According to CRiis, the publication is registered under the name Weave Magazine. http://www.criis.com/webtemp/98.234.237.126/fbn_detail.html MiltonRoad (talk) 07:44, 8 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • However... The magazine cover says "Weave" and the journal website talks about "Weave is"" and "Weave aims", etc... The company may be called "Weave Magazine"n but to me it looks like "Magazine" is not a part of the name of the publication itself. That is also the way that WorldCat lists it. --Randykitty (talk) 10:22, 8 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • That kind of name reference to a literary publication is quite common, much akin to a first and last name. Even more widely-distributed magazines have this terminology, though maybe you are right. Maybe the word "Magazine" commonly is dropped (see People and Time)? Though looking at covers of People shows they don't include "Magazine" on the cover, so it's inconsistent. Obviously I'm new at this. The publication is listed on Duotrope [1] and Poets & Writers [2] as Weave Magazine, not Weave. So does the Rejection Wiki. [3] Is there any way to ask one person a question? One of my personal goals this year is to make sure the literary world is well-documented on Wikipedia. There are so many poets and publications that aren't here, but should be. Thanks for help!MiltonRoad (talk) 20:08, 8 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Well, from the links you give, two cannot be used (Rejectionwiki and Duotrope), as they are user-contributed and therefore not ((WP:RS|reliable sources]]. And the third one uses "Weave Magazine" in the header, but then in the text talks systematically only about "Weave". So I think we should move back to "Weave (magazine)"... --Randykitty (talk) 21:30, 8 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
