Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Big data (3rd nomination)
It may not be a well defined concept, but that hasn't kept it from being heavily discussed in . From the first page of Google hits alone you have discussions from IBM, McKinsey & Company, and ''Forbes''. I'm not surprised that it was deleted in 2009, but the second nomination was a pretty clear keep over two years ago, and the idea has only become bigger since. It was also a http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2685/4461757843_7869b5d691.jpg cover story in ''Nature (journal)|Nature'', one of over 8000 Google Scholar hits. References already in the article include ''The Economist'' and ''Harvard Business Review''. It's a bit of a buzzword (buzzphrase?) these days, so I'm sympathetic if you want it to go away, but this isn't the way it will happen
