The article International Journal of Mobile and Blended Learning has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- No independent refs. No sign of coming close to meeting WP:GNG. Created by editor with a similar name to the editor of the journal.
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

I notice that you've added some more content to International Journal of Mobile and Blended Learning. None of this content is significant, indepth and independent, which is what is needed to meet the WP:GNG. I would encourage you to read WP:42. Stuartyeates (talk) 23:22, 16 July 2012 (UTC)
- It's not clear to me what the further expectations are for a page that describes a peer reviewed academic journal. IJMBL has a very similar page to many other journals. The links suggested above do not sensibly apply to this type of page. I would appreciate being directed to a suggested exemplar. 130.123.104.22 (talk) 03:03, 17 July 2012 (UTC)
- See Nature (journal) for example. Stuartyeates (talk) 20:23, 17 July 2012 (UTC)

I've added a third party reference but now I'm leaving this for other members of the international association for mobile learning (who's page someone already deleted) to argue this one. Dparsonsnz (talk) 21:56, 9 January 2014 (UTC)

I added this page as a service to public information based on my leading role in the academic mobile learning community but have no interest in attempting to change it to meet other criteria. I will, however, inform the academics who run this conference series. Dparsonsnz (talk) 22:00, 9 January 2014 (UTC)

Hello, Dparsonsnz. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article MLearn, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.
All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.
If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:
- Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
- Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
- Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
- Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.
Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.
For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. — Coffee // have a cup // beans // 22:50, 16 January 2014 (UTC)
Please note that I have no direct connection with the IADIS Mobile Learning conference. I attended once and have acted as a reviewer but am not and have never been an organizer 130.123.104.22 (talk) 23:44, 16 January 2014 (UTC)
