[edit] NoMaSoNHa

This is promotion/advertising for minor locally distributed zine, for which I found only 130 Google hits. Additionally, a large part of the article covers guidelines for writing articles for the zine and how to buy advertisements in the zine. This not encyclopedic material. •DanMS 02:46, 3 December 2005 (UTC)

• Keep but chop it: Keep this but delete everything except the first paragraph, the bio, and one external link. Everything else is unencyclopediac and subject to change, especially things like advertising rates. Hu 03:21, 3 December 2005 (UTC)

Comment: I've got no idea how notable this zine is, but I agree with Hu, that there's a lot of cutting to do. - Mgm|^(talk) 14:22, 3 December 2005 (UTC)

• Actually, I started out to do exactly what Hu suggests when I first came across this article. But then I wondered if it was worth keeping at all, so I put it up for AFD. I am not opposed to keeping the first paragraph if the community deems it worthwhile. ◎DanMS 20:12, 3 December 2005 (UTC)

• Delete: the magazine is one of hundreds of locals serving the local scene. Life as we know it depends upon the continuance of these zine scenes, but none of them are encyclopedic. In fact, they should be underground works, and both they and we are better off without advertising. Geogre 20:48, 3 December 2005 (UTC)
• Weak keep; I don't mind the various local entertainment magazines being listed here; however, the article should be heavily trimmed down. We don't need ad rates and detailed submission style guidelines. *Dan T.* 06:09, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
