Journal of Pakistan Medical Students

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Relatively new journal that has not yet had time to establish itself as notable. No independent sources, not covered in any major selective databases. Does not meet WP:NJournals or WP:GNG. Guillaume2303 (talk) 06:41, 1 December 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete as lacking in-depth coverage in reliable, independent third-party sources. Should such sources be integrated into the article, feel free to leave a note on my talk page and I'll take another look. Stuartyeates (talk) 04:49, 10 December 2011 (UTC)
