Topics addressed by selected professional supply chain certification programmes

Article has a note from October 2017 proposing a split for the material on professional supply chain certification programmes. The proposal discussion is archived with no discussion other that the split proposal by Biogeographist. I agree that the table seems too large and specific for this article and support the proposed split, but I would call the article "Supply chain certification programmes" without the reference to "comparisons". - BobKilcoyne (talk) 05:25, 25 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Agree TolWol56 (talk) 21:54, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Biogeographist, BobKilcoyne, and TolWol56: I'd be happy to help effect the split, given that it seems to have consensus. However, the current section "Organisation", which would presumably form the basis of the new page, seems to be based entirely on a single 2009 book on the topic, which would be a little thin for a standalone article. Do any of you have some sources which could be used to build the new page, or would even be able to sketch up a draft? Felix QW (talk) 15:26, 27 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

There seems to be some scholarly work on the topic, such as this, so I suspect notability is not an issue. Felix QW (talk) 15:30, 27 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Disagree with my own split proposal: Actually, I would suggest just removing the {{split}} template and keeping the table in this article. I suggested the split so long ago that I don't even remember doing it, and I've changed my mind: now I think the table is not big enough for a separate article. However, I still agree with the formatting changes that I suggested. Thanks for drawing attention to this. Biogeographist (talk) 20:09, 28 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Is the level of detail set out in the table still required? The terms "high" and "low" are not defined. What do they actually mean? The only reference cited in this section is Jacoby's 2009 Guide. Is all this detail cited in Jacoby? If so it is going to be out-of-date? Tramaricoa et al's analysis looking at preferences and relevance to SCM is a useful reference but does not list topics to the extent covered by this table. I would prefer to remove the table completely. BobKilcoyne (talk) 02:28, 30 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Content it uses pre-exists than in the article. For instance, it incorporates at page 60 the sentences, "Supply chain event management (abbreviated as SCEM) is a consideration of all possible events and factors that can disrupt a supply chain. With SCEM possible scenarios can be created and solutions devised." We can clearly see the evolution of this content on Wikipedia. The germ of this sentence was first merged into this article [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Supply_chain_management&action=historysubmit&diff=38371279&oldid=38144595 in February 2006], having been authored at [[Supply chain event management]] in [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Supply_chain_event_management&oldid=23535975 September 2005]. In 2006, the content read, "Supply chain event management (abbreviated as '''SCEM''') is a consideration of all possible occurring events and factors that can cause a disruption in a supply chain. With SCEM possible scenarios can be created and solutions can be planned." That content remained fairly stable until September 2009, when it was copy-edited [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Supply_chain_management&action=historysubmit&diff=311443225&oldid=310466441 here] into the form it appears in print. The sentence prior in the source enterered the article [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Supply_chain_management&action=historysubmit&diff=199092966&oldid=199013641 in March 2008], with the seed having entered another article [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Supply_chain_management_software&diff=next&oldid=141025192 in June 2007]. There can be little doube that Arora has copied content from Wikipedia. [[User:Moonriddengirl|Moonriddengirl]] <sup>[[User talk:Moonriddengirl|(talk)]]</sup> 13:56, 15 December 2010 (UTC)}}

+== Topics addressed by selected professional supply chain certification programmes ==
-== Merge from [[Certified Supply Chain Professional]] ==
-I just a completed a merge from [[Certified Supply Chain Professional]] to the Certification section. Feel free to edit for better integration into the main article. Looking over the work, it is my impression that the big cert organization table, while referenced at some level, probably has quite a lot of synthesis, per [[WP:SYNTHESIS]], in its creation. It may be better to delete it, but I will leave that to the experts to determine. --[[User:Mark viking|Mark viking]] ([[User talk:Mark viking|talk]]) 18:10, 8 February 2016 (UTC)
-:I was looking at it last night; will clean it up this evening when I get home. I recalled a lot of OR involved in the article.

-I have added [[Template:Split]] to {{section link|Supply chain management|Topics addressed by selected professional supply chain certification programmes}}, proposing that this section be split into a new article titled [[Comparison of supply chain certification programmes]], because the table seems too large and specific for this summary article (see also [[User:Mark viking]]'s reservations about this table mentioned above).

-* the background of each cell of the table should be colored (a different color for "high" and "low") to make the table easier to scan visually,
-* the titles of each row should be sentence case where appropriate per [[MOS:CAPS]], not capitalized as they are currently, and
-* the titles of each row should be wiki-linked to any appropriate articles.
