  • Do not change Computer science and Information technology articles show that they are different areas of knowledge and as such deserve to have separate, parallel category structures. Deletion serves no valid WP purpose. Nomination confuses such different subjects. Hmains (talk) 00:14, 26 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
