Amsterdam Magazine

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Article describes a short-lived magazine and its even shorter-lived offshoot. During their brief existence, the only attention received from independent sources (of doubtful reliability - some read like press releases) consists of brief mentions in a marketing magazine and on two local radio/TV stations. Does not meet WP:NMEDIA or WP:GNG. Guillaume2303 (talk) 14:12, 12 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

While short-lived, these magazines are relevant because they were one of the few English language publications in the Amsterdam area. Furthermore, this entry can/should serve as a cautionary tale from what is an incredibly tough publishing market. Coverage from local radio/TV stations does meet Wikipedia's policies concerning reputability. Like many articles on this site, the subject matter isn't significant enough to warrant coverage from the New York Times but it is highly relevant/important to its niche.
