Clean up and keep. Just looking for five minutes, I see a couple articles ([1], [2]) and many books ([3], [4], [5], [6], [7], [8], [9], [10]) that verify that the article is notable as a leading publication for Web designers and programmers. It easily passes the WP:WEB requirements. Steven Walling • talk 01:13, 29 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Low quality article but sufficient sources for notability DGG ( talk ) 23:35, 30 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Keep It seems quite well-respected and popular[11][12] and while the article needs external sources, the ones provided above are sufficient and should be transferred to the article. --Colapeninsula (talk) 09:20, 2 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Strong Keep : For many years, one of the most widely read and respected periodicals of contemporary web design. Many articles published in A List Apart have been extremely influential. Not even a close judgment call; this is probably the leading web design periodical of the past decade. MarkBernstein (talk) 18:03, 2 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
