It looks as though this discussion is such that no admin will dare to delete the article on its basis, but that doesn't mean that the article satisfies Knowledge's inclusion criteria; it simply means that no admin will apply those criteria in the face of "keep" !votes from a fellow admin along with a few editors who have opined without sufficient investigation.

And although I agree that this journal would be an RS, being peer-reviewed does not guarantee that. There is currently a proliferation of very low-quality e-journals and I think many of them will not survive and even if they do, won't ever be noticed/notable. Except perhaps for being bad... (see
