I just added this page but am not clear on how much information is appropriate for a magazine reference. I described the one significant controversy involving the magazine (the reprinting of content from issue #1). Should I post a list of the main contents for each issue, or is this just an annoying list instead of useful information?

I see that most of the content for this entry has been deleted. This is the only (so far as I know) U.S. magazine specifically for non-religious home schoolers, so I think it deserves an entry. What kind of information should be posted about it? Suggestions? —Preceding

I added a couple of paragraphs about the magazine's unique POV and about its most widely distributed content. I used only sources that aren't by the magazine's editor or on the magazine's web site or blog. I think this helps.

Notability is presumed for newspapers,
magazines and journals that:
have produced award winning work
have served some sort of historic purpose or have a significant history
are considered by reliable sources to be authoritative in their subject area
are frequently cited by other reliable sources
are significant publications in ethnic and other non-trivial niche markets
I think the argument would be that secular home schoolers are a "non-trivial niche market" and this is the only publication serving that market. But if the publication has to meet all of those criteria, I agree that this does not. Unfortunately, the guidelines seem ambiguous about whether one or all of the criteria have to be met. —Preceding
