Article about a radio station, not properly referenced as passing WP:BCAST. There are four conditions that a radio station has to meet to qualify for a Wikipedia article -- operating with a proper broadcast license, as opposed to being a pirate or operating under the Philippine equivalent of North American Part 15/VF rules; originating some of its own programming, as opposed to being a rebroadcaster of something else; actually being on the air, as opposed to existing as a paper license that never actually launched; and all three of those facts being reliably sourceable to at least some minimal degree of media coverage about it. But the only "source" present here at all is a PDF directory chart uploaded to an open document storage platform, which (a) isn't media, so it isn't proof of the reliable sourcing condition in and of itself, (b) isn't verifiably a real government document, as opposed to a user-generated spreadsheet, so it isn't satisfactory proof of the licensing condition in and of itself, and (c) completely fails to contain any indication whatsoever of whether the other two conditions are met at all. So this one PDF is not, in and of itself, a free notability pass for a radio station in the absence of any other sourcing. Bearcat (talk) 19:27, 21 April 2019 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep. I added government and court documents that establish that the station is real. I wish that the broadcast regulator in the Philippines would add a database of stations to its website to make it easier to verify listings.  Eastmain (talk • contribs) 05:15, 22 April 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete - simply existing is not enough to establish notability - does not meet WP:GNG - Epinoia (talk) 04:09, 10 May 2019 (UTC)
