Talk:List of LGBT periodicals

message: Do people think we should list gay newspapers here too if they aren't dailies?  According to Pink Triangle Press, Xtra! (and its sister publications) are newspapers, but according to magazine, a magazine is a "periodical publication containing a variety of articles on various subjects. Magazines are typically published weekly, twice-monthly or monthly, and often have some colour-printed content and coated paper. "Journal" is sometimes used in reference to a magazine."  All the Xtra! publications are biweekly, though in newspaper format.  I don't know about the Sydney Star Observer but it sounds like a newspaper too.  Exploding Boy 12:17, Feb 16, 2004 (UTC)
::Actually, I'm thinking that since there is not, to the best of my knowledge, a daily "gay" newspaper anywhere in the world perhaps gay papers are best put here... Exploding Boy
: The Sydney Star Observer is a weekly. It's in newspaper format, but nearly all the queer mags in Australia are (if not all). That's probably due to financial issues - the market here is obviously much smaller than in the states. Additionally, they were nearly all bought out by the one company than went broke, so I don't know what is and isn't still alive anymore (for instance, BrotherSister, which I listed, is gone I believe).

message: I sent email to the publisher of the following journal almost 2 months ago, asking for a valid ISSN. Having not yet heard back, I am going to remove the ISSN since I have not been able to locate it anywhere. Kind Regards, Keesiewonder talk 01:04, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Similar magazine found: ; this may not be the same thing but suspiciously similar ISSN. Now added to list.—Teahot (talk) 12:20, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Problematic ISSN

message: The previous question brings up a good point. Do we want to separate newspapers from magazines in this list? It would make for sense to me.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tdempsey (talk • contribs) 00:00, 15 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Probably not. There can be a pretty fine line in reality between publications that call themselves magazines versus newspapers. If a periodical is weekly rather than monthly, this can be added to the listing. For example, Boyz magazine is a free weekly with TV listings and a horoscope, a few years ago it was even printed in broadsheet format but still called itself a magazine.—Teahot (talk) 06:40, 13 May 2009 (UTC)

message: Checking the UK section I noted that http://www.queeruk.net/ had been included. This is a forum site rather than a publication, as a rule should any site that has no regular printed publication associated with it be removed?—Teahot (talk) 06:56, 7 May 2009 (UTC)

message: has been created to provide an easy citation template using the same format as  but without having to setup all the parameter names. The format is: .
Unwanted terms can be dropped off right to left, so for example  would be the simplest usage and  for a title with just the OCLC number. Using this is helpful rather than mandatory as it forces a style in standard use across Wikipedia.—Teahot (talk) 07:34, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
