The article is on a Bengali little magazine, I have searched in Google (English and Bengali) but can not find many sources writing about this journal. According to the article the journal started publishing in 2009. Since this is not that old, I hoped to see more reliable sources. They have added a wordpress blog as official site. The Facebook page has 130 likes. In short, I am unsure if it is a notable magazine! Tito Dutta (contact) 17:23, 16 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep this article. This is an important philosophical little magazine about the new philosophy Drishtantoism, which is started a new era in Bengali literature. It is a known issue that not too many newspapers cover little magazines. But, I can find mentions in provide some links of webpages, avoid wordpress, webs, blogspot type URLs. Newspapers (no problem if it is in Bengali) will be helpful. --Leela Bratee (talk • contributions • email) 14:17, 2 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This isn't an appropriate rationale. In fact, it's copied almost verbatim from what User:Titodutta suggested you would have to bring to the article in order to keep it. At this point, we need reliable, third-party published sources establishing the importance of this subject. Woodroar (talk) 13:41, 2 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sources are categorized bellow related to this article :
About publications & address : Bangladesh online business directory
Description : Bangladesh Yellow Pages
Philosophical work : Drishtantoism
So, I think it has important for its philosophical work about the new Bengali philosophy Drishtantoism. And I requested to keep this article and give chances to others by expanding it. --Leela Bratee (talk • contributions • email) 02:45, 3 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry, but we're looking for reliable, third-party published sources. Directories such as Yellow Pages are essentially user submitted: they may show that something exists—although they really don't, because all an entry means is that someone paid to list their business—but not that they are notable. We're looking for sources like major newspapers, journals, and books written about the subject, not just a one-sentence mention on a blog. Woodroar (talk) 01:10, 3 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
