This article seems to be pure theory restating what ITIL is and says nothing to the extent that the framework has been adopted in practice and how widespread is its use. I think it needs some examples of notable organisations and details of how the best framework has been implemented and some factual statistics. Otherwise, on its own it is meaningless. It could be published by a government department but lots of documents are published by government departments that have zero notability or credibility. How many users are certified at least basic level ? For all readers know only Bob's bookstore in Tuvalu uses the thing .... --] (]) 01:24, 6 December 2012 (UTC)

:I think, there shall be no examples, how to implement ITIL. Why? Every organisation have to do it's "own" ITIL implementation. For this, we can include some hint about the facts about implementing. The idea about information around certified persons is nice. For the we need sources about the numbers and at least an annually review. --] (]) 14:49, 15 December 2012 (UTC)

This article is written in British English, which has its own spelling conventions (colour, travelled, centre, defence, artefact, analyse) and some terms that are used in it may be different or absent from other varieties of English.

This is the talk page for discussing improvements to the ITIL article. This is not a forum for general discussion of the article's subject.
The article should not include a re-statement of what ITIL is, contains, addresses, etc. The sources referenced will do this -- or the article won't stay. As an article, it ought to be an overview of what the framework provides but not by specific applications. There needs to be enough detail so that similarities and differences from other frameworks can be shown.

Missing article for Strategy Management topic
Under ITIL Service Strategy is a broken link for ... "Strategy Management". I fixed a link for ... "Financial management for IT services", as it was just a typo, but cannot find an article for this topic. I could just make a stub, but that would be a waste, if the real one is floating around somewhere. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Djwaustin-wiki (talk • contribs) 23:24, 25 October 2012 (UTC)
British English?
While ITIL was started in the UK it has since become an international standard adopted everywhere. Should the article be re-written to remove British English? I'm not sure of the arguments pro or con in this area. --Jasenlee (talk) 17:37, 16 November 2012 (UTC)

I think, there shall be no examples, how to implement ITIL. Why? Every organisation have to do it's "own" ITIL implementation. For this, we can include some hint about the facts about implementing.
