Confusion between different magazines with similar titles

Latest comment: 15 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

As it stands, the second sentence of the opening paragraph is wrong since, despite being registered with a similar (but not identical) name, there is no connection at all between "The Wide World magazine" (1898-1965) and the on-line "Wide World Magazine" (2009 to date). The sentence "It was resurrected etc" can be replaced with a hat note with a link to another article entitled (for example) "Wideworld (e-magazine)".Shadygrove2007 (talk) 10:30, 24 August 2010 (UTC)Reply
