Proposed Deletion Reg.
editHello, @Randykitty, You have marked this page for WP:PRD stating that
Non-notable journal. Not indexed in any selective databases. A Google search gives 113 hits, most of them issues of ths joornal in Google Books, but no in-depth independent sources. Does not meet WP:NJournals or WP:GNG.
However, in my opinion it meets C3 of WP:JOURNALCRIT as per this and C1 as per previous and further.
You said it gives only 113 hits on Google Search, for me it is showing About 1,140 results. For indexing, it is listed at various reputed libraries in India and abroad, such as:
- University of Melbourne,
- University of Melbourne2,
- VP Law College,
- University of Osmania Syllabus, Listing,
- Indian Law Institute
- OP Jindal Global University,
- German Union Catalogue of Serials (ZDB),
- National University of Singapore,
- Tamil Nadu National Law University
- West Bengal Judicial Academy
- Heidelberg University
- Cambridge University Press.
If you need information on citations, you can find that through Google, or let me know.
This article meets two of the WP:JOURNALCRIT separately, and therefore, I find it suitable to be kept.
Now, therefore, in light of the above, I request you to kindly remove the WP:PRD from the Article.
If you do not reply or act within 6 days, I shall be removing the template myself ex-parte. Thank you, User4edits (talk) 02:08, 20 July 2022 (UTC)
- Hi. I'm afraid that a single mention in a two paragraph newspaper article is not sufficient to meet C3. And library catalogs don't contribute to notability under C1 either. And when I click on the link you give for a Google search, I still get only 113 results. You get a bit more if you click "In order to show you the most relevant results, we have omitted some entries very similar to the 118 already displayed. If you like, you can repeat the search with the omitted results included", but that text really means that this doesn't give anything more of interest. So I don't see how this meets C1 either. Of course you can remove the PROD, but in that case I will take the article to AFD. Thanks. --Randykitty (talk) 06:45, 20 July 2022 (UTC)
