Merge to Operations (magazine) as an ATD. Jclemens (talk) 22:12, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe redirect because the article is mostly unreferenced, and the one reference that does exist is an unreliable source. SL93 (talk) 22:35, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Depending on whatever else shows up in this AfD, that may be the reasonable outcome. I'm open to see what others can come up with, as I know we have plenty who are more accomplished board gaming source hunters than I am. Jclemens (talk) 23:00, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'd lean "delete" since I don't know how a self-published zine that relies entirely on itself for information about itself can be kept, but since there is a valid target I'll go with redirect. There's nothing in the article adequately sourced to merge. Dclemens1971 (talk) 03:18, 3 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
