The first sentence says it was coined in 1957, but the citation it gives says the book came out in 1958. Anyone know why there's a discrepancy? EdgeNotchedBard (talk) 00:32, 18 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The software engineering community seems to have discovered Parkinson relatively late in the day, and are disproportionately represented in this article. The emphasis should better reflect Parkinson's original concerns, which were all about organisations and management. (Looking at the discussion on the page where deletion was proposed, it looks to me as if Parkinson was relatively unknown to Americans until the software engineering community discovered him sometime around 2000; however, he was very well known in the UK.)
