595:. For me, it's the lack of significant coverage in independent, reliable sources. When I searched for your newspaper, I could not find other media discussing it in any detail - there were a couple of passing mentions and the Boston Globe article I have added. So, for instance, the article mentions the paper's role in publicising the university's financial ties to South Africa. If a reference was cited where an independent, published source had described the paper's activism and the effect on the university, that would be coverage which could count towards notability. Does that help? 1052:) brings up some very valuable points. This article has been sufficiently edited to fully comply with all five of the criteria of what makes an article notable if it is a student newspaper, and only one point is necessary. The Justice has a significant history and it appears from the edits that it is perfectly notable for an encyclopedia like Knowledge. Repeating ( 956:-specific content of those sources into prose, then cite the sources as references. It might seem like adding more and more citations would be helpful, but Knowledge editors have seen a lot of people doing this to promote or otherwise overstate the importance of an article subject, so it can come across as promotional rather than encyclopedic. 558: 1019:- The website for Brandeis's official history frequently relies on articles published by the subject dating back to the school's founding, indicating "historic purpose". The subject's "significance" is to the school community through the content it publishes and distributes weekly; this should be sufficient for a campus publication. 319:
I don't know the nom, but I know as a prolific AfC reviewer I've become pretty good at assessing pages. Thanks for the link to arguements to avoid - which apply exactly to the waive of the "not notable" wand without any basis that this nomination is comprised of. The paper itself is a reliable source
840:
If "significant history" was intended to mean "being published for a long time", they could have simply said that, or "long history", or (as I said before) "has been published for x number of years." And clearly, significance of history would be established by coverage of that history in independent

Student media, such as over-the-air college radio stations and student newspapers, are not presumed non-notable just because they primarily serve a university or college student population, but are judged by the same inclusion standards as any other media outlet. A student newspaper or radio station

that this is a student-run newspaper — of which many exist in Massachusetts and around the country — it is not notable. The University sites the newspaper, large media corporations have sited the paper (an example of such has been linked several times), and readership is worldwide. What am I missing

While potentially evidence supporting "frequently cited by other reliable sources", I moved the list to the talk page for reference because it's a completely unsuitable list for an article. It might be possible to incorporate some of it into the article, like the controversy about their coverage of

1) In an AfD discussion you only !vote once, meaning the bolded keep or delete or whatever should only be bolded in one of your comments, to help the closing admin evaluate the discussion. 2) It looks like you're signing your comments with copy/paste or manually, but a much easier and automatic way
825:
That is twisting the simple english meaning. How in the world do you decIde what is Signifocant history vs insignificant history and to whom? I have no relationship to the school amd could care less about it, but the history of my own school is significant to me and those connected to the school.
266:
indeed I reverted your redirect which points at a few words on the university page, which is too long a page to permit any real discussion of an editorially independant publication. No evidence presented here or elsewhere that a student newspaper published since 1949 is not notable. We even have

1031:- The subject has been the student newspaper since 1949, essentially since Brandeis's founding, and its printing and circulation around campus is presumably funded by the school. That seems to demonstrate continued significance to Brandeis University- clearly a "non-trivial niche market." 874:
as the subject has received significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources, some listed in the article, some listed in this discussion, and some available in newspaper archives. I have added a talk page section and article section template to get more attention to the close
1023:- I'm assuming "Subject area" refers here to Brandeis students and the school's administration. Citations on this page indicate that reputable news outlets do treat the subject as an "authoritative" source on news developments regarding Brandeis affairs. 503:
established in 1949, almost 60 years before the Brandeis Hoot. If there are improvements that can be made to the article itself, I would be more than happy to address those. jengeller9, 13:24, 4 November 2018; edited by jengeller9 16:23, 6 November 2018
1027:- "Frequently" is obviously relative, but for the subset of issues about which Brandeis has received attention from reliable media outlets (ie. the retraction of Ayaan Hirsi Ali's honorary degree in 2014), the subject's articles are frequently cited. 365:, which is explicitly in the article. The institution of journalism builds upon itself, and The Justice is a notable part of University culture. Hence, although Brandeis is a small school that is relatively new with a limited history, broadening 639:
Incidental mentions aren't "extensive coverage" and those last two links are definitely incidental mentions, though they might count as being cited by a reliable sources. The first NYT article would seem to count towards extensive coverage.

following the green cited criteria " 2. have served some sort of historic purpose or have a significant history" is met. Paper has been continously published since 1949 right? That seems to be a significant history of almost 70 years.
731:
said based upon their criteria, the Justice is therefore allowed to serve primarily the Brandeis community and still remain notable. However, other notable news sources have referenced The Justice. jengeller9, 19:47, 4 November

Here are three distinct articles the Justice has been mentioned in. Two are by the New York Times and the third is by American Thinker. One New York Times and the American Thinker article are cited in the Knowledge article. 1)

Simply existing for a long period of time does not establish "significant history." It establishes history, not that the history is significant, or the criteria would simply be "has been published for x number of years."

to expand. A limited amount of resources does not make the paper notable. If the NYT did not deem the paper worthy of citation or reliable they never would have sited it. jengeller9, 19:58, 4 November 2018
609:
Many other student papers just in Mass have been found notable. I don't understand the hate against this paper. Most of its existence is preinternet which makes finding sources harder.
203: 826:
Therefore the intent behind "significant" must be a reference to time, or in other words not a blog started last month or a two issue paper that quickly folded and everyone forgot.

is either to the paper itself or to Brandeis publications. That being said, of course student newspapers aren't inherently non notable, but neither are they inherently notable,
636:. These are not Brandeis and cite the Justice in articles about Brandeis. I will insert the last article by the NYT into the Knowledge page. jengeller9, 19:23, 4 November 2018 531:
On that note, why do other student publications have pages and this one cannot? What makes this one less notable than any other student newspapers? jengeller9, 4 November 2018
440: 162: 346:
Brandeis-connected source can count. As to whether every editorially controlled print publication is inherently notable, would you mind linking the guideline saying so?

It's good to see sources, but it would definitely be helpful to readers (and be much more consistent with Knowledge article format and style) to turn the

Thus far, I'm not sure any of those are met - a couple of references to the paper doesn't establish "frequently cited by other reliable sources."

Ummm ... then you found significant coverage in independent reliable sources of this campus paper? Spiffy. Where are those sources? Because

Yes, simply being a student paper doesn't make it inherently non-notable, but it would be presumed to be notable if it meets at least one of

No, simply being published for a long time does not establish notability. The history itself needs to be of significance. --

Ravenswing's objections seem to have been addressed by subsequent edits. Regarding each of the criteria for notability-

It's entirely possible that a bunch of those aren't notable either, but that is irrelevant to this discussion. --

Given that jenguller9 describes the work of the paper as "our work", they might definitely want to consider
