Deletion of List of disruptive technologies

Comment: POV is fine as long as it's . I've added a reference and a new item to the list. I believe the reference establishes the lists' notability, although the notability of the individual items may still be suspect. Why not help out and add some sources yourself?

Comment: 1)''' Most of the entries here amount to |predictions of the future. Had WP existed in 1960 I can well imagine an editor adding "Nuclear power: Hydro, coal, oil, and natural gas electric plants." As it is, most '''all''' of the claimed "disrupted" items are alive and well and show no sign of immediate demise. Even wired telephony continues to be important in the face of wireless services, particularly in businesses (but in the spirit of cooperation I'm going to go ahead and add that text to the new entry). "Disruption" can only be judged historically, and then only by referenced sources. Of course well-referenced candidates can be found, but the effort would be better directed to working on articles about those technologies. (Perhaps those articles should be put into a "Disruptive technologies" category.) '''(2)''' ''Disruptive Technologies'' was the title of one of the fad business books of the 90s. (Whether or not the concept was or is valid is beside the point; the book was nevertheless one of the fad business books.) As such this list has a high risk of collecting hundreds of lines of drive-by ("oh! I've got one!") unreferenced cruft, just like the dozen or so already here. That is not the sort of editing Wikipedia should be encouraging. '''(3)''' Finally, '''we already have the Disruptive technology article.''' It has a list of its own. The context exists in that article to describe the concept and properly referenced, historically validated items can be added there. In fact, as it is, many of the items ''there'' carry cn tags. There is no need to have this article, with yet another list of cn-tagged items (or items that should be cn-tagged), as well
