There could be some merit in having these sorts of magazine pages on Retro CDN - documenting what our sources actually are, along with details of when they were released and where.
For example, the UK magazines CVG and Mean Machines were produced in the same building and probably shared a lot of resources. They will share knowledge and probably print the same mistakes, so it would be preferable to not have a statement referenced by both. But it might not be immediately obvious to users that this is the case.
A year or two ago I set off on a quest to try and prove a recently-released prototype of Aladdin wasn't from Summer CES 1993 - took a while to find all the magazines printed from around that period. We could present things better. -Black Squirrel (talk) 13:03, 16 August 2018 (CDT)
