CAPTAIN RAJU (T) 23:48, 10 January 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment .  According to the journal's website , it is included in the Polish Ministry of Education and Science periodical index (40 points) and the ERIH PLUS database.  Are these considered non-selective?  Eastmain ( talk • contribs ) 00:46, 11 January 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep , quick google books search ( [5] ) shows that articles are widely cited in English literature on the topic.  Marcelus ( talk ) 08:46, 11 January 2024 (UTC) Changing the vote Marcelus ( talk ) 08:52, 12 January 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment : A smattering of citations is to be expected for any scientific journal.  I don't see the number of citations that would indicate notability.  -- Randykitty ( talk ) 10:01, 11 January 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] WP:JOURNALCRIT : Criterion 2: The journal is frequently cited by other reliable sources. Marcelus ( talk ) 12:46, 11 January 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Yep, it all depends on what you think is "frequently" and whether you perhaps have sources that confirm this... -- Randykitty ( talk ) 14:11, 11 January 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete .  Not indexed in any selective databases.  GScholar shows citations in single digits, sorry User:Marcelus but I don't see GNG here.  PS.  I started a deletion at pl wiki: pl:Wikipedia:Poczekalnia/artykuły/2024:01:12:Silva Iaponicarum .  -- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | reply here 03:40, 12 January 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Ok, I trust your judgment on this, I'm not fully familiar with the GNG for scientific journals. Marcelus ( talk ) 08:52, 12 January 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Marcelus See Wikipedia:Notability (academic journals) . This may survive on pl wiki which is pretty inclusionist for such entities, but English Wikipedia has a bit higher standards.

It exists, but I can't find anything more that can be sourced to anything but itself. — David Eppstein ( talk ) 06:26, 23 January 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment . Kept on pl wiki, which is much more inclusionist and open to counting votes. -- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | reply here 02:25, 24 January 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate.
