A fact from Die Freundin appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 26 February 2012 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
Did you know... that Die Freundin, a German lesbian magazine published from 1924 to 1933, was temporarily shut down by the Weimar government?
This subtitle, if correct, does not seem to have been permanent, and I think more needs to be added. Die Freundin may have appeared weekly at some point, but the cover illustrated, which dates from the year before the Great Depression, has the subtitle "Das ideale Freundschaftsblatt" (Journal of ideal friendship) and "Halbmonatsschrift für Aufklärung über ideale Frauenfreundschaft" (twice monthy paper for the elucidation of the ideal friendship of women). In one corner "Erscheint 14tägig Montags" means "appears fortnightly on Mondays". Moonraker (talk) 00:31, 24 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
The English name is given variously by different sources. This source, for example, calls it Die Freundin: Weekly Journal for Ideal Friendship between Women. On the other hand, this source simply calls it The Girlfriend. You are right. The paper was not published in weekly interval throughout its existence. I'm removing the "weekly" from its title. --SupernovaExplosionTalk01:26, 24 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
