Funny, I was thinking it would be an intern that's also skint. Mglovesfun (talk) 12:25, 18 September 2013 (UTC)Reply
Only one of the cites looks durably archived. DCDuring TALK 12:57, 18 September 2013 (UTC)Reply
Out of four newspapers notable enough to have Wikipedia articles and a book? -Cloudcuckoolander (talk) 16:37, 18 September 2013 (UTC)Reply
The citations now consists of a book, two college newspapers, a non-college newspaper, the title of a Usenet thread and a blog. — Ungoliant (Falai) 16:47, 26 September 2013 (UTC)Reply
It's hard to tell what actually reaches print and what doesn't. The book and Usenet certainly meet our requirements. The Washington Times and the Memphis Flyer seem to have print editions, but I can't tell for certain whether the articles in question actually reached print. The others seem less likely to be in print, but may be. What are we going to do when even fewer news publishers have paper editions? DCDuring TALK 18:21, 26 September 2013 (UTC)Reply
Passed. — Ungoliant (Falai) 09:12, 18 October 2013 (UTC)Reply


Really male?

[edit]

Any evidence that a skintern can be male, as the definition claims? I only see usage about young women. Equinox 22:39, 1 August 2020 (UTC)Reply

No? Then changed to female only. Equinox 03:52, 31 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
