Now that I have a copy of the complete robot, i am creating/filling in articles on the stories where they are lacking. If anyone wants to help out of they have some kind of strange emotional attachment to the fact that the articles aren't there..please inform me.
I'm not sure if it belongs here as an aside, but in the introduction to Robot Visions, Asimov lists notable robot stories. This list includes "Franchise", "The Last Question", and "The Feeling of Power" (see pp 10-16). These stories are about computers, but Asimov adds that computers might be considered immobile robots and that he didn't distinguish between the two as he included the computer story "The Evitable Conflict" in I, Robot.

...is not a robot story just because it is set in a world which has robots. Robots do not appear in the story or form part of the plot. Not does it belong here just because it has some similar plot elements to The Caves of Steel. Richard75 ( talk) 13:21, 15 June 2014 (UTC)
Death Sentence (short story) also appears to be a positronic robots story. Shouldn't we add that to the list of stories not included in this book? Richard75 ( talk) 17:47, 3 September 2017 (UTC)
They’ve got a protoplasmic base, you know. I don’t think they have the slightest idea they’re robots.
the observers in this experiment, the original psychologists of Dorlis, passed away with the First Confederation
The original planners wanted as nearly a completely closed system as possible. Here they are, just as far off the trade routes as possible, in a thinly populated region of space. The whole idea was to have the robots develop free of interference.
