loosely defined; it's not the same as a List of psychology bibliographic databases. Fgnievinski (talk) 00:08, 30 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Question: should we just create a category of "Psychology Databases" for all the blue links? That seems to be the main purpose of this page in any case. Noah
  • Delete per nom. Many of the entries in this list wouldn't belong in a category "psychology databases", as they are much broader than psychology. --Randykitty (talk) 17:52, 30 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Close to half the entries are red links anyway and several others aren't primarily psych databases. Pubmed for example while it has lots of good psych articles is not just for psychology. Also, according to Wikipedia:Notability#Stand-alone_lists: "Notability of lists (whether titled as "List of Xs" or "Xs") is based on the group. One accepted reason why a list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources" which I don't think applies to this list. --MadScientistX11 (talk) 01:31, 31 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
