This article make use of original research to compare fictional medical technology with real world advancements. Only one reference to real world technology actually mentions Star Trek. Simply not enough here to make a real encyclopedia article. Daniel (talk) 18:04, 5 September 2014 (UTC)
- Keep If there's not enough here then we can just add some more and deletion would disrupt this. See:
- From Shakespeare to Star Trek and beyond: a Medline search for literary and other allusions in biomedical titles
- Medical ethics through the Star Trek lens
- The history of poisoning in the future: lessons from Star Trek
- Star Trek-style 'tricorder' invention offered $10m prize

- Keep. I appreciate that some "X in/of [insert cult series name here]" articles may be unduly crufty, but I think there's sufficient sourcing out there to substantiate notability. And this article doesn't even currently mention the tricorder, for which some legit sources are already cited in our existing articles for tricorder and medical tricorder. -- Arxiloxos ( talk) 01:59, 13 September 2014 (UTC)
- Keep There are actually quite a few reliable sources about medicine in Star Trek. In addition, many more articles I found made mentions about how such and such medical advance would surpass medicine seen in Star Trek, so the subject of medicine in Star Trek does appear to have some mainstream interest.
