Draft:Middle East International

  • Comment: First two sources are 404 pages. The rest appear to verify it exists but no significant coverage of the publication. There are also a lot of primary references which cannot be used to establish notability. Will leave for another reviewer in case they have access to the online sources, but do not see it meeting notability with what I can verify. CNMall41 (talk) 01:49, 14 September 2024 (UTC)
I have left the first reference to the British Library since I believe the issue is fire damage and it is to be hoped the link will be restored. All the links were good two years ago. I don’t know what has happened to the New York link so I have replaced it with one to the Scottish National Library. I have also removed the ANAF links to Zurich - I don’t know what has happened but they were good with images of actual documents. Padres Hana (talk) 21:29, 14 September 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: Please do not resubmit without making any improvements to the draft, as it will simply get rejected again. Randykitty (talk) 17:45, 15 March 2022 (UTC)
  • Comment: The references are mostly about the editors/publishers and do not, or just in passing, mention the journal. In-depth independent sources are needed to establish notability. Randykitty (talk) 17:20, 14 March 2022 (UTC)

Middle East International was a bi-monthly magazine published in London from 1971 until 2005, reaching a total of 761 editions.[1][2][3][4] It was established by Christopher Mayhew and a group of senior British politicians and diplomats. The original publisher was Claud Morris, a newspaper magnate, who withdrew after a boycott by advertisers and a arson attack on his printing works.[5][6] Mayhew was to remain the director until his death in 1997. It has been described as having been "one of the best-informed journals of current Middle East affairs".[7]

Its aim was to "provide intelligent, authoritative, and independent news and analysis on the Middle East".[8]
