Since a few editors seem quick to nominate new articles for deletion, I wanted to note that I created this article because Enlightenment is a pretty major publication in the Who fandom world, plus it's been around for 25 years, which I think makes it the longest-running magazine of its kind next to DWM itself (I could be wrong). The magazine is also published to a professional standard - glossy pages, the lot - so it's not a case of someone photocopying the thing in a basement. There needs to be more added to the article, of course, but I thought I would get this stub going.

:I think you put in enough information not to call it a stub. I would call it a fanzine rather than a magazine, which I don't consider a pejorative label, merely as a descriptive one. --[[User:Stardizzy2|Stardizzy2]] 18:46, 31 July 2009 (UTC) | :I think you put in enough information not to call it a stub.

:: I shifted it into Tie-in Magazines for now. I did disagree at first about it not being called a magazine, however I just noticed on the cover the magazine ''self-identifies'' as a fanzine, so fair enough. As there is no fanzine category, Tie-in Magazines is as good a place as any until one is created. We should keep published works categorized together in any case.

The Doctor Who Fandom category (which is currently a redlink) would be more appropriate if an article on DWIN itself were created, I think. [[User:23skidoo|23skidoo]] 15:55, 1 August 2009 (UTC) | ||
