Talk:Zine World
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Written by "Slushpile" which is a zine and part of the "Underground Literary Alliance" which is the only sourced. Historically inaccurate. --Richhoncho 10:28, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
I couldn't find any mainstream/corporate media mention of A Reader's Guide, but I can assert the historical accuracy of stating that ARG has been the most important zine review/zine news magazine from the time I entered the zine scene in 1996 up until the present. It's a very notable -- if not the most notable -- review zine of underground writing in the U.S., which is why I made the entry here at Wikipedia. Also of historical accuracy: several members of the ULA met through ARG. I'm a founder of the ULA (Steve Kostecke), and can attest to this. I highly recommend that Wikipedia allow entries for "underground"/non-mainstream publications which are of very high regard within the underground community, especially ones like ARG which have been around for over ten years.
