Merge request

there are two entries

this and "OLTP"

this is a problem

I searched for On Line Transaction Processing and it did not retrieve a page. Search edfor OLTP and found that page and link to this page. I think the two pages could remain but merge the content of OLTP into this page. Keep OLTP with a link to this page, just to aid searches. (This is my first edit of a wikipedia page and if I am not recoginised - I'm sorry.)

I'd have to agree, although your mistake was assuming on line is two words, it certainly makes sense to file it under the name but leave the acronym, which is what 95% of people will use as an entry point. —This unsigned comment was added by Duds 2k (talk • contribs) .

I agree --sterno74

Ok, I've merged the OLTP article into this one. -- Bovineone 21:51, 10 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Name change

To maintain parallel construction with the OLAP article, I recommend that either one of the following should take place:

The Online transaction processing article should be renamed "OLTP", and "Online transaction processing" should redirect to the "OLTP" article, -or-
The OLAP article should be renamed "Online analytical processing", and "OLAP" should redirect to the "Online analytical processing" article.

Either method works for me, so long as these two articles are parallel in their construction. There is currently one vote over on the OLAP article to keep that article named OLAP, with a redirect from "Online analytical processing." What do you all think? Thanks.
