Spammy conference organizer with no evidence of passing WP:ORG. See also Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/OMICS Group Inc for a related discussion on another spammy conference organizer whose article was created by the same user. —David Eppstein (talk) 04:18, 31 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Article completely sourced to the company's own website and press releases. The exaggerated attendance figures are also only sourced to the company's own website. Whatever notability they have is for being a bottom feeder in this market, but even that is not supported by independent references. --Randykitty (talk) 07:23, 31 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment This is a notable company, founded in Tel Aviv in 1965 and headquartered in Geneva and Tel Aviv, Kenes has hosted over 3,000 conferences in more than 100 cities around the globe, with over 115,000 participants per year.Dentking07 (talk) 14:33, 1 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete as I simply see no better improvement. Pinging tagger Paste. BTW thanks Randykitty for sticking around to comment (I assume you were watching the article?) as I'm always thoughtful of pinging past users. SwisterTwister talk 07:44, 1 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep added Kenes Exhibitions with prominent sources. These expos are part of Kenes Group. Dentking07 (talk) 14:29, 1 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Thanks for your efforts, Dentking07. However, the added references, each just an in-passing mention of Kenes, do not sway me to change my !vote. --Randykitty (talk) 15:02, 1 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete This article subject does not meet WP:GNG. Not enough significant coverage in WP:RS sources to permit its inclusion in the encyclopedia. Zpeopleheart (talk) 06:12, 2 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
