Ephemeral magazine, no in-depth independent reliable sources. Does not meet WP:GNG. Randykitty (talk) 21:35, 17 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately delete as it was short-lived and localized so that affects the chances of sources especially good ones and I found nothing particularly good with this being the best. SwisterTwister talk 06:12, 20 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete not enough independent coverage to be called significant. Articles like the cited "Lit Mag Spotlight: Moonshot Magazine" were clearly written by Moonshot staff (use of "we"). The uncited "No Sleep 'Til Brooklyn!...Lit Mags From the Hood"] just reproduced Moonshot's submissions policy. "IT’S ALIIIIVE!: A Night With Brooklyn Indie Lit Mags at powerHouse Arena" had nothing about the magazine, except the participation by its editor in the discussion. Fails WP:GNG. --Bejnar (talk) 20:49, 25 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete a look at the article, a quick search, and, especially, a look at the discussions accessed via the redlinks on the Literary magazine page absolutely persuaded me. However, I could imagine that an article, or list, of short-lived literary magazines might be useful and source-able.E.M.Gregory (talk) 12:30, 1 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
