Merge proposal

Should this be merged with futurology? ClaudeReigns (talk) 03:40, 16 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Actually this is a stand alone discipline. I will ask around our innovation community & see if someone can expand it & provide sufficient academic detail. > Christopher Hire, 2thinknow —Preceding unsigned comment added by 210.15.243.54 (talk) 05:30, 28 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with Chris. This topic is worthy of its own article. There is much more that could be added or refernced concerning specific mathmatical and organizational techniques. --Cyon Steve (talk) 18:04, 9 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Closure Given the above, I have removed the merge template on this article ... there were none on the other articles (futurology and trend estimation). Melcombe (talk) 14:45, 29 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
