Talk:BMJ Health & Care Informatics

Contested deletion

This page is not unambiguously promotional, because... This is one of many respected medical journals described in encyclopedic terms such as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_BMJ If you can assist with where chnages need to be made it would be appreciated.

In the meantime I have made the topic more neutral and removed link-outs to social media and person-specific information.

I agree... seems pretty neutral at this point. Should not be deleted. Furorimpius (talk) 10:38, 5 April 2016 (UTC)

Actually, it still was promotional. I have now removed all promotional language and added independent references that show that this journal actually is notable. And, really, you really want to compare this rather obscure journal to The BMJ, one of the most respected medical journals around? --Randykitty (talk) 11:50, 5 April 2016 (UTC)

I was suggesting the BMJ page as a template for the tone and wording, while I do not agree that the page was promotional in nature I will accept the changes as made. As it happens The BMJ do informally provide support for our 'obscure' journal and I would suggest that such personal opinions are left out of this review process.

Please sign your posts by adding four tildes (~~~~) at the end. "obscure" is actually reasonably objective here, given that the journal is only indexed in very few selective databases and covers a rather specialized field. I understand that as an editor of this journal, you may think differently about this. --Randykitty (talk) 12:11, 5 April 2016 (UTC)

I take your point :-) and thanks for your help. Garethbaxendale (talk) 12:15, 5 April 2016 (UTC)
