Talk:X-Press Magazine

Readership stats

It might be interesting to add stats about readership, if that information can be collected from old issues? The official website doesn't seem like they updated their own stats after 2001. In 2015, X-Press resigned their CAB membership, so no longer audited their circulation/distribution.

Date	Circulation	Distribution Outlets	Delivered	Ref
Dec 1996	39,000	n/a	n/a	URL
March 1997	n/a	n/a	66,000	URL
Dec 1998	n/a	820	n/a	URL
April 2001	40,000	1,000	82,000	URL
June 2001	40,000	820	79,000 (note: date says 1998)	URL
June 2002	40,000	1,000	79,000 (as of March 2001)	URL

There would be more information in the issues themselves. The only digitised issue I can find is #35 which doesn't include any stats. Back issues previously available on Issuu have been removed. Jimmyjrg (talk) 14:09, 7 June 2025 (UTC)

Possible AI generated text

Concerns have been raised about AI-generated content in this article. This is a procedural talk page section to discuss it. There is no need to ping me in response. Further comments: since v1, see WP:AISIGNS Gnomingstuff (talk) 05:01, 15 May 2026 (UTC)

Is there any information regarding why or where the AI text is? I didn't find the page WP:AISIGNS very enlightening. It would be good if there were more specific details around the concerns.

@Stevene1919 created the page in 2025, so maybe he can comment on whether AI was used or not? I made a few edits that didn't use AI, and the other contributors have just been formatting fixes from what I can see. Jimmyjrg (talk) 07:48, 15 May 2026 (UTC)

i only used it to source ref's then checked them. no ai was used for writing it. seems like this is becoming more common now. cheers Stevene1919 (talk) 13:44, 3 July 2026 (UTC)
