Celtic Radio
AfDs for this article: 
 * – (View AfD) (View log)

An Internet radio station with some degree of notability (Boston globe article) - looks like advertising (user who posted it has the same name as the article name)  Random Time  15:10, 11 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment Deleted after an AFD in 2007 - although it could have gained notability from when it was first listed  Random Time  15:12, 11 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment I am sorry if I am not using this right, I am just one person trying to figure out how to submit an article on Celtic Radio since 2007. I don't understand why another radio station had their article published which is the same format as mine: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Celtic_Music_Radio I am just one person running a website and broadcast. They are a corporation with many people. I am not trying to advertise, if you think that then I will remove the link to CelticRadio.net. Alot of the great groups like Celtic Thunder, Celtic Woman and even Michael Flatley recommend Celtic Radio as a source for independent musicians. Well, I am sorry to both you again, but I just don't understand why my article is taking as advertising when I am just spelling the facts out of what we do. Again, I run this site by myself, so I don't know how to do it otherwise. Am I suppose to have someone else submit it? Thanks for your help. --Celticradio (talk) 15:32, 11 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Weak keep 57 google news hits UltraMagnusspeak 17:30, 11 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment most if not all of those Google news hits do not refer to the radio station in question. Peter Ballard (talk) 02:15, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
 * well, it is a weak keep --UltraMagnusspeak 15:20, 18 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Strong Delete, Possible Speedy Delete: Riiiiiiight, this is clearly not a conflict of interest. It clearly also isn't unambiguous advertising either. The fact that it has been deleted before for the same reason, hint perhaps? User:Nezzadar (speak) 21:03, 11 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Also, I recommend a user name block, as it is a violation of user name policy to advertise in a user name. User:Nezzadar (speak) 21:03, 11 October 2009 (UTC)


 * Comment Again, take a look at the wiki article above for Celtic Music Radio. I have not done anything different then they have done. I will contact the people running the WikiProject Radio Stations and see if they can help me out. It would be nice not to get sarcastic comments, why don't you explain to me what I can do to fix the article. I guess the best thing to do is delete it if that is your attitude about it. --66.92.78.217 (talk) 23:16, 11 October 2009 (UTC)
 * WP:OTHERCRAP - also, the main objections are that it was created as an advertising article (Conflict of interest between the user that created the page and the page's content). Celtic music radio also has reliable sources, per WP:NOTE  Random Time  21:08, 12 October 2009 (UTC)


 * Comment I understand now that username can not be the same as the article name. Thanks for point this out to me, did not realize that. We've done some things with Celtic Radio that even the multi-million dollar radio stations do not have. Like listener generated top ten count down that is completely automated and a linux based chat room that you can make requests through a BOT. Thanks again for helping me understand all of this. I am sure this will get deleted and that is ok. I will work on learning how to properly submit an article to Wikipedia.--66.92.78.217 (talk) 03:10, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
