Pat's review of this article, as well as Collaborative filtering

There two articles are as they stood on 8/13 constitute a fine beginning, and I learned a lot from reading them. Some comments, questions, and ideas for additional development are detailed in the following subsections (to be added shortly):Pat Palmer 21:41, 23 August 2010 (UTC)

Article cohesion

If I understand correctly, Collaborative filtering is a sub-topic of the more general topic "Recommendation system". I'm not quite sure why, other than length, Collaborative filtering is a separate article. The other equivalent subsections might, for consistency's sake, also become separate articles (which someone could fill in later, if not immediately). Or it all could be combined into one big article.Pat Palmer 21:47, 23 August 2010 (UTC)

Introductions

As separate articles, IMO, the introductions to both articles should clarify how the two relate.Pat Palmer 21:47, 23 August 2010 (UTC)
