Conclusion
Why is there a conclusion? Shouldn't the summary be in the introduction at the top? --Sydius (talk) 16:04, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
What is "Excel Miner"?
I searched google for "Excel Miner" and came up with nothing.
- I'm guessing that this must be a reference to the "XLMiner" product http://www.xlminer.net/ --NorthernBloke 10:02, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
External links cleanup
I removed most of the external links per WP:EL and WP:SPAM. This is the type of article that should have few, if any external links other than sources. --Ronz 17:08, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
- I've repeated the same cleanup, and placed Template:uw-spam1 warnings on a couple of the offenders' talk pages. The 'popular tools' section is almost an invitation to linkspam - possibly could do with retitling and rewording to avoid phrasing likely to attract spammers - see bottom of Wikipedia:Spam#External_link_spamming. However this article isn't really within my area of expertise. Please take this on if you know about the topic! --Qwfp (talk) 20:31, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
suggested External Links
I am not a disinterested party, but I have some external links that I believe would be useful and informative and in keeping with the external links policy. I am also suggesting these for the Business Intelligence entry. I believe they fit in both.
- Will You Buy? More Companies Turn To Predictive Analytics Software
- Gartner Magic Quadrant for Business Intelligence Platforms, 2008
- Enterprise Systems Business Intelligence Power Rankings

I would like to add an external link to a white paper/presentation on a joint University of Texas-Pervasive DataRush Predictive Analytics project related to NetFlix. The crux of the project relates to utilizing microprocessor speeds to gain faster predictive analytics. May I please add this link?

Expand Machine learning techniques section
I propose to expand the section Machine learning techniques with Group method of data handling. --BrutForce (talk) 03:51, 3 May 2011 (UTC)
Computer simulation
Isn't computer simulation a predicive analysis also? it's definitely a decision support system, and it predicts future outcome using known data, much like data mining. I think it should be added as an additional tool for Predictive analytics. 134.191.232.68 (talk) 13:52, 21 April 2012 (UTC)
