The formal name seems to be "ISI Web of Knowledge" and I think "ISI" should be added to the opening phrase. The article title could be changed to same — unless the database is much more commonly known as just "Web of Knowledge" in which case the opening phrase could be something like "ISI Web of Knowledge or commonly just Web of Knowledge ...". Thoughts? Nurg (talk) 00:48, 21 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
There are two separate articles for two apparently identical ISI services: Web of Knowledge and Web of Science. Should they be merged, with a redirect from one to the other? And is it still "ISI", after the merger/takeover of Thomson and Reuters? I don't have time to investigate, but someone who knows these things should.

Actually, to me it looks more like the name now is simply WoK, which is the name they use several times in the text on thier website and which is also displayed on the opening page of WoK. I have moved the article accordingly. --Guillaume2303 (talk) 09:20, 9 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Guillaume asked me, and I agree. Web of Knowledge is the current consistently used name and the article should be moved back to that title. Thomson Reuters Web of Knowledge is their name for it in their advertising but nobody who doesn't work for the company has ever called it that, and I doubt that anybody ever will. This is a case where best known name should take precedence over the official name. (It was actually a typical PR idiocy to call it by the name of the current company--the PR department may think the name of the company gives it prestige but they're wrong; it's the other way round.. Almost any other of the alternatives is better known--if any company is associated with it, it's the former ISI, the company that Garfield founded. But I think most of us still call it what the inventor called it: Science Citation Index. Garfield was a scientist and knew to call things by a name that described them. ` DGG ( talk ) 18:49, 10 October 2012 (UTC
