"Solutions" - Why the plural?[edit]

The reference talks about a Solution Architect, which is a term I'm happy and familar with, yet the article for some reason refers to a Solutions Architect.

Was it a conscious switch in writing this article, if so why? The article talks about Solution Architecture, why isn't this practised by a Solution Architect.

Honestly it's pure semantics. Personally I prefer the plural, but the two are clearly interchangeable. Acrooney (talk) 13:20, 29 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You wouldn't say Networks Architect or Buildings Architect even though they also work on many. I think where two terms are interchangable, the more commonly used version should be the standard. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Skipjacker (talk • contribs) 22:00, 1 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I plan to assert WP:BOLD soon to singularize the title and references within the article. I've confirmed that, once you remove job postings, references on the web to the term are singular at a rate of 8:5. Mostly, though, it is the unassailable convention presented in the previous comment that convinced me to do so. Oh, and that I am a Solution Architect myself obviously helps make the point.

Quotes about Solution Architect[edit]

In these three edits (May 2015) the following three quotes have been used in the text:

Now I brought this to the attention of the editor, see here, and he paraphrased the text of one of the quotes, see here. I think the other two should be paraphrased as well, and/or quotation marks should be added. -- Mdd (talk) 09:58, 31 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. I have paraphrased two remaining paragraphs and added the reference to developer.com material.Voywiki (talk) 16:13, 31 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

About the source data

In the context of the above subject, there seem to be a disagreement on the source to be added. Voywiki argued "... don't cite blog entries as examples of another source..." (see here) However in my opinion:

In this case I think the 2005 article should be listed here. -- Mdd (talk) 10:17, 31 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Added the reference per the suggestion above. Voywiki (talk) 16:13, 31 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 11 October 2015[edit]

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: moved to Solution architect. There's a rough consensus to use the singular per WP:UCN and decapitalise per WP:JOBTITLES. Jenks24 (talk) 09:13, 27 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]


Solutions Architect → Solution Architect – As User:Eeeuk and User:Skipjacker clearly explained, in the earliest talk page entries, the discipline is singular and the convention for <anything> Architect is to use the singular. This is very clearly supported by the Google ngrams for both the discipline's and the practitioner's terms, as seen [here] and, especially, [here], which clearly show the singular is much more common than the plural in the literature.
