- Delete per WP:ORG and WP:WEB. Individual usenet groups, like forums, are rarely notable, and nothing in the article suggests this is any exception whatsoever. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 14:09, 18 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete While zines were an important part of the early-1990s alternative culture, I don't know if we need an article on a newsgroup about zines. However, the alt.zines FAQ might make a great WP:EL in our article on zines. Squidfryerchef (talk) 02:04, 19 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge into zines. Colonel Warden (talk) 08:36, 19 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge: Usenet has a history but I don't feel that a discussion group about zines was/is notable enough to have it's own article. But I don't feel it should be fully deleted either so merge seems like a good option in this case. Soundvisions1 (talk) 03:14, 21 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
