Inventory proportionality

This article lacks references and is written like an essay. Also, I feel that it lacks enough notability to stand on its own. Funnyfarmofdoom (talk) 23:44, 15 March 2010 (UTC)

References have been added. Additonally, this terminology is in use in the realm of operations research and current inventory management practice globally; Wikipedia includes many other terms in this realm, but this one has been missing. For these reasons, the entry is notable. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mathteacher69 (talk • contribs) 00:17, 16 March 2010 (UTC)

Merge - Interesting topic but has less than 10 real web hits with almost no context. Suggest the contents be merged into Petrolsoft Corporation and other related articles. - Stillwaterising (talk) 02:24, 16 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete. The one "reference" provided is in fact a dubious link to a software vendor.  This seems to be at best a sub-branch  of inventory management, which may itself warrant a separate article from inventory generally.  Note also that Petrolsoft Corporation may not be a suitable target for merger or redirect; that business seems to have very limited notability if any.  - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 14:28, 16 March 2010 (UTC)

Merge - Agree Inventory Management should be its own article and inventory proportionality could be a sub-topic of Inventory Management. The topic should not be deleted as it is a notable practice in operations research, inventory management, supply chain management, and optimization.

 * comment I think that if the creator of the article feels it should be merged, we should userfy it so he can get a chance to work at it and to merge it to an article about inventory management. Funnyfarmofdoom (talk) 03:48, 17 March 2010 (UTC)
 * comment Should this article become the new inventory management article with other info taken from inventory? New at this. Mathteacher69 (talk) 01:34, 19 March 2010 (UTC)Mathteacher69
