I cannot see any basis on which he passes .   ''Rue Morgue'' is a niche publication, but the "keep" arguments seem to be based on the assertion that a "prolific writer" for a magazine, any magazine, is necessarily notable.  This is NOT THE CASE.  We do not have articles for every "prolific writer" working even for major publications like The Guardian or Sports Illustrated.  Articles on journalists need to establish notability , which is usually done by showing that  secondary source publications have published assessments of their work, and articles about stuff like where their first job was, and when they were hired by Fangoria or Rue Morgue.  There is no use repeating that Rue Morgue is well-known.  What we need to see in order to establish notability is that his articles are republished in books like ''Best Magazine ARticles, 2016,'' discussed in scholarly journal article or books about horror fiction, and taht there are articles in  publications that offer substantive discussion of him and/or his work
