Concordance (Software) redirect

Latest comment: 5 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

I got to this page via a redirect from Concordance (software) but can't see any mention of the company Concordance or any concordance programs. I was searching in fact for Oxford Concordance Program (OCP) but no such article appears to exist, nor any article on 'concordance programs' in general, but maybe listed under something else?? If anyone thinks the redirect is correct and something is relevant on this page please let me know, otherwise I'd suggest the redirect needs fixing. UPDATE: OK found "Concordancer" (stub).

Concordance has a disambiguation page, and Concordance database is redirected to LexisNexis, who distributes or used to distribute the database service. I would recommend you to add Oxford Concordance Program (OCP) on the disambiguation page so that someone may write up a new article about OCP.

Concordance Suite is the exact name LexisNexis used. Currently, the external link of Concordance Suite is redirected to CloudNine Concordance. I couldn't confirm whether Concordance Suite as a software was acquired by CloudNine, or CloudNine as a company was acquired by LexisNexis Group... Anyone? --ProfessorPine (talk) 01:54, 31 January 2019 (UTC)

Big data

Latest comment: 4 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

Why isn't there a section on big data? I first ran across LexisNexis around 2008 during a divorce, in which I found out my ex-wife had attempted to bind my name to credit card contracts through the use of checking a box in lieu of an electronic signature. After spending many hours researching contract law, I was able to clear my name of this debt with one of the biggest banking corporations in the world. At the same time, I felt it was best to contact the three main credit reporting agencies - as well as scrub my name from the internet - in order to disassociate my name with my ex-wife. It was during this process that I learned LexisNexis was one of the main entities collecting personal data about everyone. To this day, I regularly check and correct data that's been collected about me with Experian, TransUnion, Equifax and LexisNexis. --2601:CD:C101:7F46:D5FF:1F5F:E300:79A3 (talk) 19:46, 7 June 2019 (UTC)

Indeed, they deal with much more. PEPs, social and risk scores and data aggregation for AI decision making, redlining, and such. Hard to find RS for that, though. Zezen (talk) 18:54, 25 December 2019 (UTC)
