Whitehot (magazine)

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

This article on an art magazine does not meet WP:GNG nor WP:NCORP for notability. The sourcing in the article consists of one primary source to the magazine itself, and three sources that do not mention the WhiteHot magazine at all (it does mention a gallery with a similar name, White Box, so not sure why that is.) A WP:BEFORE search brings up hits for social media, primary sourcing to the magazine or its founder, but no verifiable in-depth significant coverage on the magazine itself can be found. Bringing it here to seek feedback from the community. Netherzone (talk) 23:37, 31 January 2022 (UTC)

 * Redirect to Noah Becker until we find better sources. I see at least 38 articles where the magazine is cited, so not having anything at all would be a loss. Vexations (talk) 15:39, 1 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Comment - Hello, Redirecting to Noah Becker is a good suggestion, and I agree it is an alternative to deletion. For some reason, I don't find the same information in my searches, only social media-type postings (maybe a geographic google glitch?) The article has one citation to itself, and three NYT articles that don't mention Whitehot at all - they mention WhiteBox (a really great alternative space in NYC, but a separate entity). Whitehot has reviewed some shows at WhiteBox, but notability is not inherited. If two or three good sources about Whitehot magazine can be found, I will withdraw the nom, if not redirecting is fine with me. Netherzone (talk) 14:50, 2 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I should have expressed myself better: I meant that I can find 38 Wikipedia articles that cite Whitehot Magazine. There are likely a few more. I think it is generally considered a good practice to link the name of a magazine in a source to the article about the magazine, so it would be a good thing to have something we can link to.

 * Redirect to Noah Becker as an ATD. Can't find enough in-depth coverage to show that it passes WP:GNG.  Onel 5969  TT me 21:29, 2 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Noah Becker. Clearly doesn't pass WP:GNG for the purposes of earning its own standalone article, but it's clearly semi-notable enough to at least warrant a redirect to the notable artist who launched it so that a person who looks for it will land on something useful.
