Scientist Vs Engineers is an inappropriate section

[edit]

Scientists Vs Engineers is an inappropriate section. There are a lot of scientists who invented a lot of things and engineers who didn't invent anything. A scientist works for general solutions (by discoveries,inventions,finding methods of problem solving etc) and an engineer works for particular solutions(design things for particular situation,maintenance etc). This section has citations that says nothing about scientists. This section says "When a scientist has also an engineering education, the same individual would explore principles in nature to solve problems and to design new technology". Is it true? A person do not need engineering education to invent things. A person only need a good brain and sufficient knowledge to invent things. In most of the cases "Scientist" is a bestowed title rather than a job. They may be industrial scientists,professors,engineers,doctors etc. So we can find a lot of engineers those are considered as scientists. This article says only about theoretical scientists.This article says nothing about applied scientists.

Incorrect definition

[edit]

The first sentence of the article states "A scientist is a person who researches to advance knowledge in an area of the natural sciences". Scientists, however, are present in all branches of science, not just the natural sciences, and neither of the two citations seems to claim otherwise. Also the first source seems somewhat out of place, since it is mainly about a debate about ant societies and only tangentially about the definition of the word "scientist". 88.65.74.152 (talk) 19:08, 14 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
