:If those were the only problems, deletion would not be necessary. However, I do not think that this topic is notable. The news coverage cited in the article draw extensively on a single press release.[http://www2.le.ac.uk/ebulletin/news/press-releases/2000-2009/2006/07/nparticle.2006-07-28.2448323827] The research itself appears to be published in a minor journal. A Google Scholar search for the phrase, “Satisfaction with Life Index,” found only eight hits, some of which predated the research described in the Wikipedia article.[http://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=%E2%80%9CSatisfaction+with+Life+Index%E2%80%9D&hl=en&lr=&btnG=Search] A search for the phrase, “World Map of Happiness,” got only a dozen hits.[http://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=%E2%80%9CWorld+Map+of+Happiness%E2%80%9D&hl=en&lr=&btnG=Search] The article that the map is based on has been cited only two times.[http://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=%22A+Global+Projection+of+Subjective+Well-being%3A+A+Challenge%22&hl=en&lr=&btnG=Search] I cannot justify keeping this article.--[[User:FreeKresge|FreeKresge]] ([[User talk:FreeKresge|talk]]) 19:16, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
