Notability

edit

This journal isn't a paragon of notability, I suspect, but I do recall reliable source mentioning the founding of this whole series of journals. I.e, Frontiers of ... in China. This was a cooperation between two of the largest publishers in the world, Springer-Verlag and Higher Education Press, which is, if I'm correct, kind of an academic publishing arm of the Chinese government. That we do not have an article on a publishing giant like HEP is telling!

There seems to be some support for stubs on journals, so that when a journal is cited, a link can easily be made to at least information about the journal.

It may, in fact, be more appropriate to have a list of these Frontiers publications, all of them. I noticed, originally, and was inspired to create this page by, Frontiers of Law in China. I copied the format from that page, which has no more information than this one. Since I believe I can find source on the founding of the Frontiers series, maybe that would be the best of both worlds, with redirects from each specific journal page, unless a particular journal turns out to have some unique notability. --Abd (talk) 21:21, 23 September 2010 (UTC)Reply

As a researcher, I disagree. I expect fo find a wikipedia page for every journal. This is a journal. There is useful information listed about it, such as ISO 4 abbreviation. I am citing an article from this journal and have searched wikipedia for this info. Keep the page.Vadim Makarov (talk) 09:53, 17 April 2017 (UTC)Reply
