The article on the
field of values predates this article by a year. I recommend merging the content of Numerical Range into field of values.

I suggest the other way around: merging field of values into this article. I think "numerical range" is more commonly used. --

I agree with merging field of values into this article instead. I personally hear the term "numerical range" more frequently as well, and also the recent work on higher-rank numerical ranges and joint numerical ranges never seems to use the term "field of values", so it seems to me that that term is going by the wayside in the current literature.

I agree to merge field of values into this article. Current research is presented at a bi-annual meeting called the Workshop on Numerical Range and Radii.

Comment. The consensus above seems to be to merge, but no one is following through to do the merging. The discussion is stale, with no comments for over a year. In the absence of anyone performing the merge, I will remove the merge proposal template, without prejudice to anyone actually doing the work to merge.

Usefulness?
This article could be improved by writing down why numerical range is important, rather than just giving the definition. Specifically there's a result stated in Trefethen and Embree's book "Spectra and Pseudospectra" to the effect that the maximum real value of the numerical range of A gives a growth estimate for ||exp(At)|| near zero.

The defining formula
Is ist possible to define anywhere, what the vector X contains in the defining formula? And if X is a vector, how can then the scalar W(A) be a field?
