Conferences

Nothing is mentioned here about the fact that most of these "conferences" are crappy, low-quality events. The company heavily spams academics, gives its events names that resemble those of real, respectable conferences, grossly exaggerates the impact of their own meetings, etc. I remember seeing multiple sources about this, but don't have the time myself right now to search for them. Shouldn't be too hard to find, though. --Randykitty (talk) 13:11, 28 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Here is one. More can be found by Googling, for example, "OMICS crappy conferences"... --Randykitty (talk) 13:15, 28 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

OTOH, the sourcing for this article is terrible and does not seem to be any better than the previous incarnation, so the article probably should be deleted. --JBL (talk) 13:30, 28 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Absolutely, I agree with that. But in the unlikely case that it is kept, these sources need to be incorporated. --Randykitty (talk) 15:00, 28 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Let me add some more recent references for their conferences and other business, and I am deleting the deletion proposal. The above conferences criticism sources already mentioned on top,let me include the criticism section for conferences also Dentking07 (talk) 10:41, 29 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You can, of course, remove the PROD, but then this will certainly end up at AfD and I sincerely doubt that it will be kept. I don't think there's material enough for 2 articles on this bottom feeder company. --Randykitty (talk) 11:08, 29 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Editor now blocked for socking. Nomoskedasticity (talk) 16:25, 5 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The following discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it.

1. Our company received the letter from PubMed regarding inappropriate usage of PubMed logo in2012, it was resolved and later more than 200 journals listed [6]] in PubMed, and 2000+ articles indexed in PubMedCentral from our journals from last three years. You are requested to add the reply from our director published in the same science source [7]. ie Queried about HHS's allegations, OMICS Group Managing Director Srinubabu Gedela forwarded ScienceInsider an e-mail the company received last fall from Dionne in which he agreed to serve as an OMICS editor-in-chief. Dionne was then at NIH and said he needed clearance first. In other e-mails forwarded by Gedela, Srivastava agreed to be a journal editor and conference organizer. Gedela also supplied a scanned hand-written note by Srivastava from 2010 that essentially matches his quote on the OMICS site.

The above statement in brief is required at wikipedia page of OMICS to keep neutrality.

This false wiki data is affecting 1000+ employees of OMICS, you are requested to keep neutrality. Given permission i would like to edit the same. JSSPK (talk) 14:30, 5 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, I would like to change following on priority

Action by US government agency

In April 2013, OMICS received a cease-and-desist letter from the United States Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS). It alleged OMICS used images and names of employees that either no longer worked at NIH or did not provide their permission.^[1] OMICS responded by modifying its website and providing emails and letters from NIH employees. Those employees said they did not provide permission for their names to be used in marketing materials.^[1]

It should be re-written as

Trademark Infringement Notice from DHHS

In April 2013, OMICS received a trademark infringement letter against the in appropriate usage of logos from the United States Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS). OMICS responded and forwarded ScienceInsider an e-mail the company received last fall from Dionne in which he agreed to serve as an OMICS editor-in-chief. Dionne was then at NIH and said he needed clearance first. In other e-mails forwarded by Gedela, Srivastava agreed to be a journal editor and conference organizer. Gedela also supplied a scanned hand-written note by Srivastava from 2010 that essentially matches his quote on the OMICS site[8].

According to this information the first paragraph of also should be modified. Request-It should be done on priority basis JSSPK (talk) 15:00, 5 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
