In fact, HolQeD is a refereed journal which has actually been catalogued by the
Library of Congress like any other "legitimate" linguistics journal.  For the
librarians amongst us, here is the relevant serial record from OCLC (Online
Catalogue of the Library of Congress - though OCLC is now a separate for-profit
operation):

AFAIK, Trek fanzines usually aren't catalogued in a national library database
like this.  This alone raises HolQed above the level of "fanzine".
