List of African American newspapers in Nevada
Wikimedia list article

This is a list of African American newspapers that have been published in the state of Nevada, which was "the last state to remove itself from the list of states that have never had a Black newspaper" in the mid-20th century.
While the late 19th century saw a flourishing African American press in many other Western states and territories, Nevada's African American population at the time was very low, falling as low as 134 in 1900. As a result, during that early period, "no Negro-owned newspaper, even of the most ephemeral kind, was published in Nevada."

Why this record matters
The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as wikimedia list article. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
Vocabulary and entity names are the principal evidence signals here, because they determine the precision of every later search. The source revision retrieved here is dated Dec 26, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q85776959. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1900 and 1990.
Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
