[edit] STKI

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

Nothing in this long article to indicate why this company is notable. No independent sources. NawlinWiki 14:58, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

STKI is one of the most important and most influential companies in Israel. It's customers are all the largest companies in the country, and it's research has been quoted in the press regularly for the past 14 years. The company's work has a major impact on the IT field in Israel similar to what Gartner has on the global market, and so we believe it is justified to have it's own page. Here are some quotes: http://www.cutter.com/meet-our-experts/schwarzkopfj.html http://analystfirms.tekrati.com/detail/firm/STKI/ —Preceding unsigned comment added by Erezbenari (talk • contribs) 15:17, 20 September 2007 (UTC) — Erezbenari (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

• Delete. This article lacks any resources, probably self written (to quote a previous comment :"we believe it is justified to have it's own page"). The 2 sources provided above do not provide evidence of notabily. Derwig 09:58, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

• Keep. This is page is an informational page of a well known and respected company. The idea of this page being deleted seems

absurdly biased! Y.S. 9-26-07 (UTC)

• Keep. STKI or META Group Israel has and is involved in all major information techology projects in the public, medical, private and entrepreneurial markets. Most international companies use their data for what is happenning in information technology in Israel. Their analysts present in almost all conferences in Israel and many in EMEA. The entrepreneurial research done by them is groundbreaking and was presented at the Academy of Management conference as well as the BABSON BERC entrepreneurial conference (Madrid) this year. —Preceding unsigned comment added by DrJimmySchwarzkopf (talk • contribs) 06:39, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
