This Magazine does not appear to exist anymore based on the removed URL now linking to a pronographic website. See This Link. Wxman28 (talk) 18:30, 5 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - The fact that the magazine is no longer published is not of itself a reason to delete the page. There are articles on many subjects which are no longer current. If it is deemed that there was enough coverage to demonstrate notability when it existed, a note of its closure could be included. The magazine's Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/ControlledEnvironmentsMagazine reports that ABM, the parent company of Controlled Environments, has ceased operations, giving a link to https://archive.foliomag.com/advantage-business-marketing-media-shuts-down. --David Biddulph (talk) 18:38, 5 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: No reliable sources are listed that establish the subject's notability. Multi7001 (talk) 04:07, 7 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: the only source cited is "an American Business Media Editorial Exclusive issued via Marketwire". A press release. A quick search reveals no significant coverage in any secondary source. AndyTheGrump (talk) 02:09, 9 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete while it no longer existing is irrelevant, as discussed above, I am unable to find sourcing to establish that the magazine ever was notable. Star Mississippi 18:51, 9 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Looking over wikipeida policies, I do realize that my initial reasoning for deletion proposal is not a reason to delete; I am pretty sure there are discontinued magazines more famous than this one that have there own articles. However, like the users above me, they note that a quick google search reveals only a few primary sources that cover the article, and no secondary sources cover it. Based on this, it likely does not meet WP:NOTABILITY. --Wxman28 (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 14:31, 12 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
