The result was delete. I will place a copy in the Article Incubator which will give the author time to work on it; it should not be returned to the mainspace unless it meets WP:NJournals. JohnCD (talk) 15:06, 24 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Not in Ulrich's. It has only been published for 3 years, Judging by Google Scholar, none of the articles show any indication that they have every been cited anywhere else. Not in any major index. I'm willing to be rather tolerant about journals from outside the major science publishing countries, but this one is by any standard not yet notable. Crusio proded, Abductive prod-2d, but the prod was removed by the author. DGG ( talk ) 04:20, 17 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. The editor seems to be a respectable academic: http://www.ece.queensu.ca/directory/faculty/Gazor.html There is no Wikipedia article on Saeed Gazor, though, and his page at Queen's University doesn't mention the journal, but does mention a different one. Apart from that, I agree with DGG. - Eastmain (talk) 07:31, 17 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I originally prodded. In addition to what DGG says, the journal does not appear likely to become notable anytime soon, as it looks like they only published some issues in 2007 and 2008 and the journal evidently is moribund. It's perhaps ironic that the prod tag was removed by the author a day after it had, in fact, already expired... --Crusio (talk) 10:52, 17 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment of the author Please give me more time (e.g. end of Jan.) to improve the content and satisfy the conditions. --Isfahani (talk) 18:59, 19 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom and Crusio. Does not satisfy any of the criteria of Wikipedia:Notability (academic journals) which provides the most useful guidance here. The journal is fairly new, not yet indexed anywhere, and there is no significant citability of papers published there. It is not likely that waiting another few weeks or even another couple of months would change these basic facts (in fact, as Crusio says, there are indications that the journal is moribund).
