Astronomical School’s Report

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable journal. As it currently stands, the article has 2 independent sources (references 4 and 5), both primary, indicating that the journal can be used to publish the results of doctoral theses. There is no indication how selective this listing is, but it looks like a rather complete list of journals published by Ukrainian institutions. All other "references" are from the journal itself. The last one (ref. 6) is actually rather interesting: the journal here calculated an "unofficial" impact factor. At 0.043, this is so low that it actually comes close to proving the absence of notability (insofar as the absence of something ever can be proven). In short, there are no independent sources discussing the journal, it is not listed in any selective databases, and it is hardly ever cited by any other journals. Does not meet WP:GNG or WP:NJournals. Hence: delete. Randykitty (talk) 11:14, 17 January 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete - not even close to passing any of WP:JOURNALCRIT. I cannot see any GNG claim (but there may be one in non-English sources, I cannot know). Tigraan (talk) 12:34, 20 January 2016 (UTC)
