@Jamesmcardle: This page looks to be of genuine interest for photographic historians. It is syndicated to a number of online and hardcopy news outlets and has been running for a decades. I do think the article could be tweaked to make it little more objective and I found some of the statements a little confusing like -

In 1983, the first theoretical book publication was the essay Für eine Philosophie der Fotografie by the ...

I wasn't sure if this was a separate publication and if it is it needed clarification on why it was included in an article about the magazine - perhaps it could also be included to add more weight to the article on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vil%C3%A9m_Flusser which is in need of more citations.

the section - Ethos European Photography contributed significantly to the theoretical debate about photography and new media and published programmatic texts early on, for example on Visualism[18][19] and emerging digital photography.[20] While initially focusing on young European photography, it soon turned to non-European developments as well, for example separately covering Australian[21]

could perhaps be improved by finding more independent commentary as citations 18-20 are all to the Magazine itself perhaps a small quote could work rather than the article editor making the statements.

I think the Academic resource section also makes it clear the magazine is a useful Academic resource and noteworthy. Eothan (talk) 10:51, 23 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your very thorough consideration of this article and your wise suggestions....I will now incorporate. Jamesmcardle(talk) 12:33, 23 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
