Applications in multiple fields

This entry could benefit from adding examples and applications in multiple fields. The current examples were just citations of work that use the concept boundary-work. I think that applications can lift the article to show how the concept has been used. --MexFin (talk) 07:22, 25 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

More than one viewpoint

I added the toofewopinions template because this article only focuses on Gieryn's original concept, and completely ignores the way boundary-work is used in multiple fields. Maybe other editors can bring their expertise to enrich this article with perspectives from its use in multiple fields --MexFin (talk) 07:29, 25 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
