Contextual intelligence

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Appears to be a neologism. No sources except one book. ~DC Talk To Me 00:18, 9 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete: Per WP:NEO. Joe Chill (talk) 00:51, 9 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - per WP:NEO. Also of note: while there are many hits for contextual intelligence, few match this article's content, linking it instead to Robert J. Sternberg.  Plus, this article appears to have been created by a single-purpose account. - DustFormsWords (talk) 04:09, 9 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete, non-notable neologism.  Anna Lincoln  11:55, 9 February 2010 (UTC)

Don't delete it, update it. There seems to be quite a bit of information on "contextual intelligence" in the literture, several books, several news articles, several professional and peer-reviewed jounrals. It may be a newer phrase, but that does not make it invalid. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.39.25.200 (talk) 15:17, 9 February 2010 (UTC)


 * Keep/merge Contextual intelligence is a notable component of the notable Triarchic theory of intelligence which is covered by numerous sources. The suggestion that this is a neologism is nonsense - it is a phrase not a word and the component words are well-established and used with their ordinary meaning.

 * Comment. Is the concept of "contextual intelligence" as described in the article (namely an approach to decision making proposed by Kutz in 2008) the same as or even related to the "practical/contextual subtheory of intelligence" of Sternberg's triarchic theory (which dates from 1985)?  As far as I can discern, contextual intelligence in the sense of Kutz is not so much a theoretical concept in the study of intelligence, but rather belongs to the realm of inspirational leadership messages such as are proclaimed at seminars that typically cost lots of money to attend them.  As such, it does not seem to be a notable concept, and merging with Triarchic theory of intelligence is not a plausible option.  Just redirecting to the latter article, however, does make sense.  199.3.224.3 (talk) 19:26, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
 * We are here to decide whether to delete everything including the title. The content which appears under that title may be amended by ordinary editing and so its exact state is unimportant for the purposes of this discussion. Colonel Warden (talk) 20:43, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
