Second reference

[edit]

The magazine's website refers to itself on second reference as GL&R. Although this seems backward, do we want to use this to standardize for all mentions of the magazine after the intro (save the rename in the History section)? —C.Fred (talk) 02:39, 14 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

In general, references should be to third-party sources - see WP:PSTS. -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 16:35, 7 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Can you survey them and see how they handle second referencing? That's a lot of reference to hit to just figure out a short form. IMHO, this is one of the few times where a primary source is better: it establishes how they want themselves referred to. —C.Fred (talk) 16:48, 12 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Notability

[edit]

Can we put something forth to establish this page's notability? Its place within the news, academia, etc. Anything. Ottava Rima (talk) 15:52, 12 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

plan to update circulation numbers

[edit]

Article currently says "Currently, The G&LR has a circulation of 11,000", but the reference used (2018 July) is says "readers, has since grown to well over 10,000 nationwide and worldwide." (so 10k instead of 11k), and that webpage said the same thing in 2017 May (and now in 2019 January). That harvard.edu page probably got the 10k amount from glreview.org:80/about/ which said "The G&LR has a print run of 10,000 copies, of which about two-thirds are sent to individual subscribers" from around 2016 October to around 2017 September, but that 10k figure is probably out of date as glreview.org:80/about/ now says "has a circulation of about 9,000 regular subscribers", wording it switched to around 2017 December. Not sure if that harvard.edu webpage is the best reference (in terms of being up to date) as it says the magazine's website is glreview.com, but that domain has been parked (possibly cybersquatted) since around 2017 September and is definitely cybersquatted since around 2018 January (see archive.org Wayback Machine). --EarthFurst (talk) 09:31, 26 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
