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.

Suggestion
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 page needs to be made into a disambiguation page if content is to grow. How about splitting the content between Magazine (medium), Magazine (band) (already exists) and Magazine (firearms). I'm not sure about the last one. Any suggestions?--[[User:HamYoyo|HamYoyo|TALK]] 18:57, Jun 29, 2004 (UTC)
- Seems this has been taken care of. ike9898 23:00, Feb 11, 2005 (UTC)
Category
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)
Background information
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)
