All-Campus Radio Network

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Contested prod. Original deletion reason: article fails to assert why this internet radio station is notable. Lacks 3rd party verifiable references

 * Speedy keep. Procedural nominations are not obligatory on contested PRODs. We have enough to do at AFD without having to consider them. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 16:12, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Please address the issue of substance - is this radio station notable from proper sources. Thanks, Gwernol 22:03, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
 * No opinion in that case, except that the trivia section has got to go. I couldn't tell whether you agreed with the PROD reason. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 03:12, 13 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete It's not inherently notable, unless it's an FCC licensed broadcaster. The Ohio University radio station is WOUB-FM and WOUB (AM), and from what I can tell, this partiuclar "college station" hasn't been broadcasting since 1974, when it went cable.  The article itself doesn't suggest notability, even if the claim of being the first college/cable radio station is verified by sources.  I like the "We have enough to do at AfD" argument, thanks to everyone for taking the time from their busy schedules. Mandsford (talk) 23:54, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete There are a couple of newspaper articles mentioning it in passing but all are focused on another subject. Lacks notability.--Rtphokie (talk) 12:08, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Support/keep if all radio stations with an FCC call sign even if defunct are notable i can't see why a network of radios even at the campus level would not be notableMY♥IN chile 06:55, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment Because, unlike licensed radio stations, there is no consensus among wikipedia editors that radio networks are inherently notable.--Rtphokie (talk) 00:42, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment Despite the name, I don't see anything in the article that indicates that it's on any campus, let alone "all campus", or that you can listen to it on a "radio" or that it's even a "network" (which would involve linking more than one broadcaster).
