I created a sub (aka community/magazine) for the Waterloo region (Waterloo, Kitchener, Cambridge)
I intended this to be akin to r/Waterloo, since there's a ton of value in local recommendations and discussion. I've met some really cool people from the city subreddits and hope to rebuild that here.

Worth mentioning that https://lemmy.ca/c/waterloo exists and receives frequent submissions.

Ah, cool. Works for me. I'll make a post pointing the one I made at that. Thanks for letting me know.
Actually, that's weird. I can't seem to see it in kbin at all. It's a 404 when visited directly (no option to sub) and doesn't show up in the magazine search either.
That happened for the ontario_community_directory one, too. I thought maybe something was weird about the name or something, but that can't be the case if it happens here too. Anyone have guesses what's wrong?
This at least explains why I couldn't find it earlier.
I posted for help in https://kbin.social/m/kbinMeta/t/65917/Why-do-some-Lemmy-community-not-show-up-in-magazine
Just added it to the directory.

You've added them both under the City of Waterloo instead of the Region of Waterloo. Both community's descriptions state that they serve the Region.
