Hi,
Edits have been made to this page by people who don't seem to know what they're talking about! I come today to re-read the entry I wrote and find that half of what I wrote has been replaced with INCORRECT details! I found all these details about Mayfair's history from an interview with Mayfair's founder Kenneth Bound in Vol 35 No 1 of the magazine, so I'm not just making this up!!
Going to change it all back now...... can I ask that people please know their subject before editing pages on Wikipedia?

Should the link to the fan site be left now that it requires a password? Rlquall 22:07, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
No. The Mayfair Files fan site closed permanently on 10th March 2006, as did all the other sections of that site, so I'm removing the link. 212.118.242.2 18:53, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
HISTORY OF MAYFAIR MAGAZINE WANTED If you are an expert on the history of Mayfair Magazine - please could you email Kim at takeawaymedia.co.uk We are currently researching a television programme for the BBC and are interested in info about the history of Mayfair and Top Shelf Mags in the late 1960s and 1970s. We are researching this subject until 16th Feb 2007. Please only get in touch up until that date. Many thanks
In the Legal Issues paragraph, it says that it is now illegal for 16 or 17 year olds to appear nude in the media. I thought that under 18's could appear as long as they had their parents written permission. Can anyone clear this up?. Tiger20001 08:57, 16 June 2007 (UTC)
Image:Mayfair 11 12.JPG is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

The way the first sentence of that section is written implies that Mayfair was a special case for featuring 16- and 17-year-old models. I'm sure that's not the case; didn't even the Sun have 16- and 17-year-old Page 3 girls? (Which does lead to an interesting question: what are archivists supposed to do? Is there an exemption to the law for them, and if not how can complete archives of such magazines/papers ever be kept?) Loganberry ( Talk) 19:28, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
Monikahajkovafan cites an article with Bound as being gospel. This is not the case - it is an interview that took place 35 years after the magazine launched. Bound will have forgotten things and will over the years have rewritten his history of the magazine. Statements that come from the article should be referenced so that discrepancies with other sources can be identified and the existence of confusion acknowledged.
For example, I believe the first sentence is wrong. Mayfair was not originally published under the title King. See http://www.magforum.com/mens/mensmagazinesatoz6.htm#kin (though it appears Raymond was involved in funding King in 1964). The titles were competitors for 1966-68, when Mayfair took over King - hence Mayfair carrying the line 'incorporating King' on its cover from v3n8 (1968 aug).

Having just added some references to this myself, I realise that it could probably do with tidying up, not least when two separate references are for the same edition of the magazine, eg both Brigitte Barclay and Kirsten Imrie have pictorials in Vol 24, no 12, published in December 1989. Does anyone know how it would be possible for these two references to be combined into one? If more models are added to the list then this issue will crop up more often.
