A total of five hits for the phrase "cybercognition" in google scholar - all to papers by the same author and repeating the same definition verbatim, suggests that this is not a notable topic. The article is mostly a copy of material form the article Umwelt [EDIT: Now the article has been rewritten to make it redundant with the article on Cybernetics, and entirely unsourced.] User:Maunus ·ʍaunus·snunɐw· 04:44, 10 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. One of these articles actually has 100+ citations according to GScholar, but only mentions "cybercognition" once. QVVERTYVS (hm?) 14:49, 13 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

  • Delete Ashby is certainly notable, but the article avoids saying that he ever used ther term himself. If he did, then it would be possible to merge or redirect it. All that seems to be said is that it is based on the work of Ashby, which by itself means nothing with respect to notability. I may be wrong; I don't have his book at hand--if so, canwe have page numbers and quotations. DGG ( talk ) 05:56, 21 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
