[edit] Plural vs. singular
Wouldn't it be better if the article title was 'Soft skill', instead of 'Soft skills'? --OnesixOne 15:54, 5 May 2006 (UTC)
- ... well... a quick search in google (28.June.2006) points out 3560000 results for "soft skills" and 207000 for "soft skill"; I think the general concept is better described by "soft skills", and some particular skill of the set by "soft skill". I vote :-) for "soft skills" pedropimenta 12:55, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
- [SCANS (http://wdr.doleta.gov/SCANS/)] provide a good framework for the context and 'definition' of soft skills, and I intend to add those ideas to Soft_skills article... any comments ? pedropimenta 13:02, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

- The convention is to use singular in such a case. Jimp 04:50, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Merging to Skill
- Don't merge. This is such an important topic that it deserves its own article. --Grace E. Dougle 14:07, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
- Merge Both articles are extremely short. They would be better combined. I don't see importance as a factor here (the information will still be included just elsewhere) but if it is improtance you're arguing, how do we judge importance? Perhaps the length of an article gives an idea of the importance of the topic. Jimp 04:50, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
Don't Merge! They are very different and need to be seperated.
- Don't merge. This is such an important topic that it deserves its own article - I suggest both articles refer the other pedropimenta 11:39, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
- Don't merge. Soft skills are a class of skills on their own and the term is widely used.
