Response to: Proposed deletion of INFORMS Transactions on Education

Hello Randykitty. I've brought your perspective to the journal's editor and publisher. It sounds like the journal will apply to get a listing in SCOPUS or another of the databases, that seems more straightforward than trying to navigate the fuzzier criteria.

Is there some way we can hold the page in place while that is done? Or if you need to delete it, can you do something so that it can be recovered when you are satisfied the criteria are met. It would be vexing to lose the work that was put into it.

Thanks.
