is it not excessive to have this table of their relatively non-notable imprints with weak sourcing? im in favor of removal or at least trimming/reformatting Sr1jj (talk) 14:52, 7 October 2025 (UTC)Reply

It's excessive to have anything remain in any article if it's without adequate sourcing or at least a warning to readers that the material is sourced poorly, if at all.

OmniScriptum is designated as non-academic by the Norwegian Scientific Index,[1] and its subsidiary Lambert Academic Publishing has been described as a predatory vanity press which does "not apply the basic standards of academic publishing such as peer-review, editorial or proof-reading processes."[2]
has become
OmniScriptum is listed as non-academic by the Norwegian Scientific Index,[3][4]

Notes
