Non-notable magazine. No independent sources, no indication of notability. Does not meet WP:NMEDIA or WP:GNG. Guillaume2303 (talk) 07:50, 18 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The University of Washington Alumni Association (UWAA), founded in 1889, is a non-profit organization whose purpose is to connect alumni with the University of Washington and its mission. Today, the UWAA has approximately 50,000 members worldwide, making it one of the nation's largest alumni associations. Viewpoints Magazine, a publication in partnership with the diversity community of the University of Washington and the University of Washington Alumni Association, is distributed bi-annually to approximately 30,000 individuals. Therefore, the magazine is of some importance. Onefortyone (talk) 19:45, 18 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It may be of some importance, at least to U of Washington Alumni, but we need independent sources to be able to write about it in a reliable way. --Colapeninsula (talk) 21:35, 18 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Generally every alumni organization has its own magazine, as do most other types of groups of people. Not important to the rest of us, no sources, and not much to say on the topic adds up to not notable and not a worthwhile topic for an encyclopedia. Borock (talk) 15:26, 25 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
