Weak delete: I'm not certain that this journal fails WP:NJOURNALS, but I'm also struggling to prove that it passes WP:NJOURNALS. I'm mostly turning up things about the 18thC Athenäum after which this journal is named. As a scholar of Romanticism, I would not say it is influential or historically important in the English-language branch of the field. (I don't know anything about it.) But it's longstanding enough that I wouldn't be surprised if a German speaker turned up evidence of its importance in Germany. Unless that additional evidence arrives, though, I think deletion is appropriate. ~ oulfis 🌸(talk) 01:05, 6 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Weak delete for lack of evidence of notability, and lack of anything to say beyond its existence and editorial board. I ran across this one a few weeks ago while trying to find out whether we have an article on the Athenaeum journal founded 1913 in Pavia — we don't, and I didn't create one because I wasn't convinced it was notable. But at least that one has a longer history. This one is too recent for an argument along those lines. —David Eppstein (talk) 22:38, 8 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
