[edit]Why article references I added was removed ? I find that articles are related to the subject. Bigsigma1 (talk) 06:39, 1 January 2018 (UTC)
- There were several reasons why I removed this addition. I cited WP:ELNO, in particular #1, in my edit summary, but there are also concerns about reliability. These papers were just published and have not been vetted (reviewed) by the mathematical community and this isn't offset by the publisher's business model which has been considered predatory for some of its journals. After these papers have received some sort of favorable review, they may be included in a further reading section, but not as external links. --Bill Cherowitzo (talk) 18:16, 1 January 2018 (UTC)
- I see, I thought the journals of this publisher are reliable. Bigsigma1 (talk) 08:29, 2 January 2018 (UTC)
- No doubt that some are and I am not in a position to say anything about this particular journal. Our best policy would be to wait until the articles are reviewed by some authority (like Math Reviews) and that would remove any stigmata about the articles. --Bill Cherowitzo (talk) 18:20, 2 January 2018 (UTC)
