no evidence for notability -- all sources are primary from the magazine, or a peripheral mention from Huff Post. DGG ( talk ) 05:36, 25 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. The only independent RS is the Huffington Post whose article is not about C Magazine, it is about Katie Holmes and what she said in her interview in C. The article is also a bit spammy. SpinningSpark 16:17, 25 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. It's been around for some five years. The L.A. Times called it "a glossy lifestyle publication" based in Santa Monica. Its P.R. department should get busy trying to get it written up in a reliable source instead of pushing it onto Wikipedia before it becomes really well-known. That said, it warrants an article in WP, but the present article should be cleansed of puff and made thinner until it gets more notice by WP:Reliable sources, which I propose to do.

Delete. As Spinningspark notes, existence is not notability. It's good that the article has been cleared of puffery, but the result just makes it clear that the magazine is not (yet) notable. If reliable sources provide more coverage in the future, the article can be revived. --RL0919 (talk) 16:55, 9 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
