Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Siren (magazine)
I'd note that this article was created (by me, full disclosure) in 2005, when Wikipedia's notability and sourcing rules were much more "make it up as we go along" than they are now; the magazine itself had only just recently ceased publication and was still a relatively fresh and current topic. It's true that there aren't exactly a ton of strong sources that can be added today, but for what it's worth, that's because our notability rules have tightened up over time and ''not'' because the magazine was ''never'' notable enough to meet the inclusion standards as they stood at the time. Arxiloxos' referencing improvements do demonstrate that the magazine did have some relevance in its prime; whether they attest to ''enough'' notability to make the article keepable under ''current'' notability standards, however, is for other people to decide. I will note that the magazine is also archived by the Canadian Lesbian and Gay Archives, which may or may not also be a sufficient criterion to confer notability under 's criteria #2 and #5 for newspapers, magazines and journals — but that said, if I were doing this now, five years further removed from when the magazine was active, I'd admittedly be much more likely to give it a brief subsection it in an omnibus article on Toronto's historical gay media than to give it its own article.
