You caught the publication at a difficult time to defend itself from this - it is registered (and archived) at the Library of Congress, but the editors are in the process of re-sending the physical print copies, which were seemingly not received in the first mailing. It would be easy to point to this if the LoC had the archive up, but it is still in-progress. This would count as verifiable, permament, and independent. 130.64.67.14 (talk) 18:14, 19 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, giving the IP visitor the benefit of the doubt. Chutznik (talk) 23:26, 19 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- But the ip editor has not pointed to anything that would make the publication notable. duffbeerforme (talk) 06:10, 22 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, sorry - I am the page creator. I can see the concerns about notability, but like he/she said above, the journal is in the LoC (in one form or another). Plus, you can tell they've kept the page (and the publication) up-to-date and professional. It may be on the fence in terms of notability, but it should always err on the side of keeping when it is a complete, well-kept and informative article. Removal would surely make W worse, not better.

- WP:PRETTY and WP:NOHARM. And who is they, WP:COI? duffbeerforme (talk) 06:10, 22 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  - My arguments aren't that it's "just fine" so leave it, they're that it's clearly an informative, beneficial article to Wikipedia. WP:BURO As an editor, you need to be subjective. You are lobbying for the removal of a useful article. Notability is borderline, so why lawyer it? "They" is what I assume the IP to be, the current editor(s). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Afacini (talk • contribs) 18:00, 22 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    - Notability has not been shown to be borderline, notibility is not here. Plus WP:ITSUSEFUL. duffbeerforme (talk) 07:31, 23 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
