WT:JCW

This talk page is to discuss the Journals Cited by Wikipedia compilation in general.

If you spot a false positive in WP:JCW/TAR or WP:JCW/PUB, you can report it here or edit WP:JCW/EXCLUDE yourself.
If you want to discuss pages related to The Wikipedia CiteWatch, use WT:CITEWATCH instead.
See also User talk:JL-Bot, which will have information on the latest tweaks being developed.

Cite Q

Question: When a citation is embedded in the Cite Q template, does it still get counted in the "Journals cited by Wikipedia" totals displayed on these pages? Thanks in advance, Esculenta (talk) 13:31, 11 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It doesn't, no. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 13:48, 11 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Google links

seem to be missing particle "search?" in the URL, e.g.:

I'll investigate. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 06:14, 1 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Fgnievinski: should be fixed now. Good catch. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 06:21, 1 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2023-08-01/In focus

Here's a piece about the history of JCW I wrote for the Signpost. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 06:14, 1 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That's a very interesting read.GobsPint (talk) 02:48, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The State Journal disambiguation

Hello @Headbomb: I hope you are well 🙂 If you have a minute, could you fix the target on Wikipedia:WikiProject Academic Journals/Journals cited by Wikipedia/S58 from "The State Journal," which is now a disambiguation link, to The State Journal (West Virginia), which is what the article cited is referring to? I don't know how to fix this myself. Cheers! Johnson524 16:09, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is a bot-compiled list of whatever's in |journal=. What's important is that The State Journal dab mentions The State Journal (West Virginia), and that the article points to the correct journal. Both do. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 19:50, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Headbomb: Just making sure it's not a mistake, cheers! (Oh, and btw, that signpost article you linked above was a really interesting read, thanks for sharing it 🙂) Johnson524 21:57, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Journals that seemingly exist, but don't (JCW)

Islamic Studies (journal) (325 in 281)
Environmental Conservation (journal) (170 in 155)
Women's Studies (journal) (160 in 139)
Waste Management (journal) (153 in 116)
Food Microbiology (journal) (89 in 73)
Biophysical Chemistry (journal) (76 in 61)
PaleoAnthropology (journal) (76 in 47)
Environmental Geology (journal) (73 in 70)
Marine Engineering (journal) (47 in 39)
Video Games (journal) (46 in 44)
Religious Education (journal) (35 in 32)
BioResources (journal) (34 in 32)
Printed Matter (journal) (31 in 6)
THE Journal (journal) (29 in 21)
Continuing Medical Education (journal) (25 in 25)
Radiation Oncology (journal) (25 in 21)
Climate Change (journal) (24 in 21)
Chemical Engineering (journal) (24 in 20)
Mental Retardation (journal) (22 in 20)
Systems Engineering (journal) (18 in 12)

The above journals differ from regular articles only by capitalization, e.g. Islamic Studies redirects to Islamic studies, making it look like we have a journal called Islamic Studies in WP:JCW, when in reality we don't. I just created the Women's Studies article, but it would be nice to have help for the others. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 14:02, 14 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
