Talk:Information management

message: This page has languished for about 10 years and was appallingly bad (IMHO).  I could not stand it any longer, and so I completely re-constructed it eliminating redundant and irrelevant material and extending it significantly.  I believe that it is CRITICAL to take a fully strategic view of information management in organizations, and now you can see my views more clearly.  I have preserved all the original material that (IMO) had even marginal merit, and the references and external links that still work (two of them gave me 404s).  There are now 40 references to a wide range of IM and related literature.  
I marked up the wikipedia links without regard to whether they exist and so there are some red words and phrases for anyone with more to add (or take out the braces if you believe it is not a legitimate topic to link).
Let's talk, people?

thread_title: A major revision has been completed

message: I am considering a major edit to the topic Information Management. Before I do so, I was wondering if many people actively track this topic. See http://imbok.blogspot.com/ for a general idea (it would not be a copy & paste though!). My intent is to convey that Information Management is a management discipline and should be covered accordingly. Comments welcome. Fidelis 03:37, 8 December 2005 (UTC)
replies: text:  I agree that the article could benefit from an extension regarding Information Life-Cycle Management. However, this issue also requires a distiction between 'data' and 'information' to be established first, since these terms are frequently mixed up and used as synonyms. Data can be stored, retrieved, transferred, etc. Information, and subsequently knowledge, is something being created by an individual within a formative context, i.e. that the same data can result in different information depending on the recipient. I know that this kind of discussion tends to become academic, but the issue should be included as part of a conceptual discussion. --Kai a simon 08:59, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

text: I agree with you- so what there is to do is add updated sources- please go to it.  That will vastly accelerate the evolution of the article.  Don't knock old sources- librarians and data people have been working on information management issues for a LONG LONG time!  If I get some bretahing room form other projects I iwll try to add some more modern content and thinking. Alex Jackl 05:58, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  ''Matrix Management''... 

message: There are no sources, other than wikipedia, listed for the entire first section of the defining paragraphs of the term "information management". A recognizably credible wikipedia article has atleast one source per paragraph, according to the wikitraining on citations. Each paragraph is also supposed to be of a proper lenght, definitely longer and bulkier than the multiple three sentence paragraphs produced in the first section, which will be most used by the public from the page to define the term.

replies: text: The lead of the article seems to reflect the sections of the article, which in turn seems properly sourced—see WP:CITELEAD. If there are some controversial passages in the lead that are not backed by sourced article content, feel free to tag them with  templates. - DVdm (talk) 15:00, 24 June 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: "Information management embraces all the generic concepts of management, including the planning, organizing, structuring, processing, controlling, evaluation and reporting of information activities, all of which is needed in order to meet the needs of those with organisational roles or functions that depend on information." => I found 0 book or proper research paper explain those 7 stages.

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: I have moved the recently added lead content into the main text as separate section. Not really sure how to integrate this content in a good way, but it was far too detailed for the first lead sentence(s). All tweaks and improvements welcome of course.
