The result was delete. At the end of the day, notability and verifiability count the most; while the existance of the show can be verified from, discard the (unsourced) season summaries and you get a show that is not notable enough for its own article. Kimchi.sg 09:03, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

Vanity article about a college TV show. Unverifiable. Recury 20:12, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

Strong keep I've googled and found clear sources. Will add to article now. Gekedo 21:31, 12 November 2006 (UTC) And Comment - This is far from unverifiable...there is an official website as well as numerous references to the show, upon a Google search. However, I do think there is rather too much information here. Could do with a trim. Gekedo 21:35, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

Delete. No indication why this TV show is supposed to be notable. One source is actually a mirror of the Wikipedia article, two are associated with the show, one is a college newspaper article that briefly mentions it. Not really overwhelming. Sandstein 21:59, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

Strong keep This show, it's guest list, and some of it's subject matter dig surprisingly deep into college and professional sports as well as entertainment, particularly in the Pittsburgh region. I do agree that some details are a bit overkill, but as a whole, this show provides a meaningful look into the regional sportscape as well as the opinions and perceptions of those who are/were a aprt of it. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.60.153.103 (talk • contribs).

Strong keep This show was the flagship of a once dead University television station, and pretty much single-handedly brought it back to life. It laid the groundwork for a station that is still functioning to this day. Also, the show had on many regional guests and even a few national guests, rare for a local talk show. It allowed viewers to see local personalities in a way they normally didn't see. There are many sources online related to the show. It was available every week online long before networks began carrying shows online. It is an important piece of local programming history and reruns can still be viewed online to this day. Definitely deserves to keep the entry. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.46.6.70 (talk • contribs)


 * Delete. I've got socks more notable than this. WMMartin 20:56, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached  Please add new discussions below this notice. Thanks,


 * Delete per prior precedents on AfD, college or university broadcast stations which ONLY broadcast to their particular university do NOT deserve separate articles (though they can and should be mentioned on the article about the university itself). An article about a TV show on a college station that is only seen by students of said college is doubleplus not notable.  The lack of verifiable third party sources confirms this.  If multiple references in reputable press (unconnected to the show or college) about this show can be provided, I would change my vote.  --Jayron 32  05:51, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
