Seems the strong United States bias of wikipedia rampant again. I am currently living in Madrid, and a publication of this kind has historical importance in European student politics. The magazine has already attracted significant interest, tabloid fodder Peaches Geldof is headlining thier DJ line up for the launch party. Very disappointing if you delete the entry. |

Seems the strong United States bias of wikipedia rampant again. I am currently living in Madrid, and a publication of this kind has historical importance in European student politics. The magazine has already attracted significant interest, tabloid fodder Peaches Geldof is headlining thier DJ line up for the launch party. Very disappointing if you delete the entry.
Non-notable UK student magazine. It's distributed at three top schools, but that in itself doesn't confer notability. Awyong Jeffrey Mordecai Salleh 02:26, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
- Delete, non-notable magazine distributed in only three schools. Has tried to distribute elsewhere, though the article even admits that the "project may indeed fail".--TBCTaLk?!? 02:43, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
- Delete. Non-notable at this time. -- cmhTC 02:53, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
- Delete Vanity page for writers of NN student magazine. "The entire contents of the first issue are known to probably as few as five people. Unconfirmed rumours suggest that editors will reveal the contents several days before the magazine officially launches." - so it's crystal balling too. --IslaySolomon 03:46, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
- Delete - non-notable. Indeed, it's unclear to me whether this publication exists at all. Its website is noticeably empty. Maybe a hoax? BTLizard 11:00, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
- Delete or possibly just "scrap"! Nigel (Talk) 12:45, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
- Delete per nom.UberCryxic 17:13, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
- Strong Delete - violates WP:VAIN --Ineffable3000 22:58, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
- Scrap. Doesn't appear to have released a single issue yet. Zetawoof(ζ) 23:25, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
- Delete I wish the project luck, but this article is marketing abuse of Wikipedia Bwithh 23:37, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
- Give them a chance I am Adam's tutor at Cambridge and I think you should the guys a chance. They are doing a good job and people are becoming attracted to the publication. It's got a huge print run for student publication and will impact student media. Even us academics are interested. There is a very self-indulgent article on Varsity, for example. It's the way students are. Please don't delete. Thank you 86.134.87.178 22:30, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
- "Varsity" is a generic term, and most of the articles linked from that page (it's a disambiguation) have to do with generic usages of the term (varsity sports, etc). Scrap. isn't a generic usage of the word - the only reason it's not on a disambiguated name like Scrap. (magazine) is because it's got a weird period at the end of it. In any case, the real criterion for inclusion in Wikipedia is widespread recognition. "Scrap." doesn't have that yet. Perhaps it will, but until it does the article doesn't belong here.
