Declined Prod. Prod Reason was "Unreferenced article that does not meet WP:GNG nor meets the specific notability guideline of WP:NCORP". Author of article declined the prod on the grounds of improvement by adding a link to the Alexa ranking. Per WP:ALEXA Alexa rankings do not confer encyclopedic notability. We come back to WP:GNG and WP:NCORP as the significant problems in this article. Hasteur (talk) 13:54, 30 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. It's unlikely that a specialised trade magazine like this is notable. Nick-D (talk) 03:43, 5 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete No indications that this local trade journal has any widespread notability. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 15:59, 6 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Adnews is heavily interwoven through this history of advertising in Australian, both under its current name and the name under which it was founded in 1928, "Advertising News". A Highbeam search also turns up many articles in "Australasian Business Intelligence" about its annual awards etc. AllyD (talk) 18:34, 6 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
delete it turns up hits but insufficient in-depth coverage to meet WP:GNG. LibStar (talk) 09:23, 12 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
