This article was tagged for speedy deletion under section a7 of the criteria for speedy deletion but a reviewing administrator or uninvolved experienced editor declined the request on the basis that: "peer-reviewed scholarly journal" is a claim of significance, as is "one of the first to devote a lasting web presence to the discussion of literature, theory, criticism, and the arts". This article should not be tagged again for speedy deletion under the same criterion and, unless a valid, separate speedy deletion basis exists, further attempts at deleting this article should be made via the proposed deletion process (prod) if uncontroversial, or the article taken to articles for deletion (AfD) for debate on the merits.

Note: this template should be removed once the associated article has survived an AfD debate; or has been significantly changed such that further speedy deletion requests are unlikely.

Contested deletion[edit]

This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because:

1. the subject is regularly cited in academic print media 2. it was one of the first web-based journals featuring book reviews, literary criticism, etc. 3. a print anthology is forthcoming from Bloomsbury
