Barracuda (magazine)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Tagged since 2009 as unsourced. An early WP:PROD was contested on the grounds that it was a real magazine. Now it's just a non-notable website. The only coverage in Google books was "I ran into Julie at a party thrown by Barracuda Magazine, which is run by a friend of mine" – which I suggest is direct evidence of non-notability. – Fayenatic  L ondon 20:45, 22 December 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete I've flagged the WP:COI given the substantial proportion of the text contributed by User:Barracudamag. I'm not finding anything beyond passing mention in a Mercury News article on Paget Brewster. Fails WP:NMEDIA and WP:NWEB. AllyD (talk) 08:39, 29 December 2012 (UTC)

 * Comment: this article was mostly contributed by the same accounts that wrote Jeff Fox which has just been deleted (see Articles for deletion/Jeff Fox (2nd nomination)), namely Special:Contributions/Barracudamag, Special:Contributions/JonKF and Special:Contributions/DeeBozzer. These accounts have made no other contributions. – Fayenatic  L ondon 15:21, 5 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete - It would qualify for A7 if it were just the website but since it was a print magazine before it doesn't. The only third-party "source" I could find was someone who was selling a pile of old issues. James086 Talk  14:57, 12 January 2013 (UTC)
