Ephemeral publication. The article has three references. The first one (in the Historical Journal) is just an in-passing mention, giving the start and end date of the publication. The other two don't even seem to mention the magazine. Does not meet WP:GNG, hence: delete. Randykitty (talk) 08:56, 26 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Not eligible for soft deletion due to previous WP:PROD.

  • Weak keep. Being the first periodical published in the Bhojpuri language is historically significant enough to warrant encyclopedic inclusion. The periodical also appears to have changed names (or rather the script changed), so I am not confident the other sources "don't mention" the periodical. Given the language challenges involved I am uncertain that a proper WP:BEFORE search could be done by someone other than a language specialist in Bhojpuri and Devanagari. For this reason, I'm inclined to lean keep even without SIGCOV proved for certain.4meter4 (talk) 15:52, 10 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: Fails GNG. Sources in article and BEFORE do not show WP:IS WP:RS with WP:SIGCOV addressing the subject directly and indepth.  // Timothy :: talk  22:33, 10 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
