[edit] InfoCepts

InfoCepts (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

This article has already been speedy deleted twice as blatant spam. The latest incarnation is a lot less overtly promotional, but I still think that there are significant WP:CORP issues here that need to be addressed. 149 Ghits which is pretty low for an IT Consulting firm, especially when most of thise hits seem to just be various job vacancy advertisments placed by the company.

The most recent speedy tag placed on the article was removed without comment by User:Abhose, but to their credit they have at least trimmed most of the blatant advertising out of it. Lankiveil (speak to me) 11:29, 10 March 2008 (UTC)


Please let us know the point where you think we are violating the wikipedia criteria so that it will be easy for us to edit the content as required- abhose

please highlight the content, you think is not coming in wikipedia's criteria, thanks... abhose

Delete as advertising: Wikipedia is not the place to promote your company. It needs coverage in reliable secondary sources (ie that are independent of the subject) in order to meet Wikipedia's criteria for verifiability and no original research. Snthdiueoa (talk) 13:28, 10 March 2008 (UTC)


InfoCepts is doing notably good in the field of Datawarehousing and BI field. One thing people should know about infocepts is that while working at remote location at Nagpur in Maharashtra(India) where not much significant companies are presents still this organization is doing good and providing the boost to the local environment to highlight this region on the global map.We are considering the revison, Thanks.... abhose —Preceding unsigned comment added by Abhose (talk • contribs) 13:44, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

Keep The article should be cleaned up, not deleted. Sсοττ5834talk 14:57, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

  • Weak Delete WP:RS WP:N All I can find is this from the Washington Business Journal [1] and although they mention infocepts in the article it's just a passing quote from one of the key personnel. I've also found this video about their HR strategy from B-Eye [2] although I don't know enough about B-Eye to claim them as reliable.Maybe someone can shed some light on that.--Torchwood Who?

  • Delete WP:RS. If the company's as successful and growing as they claim someone will eventually write an article about them. Until then it's spam. - IceCreamAntisocial (talk) 18:09, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

We have revised the content to make it mere informative. Please dont consider it's spam. As infocepts has become a favourite destination of younge talent pool in this region which is the good remark for its work in this region. Though infoepts doesnt highlightd much in informative sources, still we think you should consider the visionary efforts of the InfoCepts....Thanks Abhose —Preceding unsigned comment added by Abhose (talk • contribs) 07:42, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

Revised or not there is still a sourcing issue with this article, if you can find sources that meet WP:N and WP:RS I would gladly change my mind to support you.--Torchwood Who? (talk) 12:25, 12 March 2008 (UTC)


Thanks for your consideration…. InfoCepts works on the Business Intelligence (BI) Technology which is a niche field. By the Technology profile, we are the only company of Central India which works in this field. More importantly InfoCepts is a consulting and education partner of MicroStrategy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MicroStrategy) which is a respected name and a global leader in Business Intelligence. (http://www.microstrategy.com/Partners/Directory/detail.asp?id=161).

Also InfoCepts is the only Authorized Training centre of MicroStrategy in India. InfoCepts is also proud to be a part of the Micro Strategy’s major international events every year (please refer http://www.microstrategy.com/Events/MicroStrategyWorld2008/index.asp?CID=2604b0 ).

We agree that InfoCepts currently does not have as many secondary sources as other organizations. This is primarily because the company is less than 4 years old and works on a niche field which everyone does not know about. If you still think that not having a lot of secondary sources is an issue, we would be happy to withdraw the listing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Abhose (talk • contribs) 13:23, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

It's not actually up to me to ask you to withdraw, but Wikipedia REQUIRES secondary and sources to establish notability (the bar that wikipedians have set to decide what should be covered and what shouldn't). Please read WP:CORP and if you feel your company can satisfy the guidelines there should be no reason not to include it. That said, I think there is going to be a big issue of finding what wikipedia considers reliable sources, please read WP:RS. You've said that your company is young and I'm sure if the work you're doing is as cutting edge as you assert you can always reopen the article at a later date when more sources become available, provided it's not a WP:COI.--Torchwood Who?
