Article PRODded with reason "Non-notable journal. Not indexed in any selective databases, no independent sources. Does not meet WP:NJournals or WP:GNG." Article dePRODded with reason "deprod, this desevers an AfD. I found two sources which mention its significance in at least few sentences (snippet view prevents checking if the discussion is in-depth), but this is still much more than for most other journals (which may be more cited but never discussed)." However, two in-passing mentions (one in a non-independent source) does not satisfy any notability criterion. PROD reason stands, hence: Delete. Randykitty ( talk) 10:20, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

- Weak keep. Just like we cannot assume the coverage is in-depth, we cannot assume it is not. As I said, most journals get ZERO coverage, that this one gets some makes it much more notable (in terms of GNG) than most others, even of those others have higher citation counts and such (and therefore are meet
WP:NJOURNAL, which this one, admittedly, does not). Still, as I cannot indeed confirm that the sources contain more than mentions in passing, and I couldn't locate anything better, my vote is 'week'.PS. I am fine with merging per comments below as an alternative to deletion. --

- all, the more, in dubious cases the solution is to merge without prejudice to recreation when notability becomes unquestionable. Lembit Staan ( talk) 20:47, 18 November 2020 (UTC)
- Merging to Polish Centre of Mediterranean Archaeology University of Warsaw would be preferable to deletion. No opinion on deletion for now. Headbomb { t · c · p · b} 14:22, 18 November 2020 (UTC)
- merge into parent article is the standard solution in such cases. Valid information, even if does not warrant a separate page. Lembit Staan ( talk) 20:45, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

- Merge to Polish Centre of Mediterranean Archaeology University of Warsaw. I wouldn't be surprised if there were more sources out there, since this has been published since 1966 and the two sources that Piotrus mentions do hint at notability, but it's beyond my ability to find them given they're probably on paper and in Polish. Merging to the publisher is a sensible alternative to deletion if the notability is borderline/unproven. – Joe ( talk) 18:14, 22 November 2020 (UTC)
