Does not meet general notability guidelines. Article only references catalogs and non-secondary sources. Regards, Jeromi Mikhael (marhata) 09:33, 23 October 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete: Non-notable magazine. Found no sources for notability in my search.  Java Hurricane  09:56, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
 * hi. just got an email that this page i created is set to be deleted. Not sure why its stated as 'non notable'. World Travel Magazine is a print based travel magazine in Singapore, operating since 2009. Our journalists cover global destinations, as evident on website. If this entry is to be erased, then a whole host of wiki pages that have names and points of interest of travel magazines would need to be erased.
 * Notability
 * To ensure that page is not muddled with a whole list of references, I have added just 4. Adding a list of citations will make the page look imbalanced. Someone in list mentioned that its not 'notable'. Well our 22 journalist staff, >30k readers a month, >300k facebook followers are notable.

 * ''someone mentioned - only references catalogs"
 * So as to confirm year of operations.
 * The National Library Board (Singapore) with the relevant entry has been added as reference simply :to reflect that its a genuine entry.
 * The world catalogue reference has been added as reference to confirm year of publication.

 * Delete. Nobody is disputing that the magazine exists. The websites cited in the article and above cannot be described as reliable sources which are independent of the article, as required by the guidelines at WP:RS: they appear to be press releases or appreciative comments from commercial organisations which have been featured in the magazine. The assertion by VishalJain that If this entry is to be erased, then a whole host of wiki pages that have names and points of interest of travel magazines would need to be erased is addressed at WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. This magazine simply doesn't have the level of notability set out at WP:CORPDEPTH. ~dom Kaos~ (talk) 11:29, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete WP:NCORP not met. Also the article creator has a very obvious conflict of interest. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 15:08, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete - all WP:COI issues aside, this fails WP:NCORP and any other relevant notability criteria; I'm not convinced by any of the sources provided above Spiderone  20:49, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
