Article was PRODded with reason "Non-notable journal, not indexed in any major, selective databases. Does not meet WP:NJournals or WP:GNG." DePRODded with justification "removing proposal for deletion given its prominent contributors, ~100 references in scientific journals, inclusion in hundreds of libraries that satisfy criteria 1 and 2 of WP:NJournals". However, prominent contributors don't contribute to notability, 100 references in scientific journals would mean a speedy delete for a single researcher and is way too low for a scientific journal to come even near notability, and being included in libraries is not very meaningful for an open-access journal (i.e., libraries just list it, they don't really make a formal decision to include it in their collections, as would be the case for a subscription journal). In all, does not meet any of the criteria of WP:NJournals (and WP:GNG even less). Hence: Delete. Guillaume2303 (talk) 09:14, 16 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Weak delete - I am unable to find any reliable, independent coverage of this journal, so I guess we should delete, though the creator's reasoning on the talk page is quite persuasive. --Cerebellum (talk) 00:32, 1 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
