Deletion Nomination
[edit]This article is in progress. It refers to a new literary magazine which deserves a Wikipedia entry to enable it to develop. It is a student publication which follows in the vein of Bruce Andrews' 'L=A=N=G=U=A=G-E Magazine', 'This' and 'Roof', and is the next/newest stage in emergent linguistic and artistic experimentation. To dismiss this page, and stunt the magazine's growth, would be to reject the liberalism of youth/student/experimental art and prevent an important movement from having a chance to grow.

it's not notable. Check out Wikipedia's notability requirements. It needs independent coverage and recognition. The fact that deleting the article would 'stunt the magazine's growth' is not relevant. 86.2.118.52 (talk) 14:53, 25 February 2010 (UTC)
It isn't notable yet. I imagine people opposed Twitter having an entry when it was in its conception stages (there are plenty more examples, that was a throw-away one). I have never met nor do I know the creators, for future debate reference. This article merely pre-empts its recognition, and will be of use for those who seek more information on the project. You look to Wikipedia for this new information, and not for that which you have already noted. Also, please ensure correct spelling in further debate to avoid confusion.

- Please have a look at the notability and verifiability requirements for entries. You can make your case against deletion on the AFD page, rather than removing the tag from the entry over and over. Thanks. Hairhorn (talk) 17:25, 25 February 2010 (UTC)
It wouldn't have to be removed again and again if it wasn't put up again and again. Camuscando (talk) 17:31, 25 February 2010 (UTC)
- Ummm.. you might want to look at the AFD policy as well. AFD is a means for generating consensus about an entry, which can hardly happen if the tag keeps being removed. Removing AFD tags is normally considered vandalism, and certainly won't help your case any. Hairhorn (talk) 17:35, 25 February 2010 (UTC)
It isn't my case, it's the students' case. It was a show of support before they were dismissed in a couple of clicks and coded responses.Camuscando (talk) 17:40, 25 February 2010 (UTC)
