[edit] Fmttm
It's just an insult page. Something seems to have gone amiss with the Afd process so I'm completing it.Dlyons493 Talk 15:58, 2 October 2005 (UTC)
- Speedy delete - nonsense. --MacRusgail 16:03, 2 October 2005 (UTC)
- Keep Seems to be a real magazine but if it is kept it needs to have the attack removed. Qaz (talk) 16:09, 2 October 2005 (UTC)
- Regular delete it's not really an attack page, just an article about a fanzine which was vandalised. Still, I'm voting to delete as not notable, and also because of the shaky precedent of keeping an article on a fanzine. There's already a link on the Middlesbrough F.C. page.

- What kind of circulation does a magazine need to be included? Just wondering. I often wonder when trying to decide on books and magazines how "big" we should require them to be. Qaz (talk) 19:16, 2 October 2005 (UTC)
- That's a very good question. I don't think there's a simple numerical answer (i.e. 50,000 copies average sold for 3+ years) as such stats are easy to fudge and not necessarily indicitive of much of anything... for example, many free local "shopper" publications have circulation into the hundreds of thousands, that doesn't really make them notable. In my opinion, the fact that this one self-identifies as a "fanzine" is probably enough that it isn't an encylcopedic topic. Certainly no scope beyond Middlesbrough F.C., so in that article it belongs. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 21:36, 7 October 2005 (UTC)

- Delete. Non-notable (small circulation) zine. Andrew pmk | Talk 19:19, 2 October 2005 (UTC)
- Speedy Delete under criterion A6. On further note, the magazine itself does not seem to be notable, as I cannot find any more than five or so relevant Google results. –ArmadniGeneral (talk • contribs) 20:46, 2 October 2005 (UTC)
- Comment: If you look at the history, this page has been repeatedly vandalized during its brief existence. I've just reverted it to the last non-attack version, but this may not last. When voting on this article, please make sure you look at earlier revisions too. Ilmari Karonen 20:54, 2 October 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Super localy limited scope. Gtabary 22:54, 2 October 2005 (UTC)
