RE:Deleted radio lists

 * I am willing to provide you with copies of the deleted material which you can then recreate as you see appropriate, though I would recommend that you merge some of the lists together to avoid a future PROD tag being placed on them (or even an AfD for that matter). Those copies can be found here. Tiptoety  talk 15:31, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

Media in blank
Hi. I have little experience in articles on radio stations, but as I happened to be the administrator evaluating consensus in a recent series of AfDs wherein you addressed the question of creating such articles (see Articles for deletion/List of radio stations in Sacramento, for a single example), I just wanted to stop by to suggest that you might wish to discuss it an appropriate article or wikiproject. I see that you're active in WikiProject Radio Stations, and you might get some feedback there, but since it goes beyond that scope you might choose instead to bring it up at the talk page of the articles for the localities. While recreating the redirected/merged articles as they were would be problematic, incorporating them as pieces of other articles would not be. (You would, of course, need to note the merge of material in both the source & destination article summaries, as set out at Help:Merge.) Given how much work you seem to have put into the three articles I've seen today, I don't blame you for wanting to ensure that such new articles would be welcome before creating them. Good luck with it. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 16:16, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Oh, P.S., I noticed your reference in AfD to your arrival too late to contest the PRODded articles listed above. If you want the content from those PRODded articles, please let me know, and I will happily userfy them. You should also be able to have them restored to article space on request at WP:DRV, which is common practice with contested PRODs, but given obvious consensus at the three AfDs, I'd like to ask that you please consider not doing so. I think it would be much better to find a format for the information that will not result in a rash of new AfDs, perhaps in the "media" articles that you are considering. I've got your page watchlisted in case you'd like to discuss this with me further. If you're gone more than a few days or if you leave a note that I miss, please feel free to prompt me at my talk page. :) --Moonriddengirl (talk) 16:23, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Hi. I would actually appreciate if you could restore the other lists (see User talk:Tiptoety/Archive 8 for a list of them). While the deleting admin userfied the content, I would like the edit histories for GFDL reasons and to verify changes made by others to these lists. In line with the AfD results, feel free to redirect all of the lists to List of radio stations in California, or to move them to my userspace. Thanks. DHowell (talk) 23:35, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
 * All right. Would you prefer them in your userspace or redirected? --Moonriddengirl (talk) 00:30, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I guess put them in my userspace, that way I can work on them while I try to figure out what I'm going to eventually do with them. DHowell (talk) 04:02, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
