The merger I propose is uncontroversial except as to which is the target. Pepso suggested that the merge target be Venture Science Fiction; I know the magazine is often indexed that way, and that is the form of the title on the cover. However, the masthead on every issue gives the title as "Venture Science Fiction Magazine", so I think that's the more bibliographically precise title to use.
I've added to this version some of the material from the other article. Mike Christie (talk) 23:39, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
Hello, this article has failed the good article for the reasons, the following is a list of the GA criteria:
The second criteria is one of the main problems, quotes like this But ultimately it was cancelled in the summer of 1958 having failed to gain enough circulation This is unreferenced and their are many other quotes like that throughout the article. The sixth criteria is less of a problem, the images have fair use rationales but they do not have a specific copyright tag on them, they just say that their is little chance of an alternate free version of the image. Once these problems have been addressed it will probably pass. Well done to all of the contributors. Kindest regards - The Sunshine Man 17:45, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

This sentence has been removed by a couple of editors: The cover, by Bert Tanner, is much weaker than the art provided by Ed Emshwiller for the first version of the magazine
, from the caption of one of the pictures. The sentence in the source that supports this is "The covers [by Tanner] were not as impressive as the earlier ones and could have hurt sales". I think this is sufficient support, though on looking at it now I would remove "much". The source is a respected encyclopedia of the genre.
CLCStudent, would you object to me returning the sentence, with "much" removed?
