Wikipedia:WikiProject Magazines

Project details
This WikiProject aims primarily to provide Wikipedia with the following:
 * general information about magazines
 * information about specific magazine publications

The goals of this project are to identify magazine publications that do not yet have articles in Wikipedia (see WP:MCW/MIS in particular), and to discuss and suggest guidelines for writing magazine related-articles.

Magazines cited by Wikipedia
The project maintains a bot-generated list of magazines cited on Wikipedia using the magazine parameter of templates. The list is organized both alphabetically and by popularity. Due to a lack of advanced filtering, the lists will include several academic journals, websites, and other things that aren't magazines. See WP:MCW for more details.

Notability

 * See also: Wikipedia:Notability (media).

Notability is presumed for magazines that:
 * 1) have produced award winning work
 * 2) have served some sort of historic purpose or have a significant history
 * 3) are considered by reliable sources to be authoritative in their subject area
 * 4) are frequently cited by other reliable sources
 * 5) are significant publications in ethnic and other non-trivial niche markets

Publications that primarily carry advertising, and only have trivial content, may have relevant details merged to an article on their publisher (if notable).

For tips on writing a good article on a magazine, see our writing guide.
