The Well-Appointed House
The problem isn't the presence of those sources, but how they're being used. It's not encyclopedic to just list a bunch of media appearances under "Publications: Magazines", "Publications: Books" or "On-Air Mentions" headers — but the same sources would be perfectly valid if you used them to support substantive statements about the website that were supported by those sources. A lot of the sources in the article are behind paywalls, so I can't read them myself to give you a direct example drawn from the existing sources, but I'll give you a similar example based on another article: if you used this article to support the statement that "Brie Larson was nominated for an Academy Award", then that would be notable and encyclopedic — but if you used the exact same reference to support the statement that "Brie Larson has been covered in The Telegraph" instead, then that's not adding anything notable or valuable to the article. The context of what the article is covering her for is what's encyclopedic and noteworthy, and what the article should be cited to support a statement about — the fact that the article exists is not a noteworthy or useful thing to say in and of itself, if "the article exists" is the only thing you're sourcing to that article. Hope that helps a bit. Bearcat (talk) 20:18, 6 March 2016 (UTC)
