• Comment I found the magazine's homepage. They have published two issues so far. Google records 118 other sites that link to maayan, and approximately 12,000 mentions of it (probably a lot of false positive) on the web. This all brings up an interesting question - what are the criteria for periodicals being mentioned in wikipedia? --Bachrach44 15:18, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
• Keep as it may grow into something, it's basically a stub. IZAK 15:27, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete as non-notable publication. --Ezeu 02:13, 13 December 2005 (UTC) Keep. My vote was hasty. A publication notable in Israel, and devoted to poetry – small country, small topic – a typical circumstance for systemic bias.--Ezeu 13:37, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
• Keep this is one of the the most popular poetry magazine in Israel. 4000 copies for 4,000,000 Hebrew speakers 80.230.146.219 11:44, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
