See the results of a Worldcat search for 'Jahresbericht über die fortschritte der chemischen technologie'. It looks like there is a more-or-less continuous publication with varying titles. It might be worth including all the variant titles in the article and to create redirects here from all the variant titles. Regarding notability, I see that the journal is held by a number of major libraries such as MIT, so I would vote to remove the notability tag. Unfortunately there is no article on the German Wikipedia. EdJohnston (talk) 04:34, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• It would indeed be good to include variant titles. I would counsel against using WorlCat as a source, as I have seen all too often that its info is not up to date or even outright incorrect. Given the long history of this journal, I'm rather confident that it must be notable. However, at this point the bare stub we now have does not show this. Nor do I think that the fact that a certain library holds a journal confers notability. I'm a bit short on time right now, but WP:JWG gives some tips on how to find (some) sources that show notability according to WP:NJournals (but note that NJournals currently is heavily contested, see its talk page). Hope this helps. --Randykitty (talk) 10:17, 13 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
