update about acquisition of Cafe Studios[edit]

Hi IceWelder, I have a small edit request to keep the page up to date

  • Please add the following sentence to the end of the History section: In April 2021 Vox Media purchased Cafe Studios, the publisher of the former US Attorney for the Southern District of New York Preet Bharara's podcast Stay Tuned with Preet. Cafe Studios operates as a division of the Vox Media Podcast Network.[1]
  • In addition, please add "Stay Tuned with Preet" to the list of Vox Media Podcast Network's podcasts in the section near the bottom of the article called "Vox Media Podcast Network."

Edit requests to the New York Magazine section[edit]

Hi IceWelder. I hope you will be able to continue helping out with edits on this page. I am requesting a major improvement to the New York magazine section, which is a sub-section of the Properties section. My request is to substitute the bullet points for a more fleshed-out description of each of New York magazine's branded sites. The easiest way to present this is to provide the content with sources below, with only minor changes to the content that is already found in that section. Please replace all the content found directly underneath

Main article: New York (magazine)

New York is an American biweekly magazine concerned with life, culture, politics, and style generally, and with a particular emphasis on New York City. In 2018 the magazine won its first Pulitzer Prize, for Jerry Saltz's art criticism,[1] and in 2019 it was named Adweek's Hottest Magazine of the Year.[2] On September 24, 2019, it was announced that the magazine's parent company, New York Media, merged with Vox Media.[3] The magazine's website, NYMag.com, was a companion to the magazine until it was relaunched as a news site in 2006. It further includes several branded sites:

Intelligencer[edit]

In 2018 New York magazine launched Intelligencer as an expanded version of Daily Intelligencer, covering politics and business news.[4]

The Cut[edit]

Originally New York Magazine’s fashion blog, re-launched in 2012 as a stand-alone website covering women’s issues including style, self, culture and power.[5][6] Among women's media the site is considered serious editorially and, in its scope, with original fashion photography and bold news coverage.[7] In 2021, Lindsay Peoples Wagner was named editor-in-chief of the site.[8]

Grub Street[edit]

The site is the recipient of the James Beard food-site award, covering New York City's restaurant scene.[9] Adam Platt, is among the site's several restaurant critics.[10] Grub Street is credited with introducing the world to the "cronut" In 2014.[11]

The Strategist[edit]

The Strategist is New York Magazine’s internet shopping companion. It was launched as a website in November 2016.[12] It has developed a cult following for its personality-driven recommendations.[13] In 2021, Maxine Builder was named editor.[14] She is a recipient of an ASME Next award, which recognizes talented journalists under age 30.[15]

Vulture[edit]

Vulture was launched in 2007 as New York magazine's site for entertainment and culture news.[16] Staff writers include E. Alex Jung,[17] Angelica Jade Bastién,[18][19] and Rachel Handler.[20] The site sponsors the annual Vulture Festival,[21] and also hosts podcasts, including Good One[22] and Switched on Pop.[23][24]

Curbed[edit]

Main article: Curbed

The brand originated as a real-estate and home website that reached beyond New York City to publish in 32 markets across the U.S. It was founded in 2004 as a side project by Lockhart Steele, managing editor of Gawker Media. Vox Media would later acquire Curbed's parent company, Curbed Network, in November 2013 for $20–30 million in cash and stock, accumulating sister brands Eater and Ranked as well.[25] In May 2020, Vox Media announced it was merging Curbed into New York magazine's website, NYMag.com as a vertical.[26] The site focuses on news and writing about "the politics of the street," real estate listings and design.[27] In November 2020, Sukjong Hong became the site's editor.[28]

Thanks again so much for all your help. Tater graham at VM (talk) 16:54, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: The proposed edits should go into the New York Magazine article. Quetstar (talk) 16:48, 30 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, you are correct, this content belongs on the New York Magazine article, but it ALSO belongs here, on the Vox Media article. The descriptions here on the Vox Media page that I am requesting be added are intentionally short, and just meant to quickly describe each brand. For more in-depth information readers will go to each brand's own article, or to the New York Magazine article. But it is appropriate for there to also be a brief description here. (WP:RELART) Thanks. I am pinging Melmann, who was helpful with the Jim Bankoff article, for a second opinion. Tater graham at VM (talk) 18:20, 20 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I concur with Quetstar. Edits are promotional in tone and could be contested as such even if posted to New York (magazine). Here, they would be inappropriately long, in addition to the promotional tone. Some of your sourcing is industry adjacent, which would make it contestable on those grounds.
