be admin-assisted. Doing the cut-paste thing is a bit against WP:MOVE's central idea of preserving the history as much as possible.
-- Artoria 2e5 🌉 15:25, 5 March 2021 (UTC)I made a suggestion how a separate article nutritional science could look like here: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/?title=Nutritional_science&oldid=1010406688 But it was reverted. These aspects (history of the science, key results, notable scientists) are not covered in the current article nutrition at all. -- AlienFood ( talk) 18:51, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
We don't have to split or move anything. Just leave nutrition as it is currently (an overview article leading to the subtopics human nutrition, animal nutrition and plant nutrition, not about the science discipline) and restore what I suggested as an article for nutritional science instead of the redirect. -- AlienFood ( talk) 20:33, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
