 * Delete. Sounds promotional, and very short on notability assertion. --  Blanchardb - Me•MyEars•MyMouth - timed 03:04, 12 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete as advertising. No third-party mentions. No ghits, news hits, or anything that might indicate notability.  Graymornings (talk) 03:13, 12 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Do not delete. Hope it is ok now. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.133.8.114 (talk) 14:28, 12 February 2009 (UTC)
 * The magazine seems to have had significant media echo in the German magazine 'Focus Campus' and German national radio 'Deutschlandradio Kultur': http://www.dradio.de/dkultur/vorschau/20080701/. Was promotional initially, as material was copied from the website, but indeed better now. Let's keep it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 163.1.237.143 (talk) 15:25, 12 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Can you tell us how that reference is even remotely related to the magazine Europe &amp; Me? --  Blanchardb - Me•MyEars•MyMouth - timed 12:03, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Blanchardb, this was just to point out that the magazine is notable no-nonsense. If you scroll down, there is a 13 minute interview with one of the editors. If you google the radio station, you'll see it has regular 13 million listeners. More generally, I don't see why a political magazine with several ten thousand readers should not have a tiny article here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mr fabs (talk • contribs) 15:57, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Basically, you are asking us to find a needle in a haystack. A 13-minute interview is not much, regardless of how many listeners the radio station has, if that's all there is. --  Blanchardb - Me•MyEars•MyMouth - timed 00:51, 14 February 2009 (UTC)
 * There are more sources (complementing those mentioned in "Refrences"): http://www.paediatrie-links.de/krippenbetreuung_FAZ2008.pdf This is a scan of an article in German newspaper Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung and http://209.85.129.132/search?q=cache:SIlPzAjh7VIJ:www.euroclio.eu/joomla/index.php/NGO-s/EUStory/+%22Europe+%26+Me%22&hl=de&ct=clnk&cd=68&client=safari This demonstrates the connection with EUSTORY (see article about Athisaari's Noble Prize) and EUSTORY, of course, has its place on Wikipedia. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cwratil (talk • contribs) 13:04, 14 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment. This article asks us to believe that there was no European lifestyle magazine on the Internet before July 2008. That's an extraordinary claim that needs extraordinarily strong sources if we are to believe it. Phil Bridger (talk) 23:11, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
