The Valley Voice
A non-notable periodical with a short history (fewer than 10 issues) and limited distribution (fewer than a dozen outlets) in local market (Albany, New York). I edited the article for NPOV a couple of weeks ago with request for someone to make a case for notability. No one did. Numerous other alternative newsweeklies have lasted longer and reached further in this market than Valley Voice has to date. Nothing yet sets it apart as the one newcomer that merits inclusion in Wikipedia. Recommend Delete. Gnhn 14:15, 2 April 2006 (UTC)
 * After I nominated this article for deletion, a new user has added this quote to the article: "It has been reported that the Valley Voice will be avaliable in New York, NY, Boston, MA, and Philadelphia, PA in May 2006." I don't know where this has been reported, not whether it is verifiable. Given that fact, it doesn't change my opinion on the lack of notability of this page. --Gnhn 02:42, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

 * Keep. Good nomination, but I don't see any reason to jettison a nice article on this new publication. Would like to see articles this well done on all our weekly newspapers.-- JJay 00:06, 4 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, no evidence of wide circulation, notability, or readership. Could be a zine that everyone ignores for all the information given here.--Isotope23 16:52, 4 April 2006 (UTC)
