[edit] As this article is currently written, this magazine is not shown to be important enough for an article

Please see Wikipedia:Notability:

"A subject is notable if it has been documented in multiple, non-trivial, independent, published sources....Notability is used to determine whether a subject warrants an individual article in its own right on Wikipedia.

* * * *
"Notability is a consequence of the official policies that Wikipedia is not a directory of businesses, websites, persons, etc., and that Wikipedia content is verifiable (from independent sources)."

and Wikipedia:Verifiability:

"If an article topic has no reputable, reliable, third-party sources, Wikipedia should not have an article on that topic."

There is absolutely nothing in this article that identifies the subject as being important (notable) enough to have an article included in an encyclopedia. My feeling is that it actually meets Criterion 7 of Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion:Articles:

"Unremarkable people, groups, companies and web content. An article about a real person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content that does not assert the importance or significance of its subject. If the assertion is controversial or there has been a previous AfD, the article should be nominated for AfD instead...."

I do note that a reference has been added. It would improve the article to quote relevant portions of the reference in the article itself, and finding and using additional references—the guideline asks for multiple sources. This article can still be greatly improved.


I have provided further information at Talk:Knave (magazine) that is equally relevant to this article.

Please note that my motive here is to encourage the improvement of articles; thereby improving Wikipedia's content. This is not a "witch hunt" as others seem to believe.—Nicer1 (talk contribs) 19:37, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
