 * keep sourcing isn't great, but, while a podcast, is a reliable podcast published by the American Anthropologist that provides non-trivial coverage of the group. There isn't a lot else out there that counts toward WP:N (lots of passing mentions though) but my searching finds that this is a long established group that meets regularly and publishes meaningful (reasonably well cited) work by experts in the field.  If we had a WP:NJOURNALS that had consensus, this is the kind of thing I'd want it including. Hobit (talk) 13:37, 13 February 2024 (UTC)

 * Delete. Fails GNG and ORG. I found some passing mentions in news items but there is not enough coverage that indicates this organization merits inclusion on Wikipedia. And sorry to say - this is not an academic journal. It is an organization that is involved in scholarly work. Just because they produce an academic journal doesn't make this organization worthy of inclusion. ---Steve Quinn (talk) 02:11, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

 * Soft keep. The American Anthropologist podcast's nontrivial coverage gives me pause, and some GoogleScholar sifting is suggestive of coverage, after filtering out the name of its journal from results. — Preceding unsigned comment added by P-Makoto (talk • contribs) 06:15, 28 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Hello, P-Makoto, what is "soft keep"? We have policies on "soft delete" but I'm not familiar with a soft keep. Liz <sup style="font-family: Times New Roman; color: #006400;">Read! Talk! 23:31, 28 February 2024 (UTC)
 * I think I must've mixed up my words and probably meant to write "weak keep". P-Makoto (she/her) (talk) 01:46, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
 * I get it. At this point, I think I've reviewed and closed hundreds of AFD discussions and I've seen "Soft Keep" about a dozen times and I always meant to ask about it. I thought there might have been a line in a policy page I had forgotten. Liz <sup style="font-family: Times New Roman; color: #006400;">Read! Talk! 22:38, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
