Comment a google search shows that this term is widely used and appears in the websites of many organisations, so this article isn’t just one person’s attempt to foist a neologism in the world. By its nature it appears mostly in blogs, corporate websites etc. and I don’t see any scholarly refs or newspapers of record. The basic issue for me is that Wikipedia is not a dictionary so my preferred outcome would be to keep this, tag it for copying to Wiktionary, and delete it after it’s made its way there.

Merge to Crowdsourcing. Plenty of coverage in recent years, many google scholar and books hits. wumbolo ^^^ 22:04, 13 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Crowdsourcing; don't see anything to merge. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 02:19, 14 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep It's easy to find a source for this such as this. Merger is a possibibility but there are multiple targets including The Wisdom of Crowds; Collective intelligence; Collective_problem_solving; Group decision-making and many more. Andrew D. (talk) 14:56, 14 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
