Hi, thanks for message. I deleted your article because

• it did not provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the notability guidelines. Sources that are not acceptable include those linked to the company, press releases, YouTube, IMDB, social media, Wikipedia and other sites that can be self-edited, blogs, websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance, and sites that are just reporting what the company claims or interviewing its management. You had no references at all. Note that references should be in-line so we can tell what fact each is supporting, and should not be bare urls. You had a list of external links, but they were clearly affiliated to or written by the company, except the last one which didn't mention the publication at all. The only external link should be to your main site.
• It's not clear how you meet the notability criteria linked above. To show notability you need hard verifiable facts such as the number of employees, turnover or profits. You certainly don't have enough employees to qualify, there is no financial information, and no verifiable figure for number of subscribers. None of your poets or staff seem to be notable (not linked to Wikipedia articles), and the staff shouldn't be listed because the list will soon become out of date.
• it was written in a promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic. Yours just tell you what the company is selling. Examples of unsourced or self-sourced claims presented as fact include: serves a platform for publishing and discovering new and emerging poets... It is distinguished from many other notable literary magazines... Working with authors such as Pulitzer Prize winner Tyehimba Jess, ... serves as a major endorsement for new writers... a beautifu... wide distribution online... high visibility on the website... exclusive mailing to agents— the whole article is just a sales pitch, with nothing about the company
• If you have a conflict of interest when editing this article, you must declare it. In particular, if you work directly or indirectly for the organisation, or otherwise are acting on its behalf, you are very strongly discouraged from attempting to write an article at all. If you are paid directly or indirectly by the organisation you are writing about, you are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Lordjeff20. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Lordjeff20|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. If you are being compensated, please provide the required disclosure. Note that editing with a COI is discouraged, but permitted as long as it is declared. Concealing a COI can lead to a block. Please do not edit further until you respond to this message.

Before attempting to write an article again, please make sure that the topic meets the notability criteria linked above, and check that you can find independent third party sources.

I'll shortly restore the article here edited to remove material I think is inappropriate. Please don's re-add deleted material, if you don't understand why it's gone, ask me Jimfbleak - talk to me? 07:08, 6 December 2017 (UTC)

I made this edit You don't seem to have taken on board what I've said above

• Having pointed out specific examples of promotional writing, I wasn't expecting that they would still be there.
• Most of your text is still unreferenced, referenced only to the publication's own website, or referenced to a contributor. If there are no genuinely independent third-party references, this article will fail on notability grounds. It may be that it just isn't notable enough for an article here, or that it's too soon, given that it's less than a year old
• There is also still nothing apart from what the publication claims to do, so it's still spammy with no facts such as financials. It's not even clear how it makes an income to pay its staff.
• I can't see where you have responded to the COI query above. Unless I've overlooked a reply, you should note that I will block you if you continue to edit without responding Note that editing with a COI is discouraged, but permitted as long as it is declared. Concealing a COI can lead to a block.
