[edit] The Buzz (SFU)

This doesn't really seem notable, and there is already an article on Simon Fraser University's newspaper The Peak. Delete --Image:Ottawa flag.png Spinboy 22:03, 2 October 2005 (UTC)

• Not too sure why it isn't considered informative that there are business-specific student newsletters out there. I am an SFU student, and have had discussions with many students at other Canadian universities, who were all quite surprised and interested to hear that The Buzz exists. Also, how is it like an advertisement? All other Canadian student newspapers' entries seem to follow a similar structure. Keep 24.207.70.210 22:06, 3 October 2005 (UTC)pkthree

• • Anonymous users don't get to vote. That being said, read it, it's very advertisement orientated and is no way in keeping with Wikipedia's neutrality policy. It's also not a newspaper, it's a newsletter that is sent out (as I recall) 3 times a year. That's hardly worth the space here. --Image:Ottawa flag.png Spinboy 23:43, 3 October 2005 (UTC)

• • • OK, I am anonymous no more. I am the one who created the entry. I based the style on The Peak's entry, which I see has also been marked as "advertisement" material. The Buzz prints monthly with a break during the exam periods, which would add up to 9 times a year, although I'm not sure why the fact that it is monthly should make it any less worthy. Honestly, The Buzz is a not-for-profit and isn't looking for fame or fortune by being listed on Wikipedia. We're just trying to show other students (and perhaps other Canadians in general) that business student newsletters/newspapers do exist. I'd definitely appreciate specific input on how to keep the entry as neutral; I've looked at the other entries under the Canadian Student Newspapers and really can't see why you have a specific beef with this one.
