Activate (newspaper)

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Does not meet WP:GNG, WP:NMEDIA, WP:NNEWSPAPER. The only source in the article is a primary source, their own website on WordPress. The newspapers seems to have some history but I can't find any RS verifying that. Apart from that there is no significant coverage of the newspaper in secondary RS. The newspaper gets mentioned only a few times for its own quote or twitter account in other media articles regarding the activity in the campus. One source that I found is written by an former editor and hence a primary source. Also important to note is that campus newspapers are very rarely notable as per University article guideline.
