Keep. I don't think it is obvious from the parts of the term to which technique it refers. Not that the current Wiktionary definition explains the technique; the current 1st sentence in Wikipedia seems much better. --Dan Polansky (talk) 19:31, 6 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
This work seems to explain it as sum of its parts. The pieces are hard to understand if one is not familiar with the very specific context. It is not a dictionary's job to explain something that in the opinion of the authors seems to take a chapter of a book to explain. If it doesn't fit in one or two lines, a "full definition" belongs somewhere else. DCDuring TALK 20:09, 6 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, so have you understood the explanation given in the book? If so, can you rephrase and give a clear and succinct summary of what dependency injection is and from what it is counterdistinguished? --Dan Polansky (talk) 09:43, 7 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Spurious argument. You would have it that any concept your opponent on this page can't explain should be included. Obviously the author of the book that provides a usage context has explained it in an SoP fashion in that context. DCDuring TALK 15:49, 27 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
