Asian Economic and Social Review[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Non-notable journal. Google search does not even find a homepage, although an apparently newly-created page was just added to the article (seems like this page was created in response to the PRODding of the article). Hence, the journal does exist and even has an ISSN. However, there are no independent secondary sources and the journal does not appear to be included in any databases (let alone major selective ones). The link in the article to the homepage goes to a completely different journal (also non-notable, without a single article published yet). The journal has not published a single article yet: creation of a WP article is premature. Does not meet WP:NJournals or WP:GNG. Hence: delete. Crusio (talk) 09:21, 12 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Comment, The text of the article is copied verbatim from their site's 'About Us' page. Likely to be self-promotion. We can credit them for finding a good sounding name, but alas for WP that's not enough... MakeSense64 (talk) 21:03, 12 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
