Data Quality Mad Libs (Part 2)

Data Quality Mad Libs is an ongoing OCDQ series.

For the uninitiated, Mad Libs are sentences with several of their key words or phrases left intentionally blank.

Next to each blank is indicated what type of word should be entered, but you get to choose the actual words.

The completed sentence can be as thought-provoking, comical, or nonsensical as you want to make it.

 

Data Quality Mad Lib

“If you want to

_______________ (verb or phrase)

your

_______________ (noun or phrase)

initiative, then

_______________ (verb)

your

_______________ (noun or phrase)

that

_______________ (phrase)

is highly recommended.”

 

My Version

“If you want to doom your data quality initiative, then advise your technical stakeholders that ignoring the business context is highly recommended.”

This is a tough one Jim - but I'll try two out:

“If you want to destroy your business intelligence initiative, then tell your senior management that just going with their gut is highly recommended.”

OR

“If you want to loose all credibility for your data analysis initiative, then admit to your users that using huge spreadsheets with macros and near infinite links is highly recommended.”
