If we didn't have a notability guideline on porn stars, this would be our worst one. It's ridiculously selective, and fails the sniff test in the humanities. It should be a slam dunk that anybody who has published in PMLA or Critical Inquiry should, at the very least, have an article outlining that work. Absolute dead-on common sense, and if this were true it would immediately boost the quality of articles in this area astronomically. If I didn't suspect that it would get ripped out by a mob of deletionists, I'd work my way through the last decade of Critical Inquiry putting in summaries of the work published in it. But I won't, because I'm not willing to invest that kind of time in order to have someone tag it for deletion.
