Ignoring the state of the article, I really don't think we need separate articles down to this level of detail. Completely unsourced, and from the tone I wouldn't be that surprised if it's been cut-and-pasted from a textbook —  irides centi   (talk to me!)  00:01, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep Doesn't seem the least detailed to me-- over-general if anything, and and could be used as a start at a more thorough overview of the topic. I don't think these are in the textbooks yet--it sounds more like class notes & easy to rewrite if necessary We also might need articles on the individual programs mentioned.  GS returns at least 10 hits for BindN, 18 for DP Bind, only 2 for DISPLAR, though it is a related program. There were already 3 good inline refs to the university web pages for these programs--I moved them to external sites, and  from them I found the formal literature refs, which I put in. Good to work on some molecular biology for a change. DGG 03:39, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep I agree with DGG - needs more detail if anything. Think outside the box 12:17, 10 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Merge -- There is a similar article on Protein-protein interaction prediction which is just about as bad. I think they should be combined into a single article on biochemical interaction prediction which could then be expanded into something substantial.

 * Keep. Provides useful information. No merging with Protein-protein interaction prediction. These are very different things.Biophys 23:28, 10 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep. Needs wikification. Do not merge with protein-protein interaction prediction; that is an entirely separate process. Axl 21:46, 12 May 2007 (UTC)
