Journal of International Management

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Not sourced, and notability not established. JDDJS (talk) 00:49, 10 August 2014 (UTC)
 * provisional keep. Just because the creator is too lazy to come up with refs, it doesn't mean the journal isn't notable. It's published by Elsevier, for starters. And have a look at Notability (academic journals), specifically where it says "For the purpose of Criterion 1, having an impact factor assigned by the Institute for Scientific Information's Journal Citation Reports always qualifies under Criterion 1", ie, it's probably notable. The impact factor (as mentioned in the entry) can be seen here and here. Needs refs and some cleanup. Hairhorn (talk) 01:05, 10 August 2014 (UTC)

 * Keep - It's notable, satisfies Wikipedia:Notability (academic journals). XeroxKleenex (talk) 05:52, 10 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep Sizable impact factor, index in Social Sciences Citation Index and Scopus. Clear pass of NJournals. Article is bad, I did some cleanup and added a source for the IF, but that is no reason for deletion. Nom is reminded of WP:BEFORE. I suggest to withdraw the nom to save the community time and effort. --Randykitty (talk) 16:56, 10 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep Just add more reliable sources, academic journal, is notable. Strawberrie Fields (talk) 19:35, 10 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment Although I agree with the !vote, I don't agree with the rationale behind it. There exist tens of thousands of academic journals and many of them are completely forgettable (i.e., not notable), so being about an academic journal is in itself not a reason to keep an article. --Randykitty (talk) 20:15, 10 August 2014 (UTC)


 * Keep per everyone above. – Davey 2010 •  (talk)  21:24, 10 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Nomination withdrawn/Snow keep either way is fine way with me. JDDJS (talk) 02:34, 14 August 2014 (UTC)
