| paid_circulation = | unpaid_circulation = | total_circulation = | circulation_year =
The company parameter should list the publishing company. The publisher parameter should be the named person who publishes the magazine.
The previous_editor parameter should include earlier, notable, editors. In particular, the founding editor (if different from current editor), to a reasonable maximum number.
If image_file is a .djvu and a particular page is desired, then use the image_page parameter:
| image_page =
If other editing positions are required (e.g. Senior Editor or Associate Editor), use the additional editor fields show below.
