article is already well defined research in context as an article is and should only be relevant to scientific investigation period any other uses of the term research can also be defined in their own applicable environment provided adequate references from appropriate sources however i do not believe this article should be further diluted too much outside of the scientific arena purpose it serves to describe article must identify serious academic purpose and not necessarily describe a person researching a family tree for example does anyone have any objections to this proposal of maintaining certain limitations restrictions for this article
