Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Caribbean Journal of International Relations & Diplomacy (2nd nomination)
I don't dispute the specific facts regarding this journal presented by Randykitty (most notably that this is not a journal indexed in a selective database) and believe this is a GF re-nomination by RK. However, I am somewhat of the mind that the article should be kept on the basis that notable people have published in it, a fact which - while obliviated by  - would nonetheless help it meet a liberal reading of Criterion 1 of ournals, namely that {{Xt|"the journal is considered by reliable sources to be influential in its subject area".}} In point of this fact I note that notable people have made the choice to publish in this journal, including Arthur Snell,{{cite journal|last1=Snell|first1=Arthur|title=Conflict in Syria: An Historical Perspective|journal=Caribbean Journal of International Relations and Diplomacy|volume=4|issue=1|url=http://journals.sta.uwi.edu/iir/index.asp?action=viewPastAbstract&articleId=416&issueId=73}} Benoit Pelletier,{{cite journal|last1=Pelltier|first1=Benoit|title=The Abolition of Appeals to the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council in Canada and the Evolution of the Role of the Supreme Court of Canada|journal=Caribbean Journal of International Relations & Diplomacy|date=2016|volume=4|issue=1|url=http://libraries.sta.uwi.edu/journals/ojs/index.php/iir/issue/view/121}} Rose-Marie Belle Antoine,{{cite journal|last1=Belle Antoine|first1=Rose-Marie|title=Guest Editorial|journal=Caribbean Journal of International Relations & Diplomacy|date=2016|volume=4|issue=1|url=http://libraries.sta.uwi.edu/journals/ojs/index.php/iir/issue/view/121}} Winston Dookeran{{cite book|last1=Dookeran|first1=Winston|title=Crisis and Promise in the Caribbean: Politics and Convergence|date=2016|publisher=Routledge|isbn=9781317157748|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=LLu1CwAAQBAJ&pg=PT218&lpg=PT218&dq=%22Caribbean+Journal+of+International+Relations+%26+Diplomacy%22&source=bl&ots=Ub6gfaVw7C&sig=ZBB6OozZh8x1zR8zsFljhInoTAU&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjlyZbw6ebUAhXGOyYKHSjbBr0Q6AEIWDAJ#v=onepage&q=%22Caribbean%20Journal%20of%20International%20Relations%20%26%20Diplomacy%22&f=false}}, Richard Bernal{{cite book|last1=Bernal|first1=Richard|title=The Influence of Small States on Superpowers: Jamaica and U.S. Foreign Policy|date=2015|publisher=Lexington|isbn=1498508170|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=2DASCgAAQBAJ&pg=PA11&lpg=PA11&dq=%22Caribbean+Journal+of+International+Relations+%26+Diplomacy%22&source=bl&ots=5Sbi92lag6&sig=8h5FcMfR1DT55bDypiUlaNQjLd0&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjlyZbw6ebUAhXGOyYKHSjbBr0Q6AEIWzAK#v=onepage&q=%22Caribbean%20Journal%20of%20International%20Relations%20%26%20Diplomacy%22&f=false}}, and others.

(For full disclosure, I was the creator of the article, though I have no |COI to declare regarding it, pecuniary or otherwise.) On the other hand, I would lean towards this being right on the edge. I made this early in my WP career and, had I the benefit of experience, I might have invested my energy elsewhere rather than in an article on an unindexed journal. If the decision comes down to delete, I won't be really torn up
