Project details
This WikiProject aims primarily to provide Wikipedia with the following:
- general information about magazines
- information about specific magazine publications
The goals of this project are to identify magazine publications that do not yet have articles in Wikipedia (see WP:MCW/MIS in particular), and to discuss and suggest guidelines for writing magazine related-articles.

Magazines cited by Wikipedia
The project maintains a bot-generated list of magazines cited on Wikipedia using the |magazine=
parameter of {{cite xxx}}
templates. The list is organized both alphabetically and by popularity. Due to a lack of advanced filtering, the lists will include several academic journals, websites, and other things that aren't magazines. See WP:MCW for more details.

Notability
- See also: Wikipedia:Notability (media).
Notability is presumed for magazines that:
- have produced award winning work
- have served some sort of historic purpose or have a significant history
- are considered by reliable sources to be authoritative in their subject area
- are frequently cited by other reliable sources
- are significant publications in ethnic and other non-trivial niche markets
Publications that primarily carry advertising, and only have trivial content, may have relevant details merged to an article on their publisher (if notable).
For tips on writing a good article on a magazine, see our writing guide.
