Insurance business intelligence

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Appears to fail the WP:GNG guidelines as an non-notable market-specific use of the term and a lack of authoritative sources to demonstrate that Insurance has an accepted appreciably different usage of the generic term business intelligence. Apart from the usage promoted by Insfocus Systems Ltd (insfocus.com) for their software, there seems little independent evidence published in the literature (searching Google Books and Google Scholar) to support an encyclopaedic article. The article appears to be an unjustifiable content fork of Business intelligence. Fæ (talk) 11:00, 18 October 2010 (UTC)

 * (Clarification of nomination) There is no implication from the nomination that BI does not exist in the Insurance field, only that the term "Insurance Business Intelligence" is just another application of BI rather than being unique to this field. Your reference to Accenture's website is helpful as it is clear that they use the phrase "the Accenture BI Solution for Insurance" in the standard way you would expect for any other field. Customization of BI applications does not lead us to the conclusion that specialist terms apply or could be considered encyclopaedic, in particular as this would lead to pointless content forks of Business Intelligence for every possible commercial variation.

 * Good point, I have marked the (orphan) article Banking business intelligence for a merge into Business intelligence in line with your note. Fæ (talk) 14:31, 18 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete. At best a content fork of Business intelligence. Sources do not support a unique definition for the insurance industry. - MrOllie (talk) 13:48, 18 October 2010 (UTC)
