GOOD Magazine
The issue at hand is whether or not a magazine that has published exactly one issue meets notability standards. It's a nice-looking publication, definitely not a scrubby little zine, but is that sufficient? I'm undecided myself, but I'm putting this here to see what the consensus is. --Pagana 16:47, 8 September 2006 (UTC) Pagana 16:47, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. If it was only launched this month, then it probably isn't notable yet.  Few magazines publications are capable of being notable before publishing a dozen issues.  zephyr2k  17:25, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. If the publication has wide enough distribution, the is going to be a demand for encyclopedic information about the publication. (Disclosure: I wrote the article.) --Ldrhcp 17:49, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Newer magazine doesn't belong here. It's not hard to wait until it's been out for a while longer (to see if it lasts for one thing, and for another...to see if it's even worth being here). RobJ1981 17:54, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Until the publication has a track record to determine distribution and notability. Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. -- Fan-1967 19:54, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as nn, until such time as it becomes n, if ever. --Aaron 20:26, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
