- Redirect to John King (author): or to Peter Mason (journalist), mentioned there. And in time, if secondary sources are added, expand back into a page (Redirect with possibilities). -Mushy Yank. 09:30, 27 March 2025 (UTC)

Relisting comment: Relisting. Two different Redirect target articles suggested here. Any more support for either one?

- Delete, while I appreciate that Mushy Yank has tried to suggest some possible targets as an WP:ATD, I am unable to see anything that supports any sort of notability for this magazine which doesn't seem to pass any of the basic criteria of WP:NMAGAZINE. The issue I have with a redirect is two-fold:
- That there is no clear target between the two co-authors
- That the term originates from, and is more commonly associated with Two Sevens Clash, which may be a better unrelated redirect target
- The sourcing is very poor, with around half to the periodical itself(?) and many others to websites (some now defunct) with no clear mention of the subject. Bungle (talk • contribs) 13:22, 17 April 2025 (UTC)
- Regretful delete. I can't shake the feeling that good sourcing might exist in print (the article itself is quite informative and well written), but I can't turn anything up in google scholar, newspapers.com, newspaperarchive.com, or proquest. And I think Bungle makes a good case that there's no good redirect target (the best target probably is the unrelated Two Sevens Clash). Since the prose is so high-quality, if someone does find good sourcing some day I hope they will see this deletion discussion and request a WP:REFUND. ~ L 🌸 (talk) 00:22, 18 April 2025 (UTC)
