Please comment. I just listed this article on the Cleanup page. I'll be happy to clean up this page, and to poke around cleaning up pages like this, but for a newbie (me), this article is a good example of "What do I do now?" A dicdef followed by an unrelated article is an obvious candidate for cleanup, but what's the best approach? Omit the dicdef altogether? Make a stub from it and hope somebody expands it into a real article? Split the two and create a disambiguation page, and let somebody else decide what to do with the dicdef? Any opinions? A. J. A.

The last sentence (about magazine closures) is terribly misleading. In fact, going to the source, more than 2.5 times as many magazines were launched in 2012 as ceased publication, where it was only 1.6 times as many new as ceased in 2011. (Also, those figures are for the U.S. and Canada, not for the world.). [1] — Preceding unsigned comment added by 162.224.185.229 ( talk) 00:20, 27 December 2013 (UTC)
References
I suspect the paper magazine to be the most prominent search. So I'd suggest to start the page of with something like: This page is about ... if you're looking for an article regarding firearms please go here. If you're looking for the band go here (put in links) Otherwise keep the content and expand on magazines and their editorial process perhaps, include e-zines? -- MGM 22:01, Apr 24, 2004 (UTC)
This article does not belong in the category 'Magazine publishers', because it is not an article about magazine publishers. I think that's all that needs to be said. That is the convention on how categories are used in Wikipedia. If you want to add this category back, please discuss it here first. ike9898 23:00, Feb 11, 2005 (UTC)
It would be great if someone knowledgeable on the subject could add a little tidbit as to why monthly magazines are printed one month in advance. Thanks for your consideration. -- Cioxx 13:14, 22 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Magazine used to mean store house. Somewhere along the line it became used for periodical booklet. Does anyone know how this happened? -- njh 18:57, 12 March 2006 (UTC)
An article on 'magazine' in the arsenal rather than publishing context would be useful. If anyone has the requisite knowledge please add it. 84.69.120.56 11:13, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
This belongs in an article on anti-consumerism or anti-commercialism, but doesn't add to understanding of magazines. Barnabypage 12:56, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
Please comment at Talk:Contact magazine. Lillies (who has only made 2 edits to wikipedia) edited Contact magazine and I think Lillies' main change is dubious. -- EarthFurst 00:37, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
The word "periodical" in the first sentence links back to this page and doesn't provide any further information. For now, the hyperlink should be removed. Unfortunately, I dodn't see an edit tab for the top of the article and I'm not sure how it should be done. -- Absolute Zerr 3:30 EST, 31 December 2006
Wow, this article needs a lot of work...anyone with some knowledge in this subject?
Also, what about the decline of magazines? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.29.83.65 ( talk) 17:44, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
Why is there a lengthy plug for FAIR in this article? Should it not be removed? What has it to do with the subject of the article? Godingo 18:54, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
I heard that the word has its roots in Arabic. Is it so? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.102.98.98 ( talk) 19:17, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
What's the name of the box (or full page) containing the publication's information such as the address, the name of the chief editor, the web URL if any, etc.? Usually located at the beginning near the
table of contents.

Hi all: I came to this page looking for a list of Motorsports Magazines (Motorcycles, ATVs, Personal Watercraft, etc.) but there does not seem to be a category that is appropriate. I would be willing to start collecting information about Motorsports Magazines and filling out such a page if enough of you agree that it is appropriate (but I sure as heck don't want to go to all the effort and have it reverted!) That said, I rarely check Wikipedia for updates (vs. actually use Wikipedia for reference, which I do almost daily) so if someone would like to see me do add this please email me at my name (with no space) at gmail dot com. Thanks in advance. MikeSchinkel ( talk) 18:55, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
The result of the proposal was no consensus for move. I'd add regarding the analysis in the duscussion section that nothing in WP:PRIMARYTOPIC supports the notion that finding every possible dab for a page and adding them to compare to the use of the primary is a good gauge (and here adding them all up still results in a significant disparity). Rather we are to look at whether the primary is "much more used than any other topic" (singular), which is the case here.-- Fuhghettaboutit ( talk) 04:21, 5 February 2009 (UTC)
Magazine → Magazine (publication), to make way for a disambiguation page at Magazine. The discussion started at Talk:Magazine (disambiguation). Clarityfiend ( talk) 23:24, 31 January 2009 (UTC)
Per Wikipedia article traffic statistics:
So Magazine has less than 3x as many hits as the other topics combined. And many of the Magazine hits are due to over-linking, such as this example from Apple Inc.: The magazine MacAddict named the period between 1989 and 1991 as the "first golden age" of the Macintosh. -- Una Smith ( talk) 07:02, 1 February 2009 (UTC) One important benefit of putting a disambiguation page at an ambiguous base name is to facilitate disambiguating incoming links from mainspace. Magazine has thousands of these links. Looking at the first 15, I count 8 that refer to the format (ie, the article now at Magazine), 4 overlinks, 1 use of Template:Magazine, one mystery link, and one wrong link. -- Una Smith ( talk) 16:09, 1 February 2009 (UTC)
The Types of magazines subsection found at the bottom of this page needs to be methodically expanded to include all major categories that currently exist. One that comes to mind right away is “Children's magazines”. Cajd ( talk) 20:53, 14 April 2010 (UTC)
Should there be a section titled Types, outlining the several categories of magazines? Or should that be its own thing? I'm new to editing on Wikipedia so I'm not sure of the M.O. Simon Placr ( talk) 18:21, 2 October 2019 (UTC)
I've noticed that under the link for "History of Newspapers and Magazines", the page has only a tiny paragraph about magazines, the rest is all newspapers. I've already proposed on said page that that be separated, so I think that the paragraph from there should be added to this page, and the link should be taken off. Allyalleycats ( talk) 04:15, 14 November 2015 (UTC)Allyalleycats
There is a non-sequitur sentence in this paragraph: "Despite being among the first mass media outlets to venture from the bible, periodicals still remained rooted in the naturalized class and gender system held by European and American society.[7]"
Despite having a citation, the sentence a) does not make sense in itself and b) has no connection to the rest of the paragraph.
What is meant by the line "the first mass media outlets to venture from the bible"?

Poetry Name : कलयुग की गाथा Written By : Anuj Sharma Aligarh (Writer & Poet) ये कहाँ आ गए हम ये कौनसी दुनिया है ये क्या सोच के आए थे हम ये क्या हो गया
ज़माने भर में मुझे अपना अपना कहने वाले कहाँ हैं चले गए अब जब सब कुछ तवाह हो गया
ये कहाँ आ गए हम ये कौनसी दुनिया है ये क्या सोच के आए थे हम ये क्या हो गया
क्या काम देकर भेजा ईश्वर ने यहाँ क्या करवाया जा रहा है यहाँ बेटी सुरक्षित भी नहीं उनको भी मरवाया जा रहा है
अब बचा ही क्या है देखने को सब कुछ निकलता जा रहा है जीवन रूपी रेत हाथ से यूँ ही फिसलता जा रहा है
इंसान इंसान को मार रहा है मानव राक्षस हो रहा है ये कैसी दुनिया है यहाँ क्या हो रहा है
ये कहाँ आ गए हम ये कौनसी दुनियां है ये क्या सोच के आए थे हम ये क्या हो गया
यहाँ जाति का खेल है यहाँ धर्म का खेल है यहाँ भाइयों से ज़्यादा पड़ोसी से मेल है
कौन किस की परवाह करता है यहाँ सभी रंग दिखाते हैं मौत सामने हो फिर भी लोग लूट ले जाते हैं
हर तरफ कोई न कोई गलत आपके बारे में भोंकता हैं इंसान हो या जानवर पीठ पीछे ही छुरा घोंपता है
ये कहाँ आ गए हम ये कौनसी दुनियां है ये क्या सोच के आए थे हम ये क्या हो गया
कोरोना के डर ने ऐसी दुनिया बना दी सबने रामायण देखी और हमें भी हनुमान चालीसा थमा दी
पुलिस घूस खाती है सारा ज़माना झूठ बोल रहा है यहाँ भगवान को ही नहीं बक्शा जा रहा मेरे दोस्त, तू साधुओं की बोल रहा है
अपना अपना कहकर लोग क्या क्या करवा देते हैं आप उनपे भरोसा करो वो आपको मरवा देते हैं
कृष्ण सुदामा पढ़ाकर भेजा गया हमें यहाँ क्या क्या करवाया जा रहा है हमारे दोस्त से ही हमें, मरवाया जा रहा है
ये कहाँ आ गए हम ये कौनसी दुनियां है ये क्या सोच के आए थे हम ये क्या हो गया
कृष्ण बनो या राम बनो या बनो कल्कि मेरे नाथ अब तुमको यहाँ आना होगा यहाँ बहुत हो चुके पाप

there are way too many photographs in this article. for another call about magazines, I would expect a lot less imagery included in this article. so, please change it. 2600:1702:2130:6160:BF4E:6377:DB06:537A ( talk) 03:02, 30 January 2024 (UTC)
Each fiscal year American magazines publish their coporate details (this is distinct from the masthead). I don't even know what they're called, but I've always presumed that they're required. Is it a business license thing? kencf0618 ( talk) 16:26, 3 February 2024 (UTC)
I thought I'd mention here that in the introduction of Frank Mott's A History of American Magazines, he lays out definitions for magazines, periodicals, newspapers, etc. In case anyone would like to follow up. when cleaning up this article. His definitions are clear and also include references to other works. Auldhouse ( talk) 18:15, 19 February 2024 (UTC)
