BLP on Non-notable person, who's claim to fame appears to be a magazine kickstarter. Sources do little to establish notability and a web search yields nothing significant. Polyamorph (talk) 20:32, 11 April 2018 (UTC)

 * Comment I think it would make sense to rename the article to MOLD (magazine) because it is primarily about the magazine, not its editor. Vexations (talk) 11:28, 12 April 2018 (UTC)
 * I would agree except I can't find significant coverage to satisfy notability for this magazine kickstarter either.Polyamorph (talk) 11:32, 12 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Why not Designo, Metropolis and Saveur? Vexations (talk) 12:05, 12 April 2018 (UTC)
 * They give the magazine some coverage yes, but is it non trivial significant coverage to satisfy WP:NPOV? I would say no. Polyamorph (talk) 12:41, 12 April 2018 (UTC)

 * Agreed. Change the article to be about MOLD magazine (which all the references are discussing) and include Yuan in that article. Ross-c (talk) 08:53, 27 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment. The article is about the person. Not the magazine. The sources might be about the magazine but moving to MOLD (magazine), a page that does not exist, will require a complete rewrite. Who is going to do this? Besides, what in your opinion makes the magazine notable? Polyamorph (talk) 09:52, 27 April 2018 (UTC)


 * Merge and redirect to Mold (magazine) which is the main subject of the significant coverage (what there is) from the RS available. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 18:48, 4 May 2018 (UTC)
