Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Criticism of the scientific status of neuroscience
I ''do'' feel that I can understand the material pretty well, and there are pretty solid reasons to delete the page. Most of the page summarizes work by neuroscientists who ''do'' consider it to be a science, and that is followed by a lengthy essay that is 100% uncited and . Thus, there is hardly any sourcing for what ought to be the main topic of the page, with most cited sources contradicting what the pages says, except in the opinion of the editor who wrote it. Now, that said, as much as I like neuroscience, I like  too, and I'm quite receptive to having some coverage of "criticism of neuroscience", subject to . As Mark viking correctly says, the available source material indicates that the premise that "neuroscience is not really science" is a  premise, mostly promulgated by critics of psychiatry (claims that psychiatric diseases are not really diseases, and that psychiatrists are corrupt, or whatever). However, on the more precise question of Mind–body problem|mind-body Dualism (philosophy of mind)|dualism, there is plenty of source material, already covered on those existing pages. It does occur to me, however, that Human brain#Cognition, the place in our neuroscience-related pages that is most directly related to the issues in the page nominated here, could be expanded (again, subject to due weight) to include some mention of the arguments against materialism and physicalism, so that might be worth about a sentence or two. That does not really add up to a merge, however
