 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep terrestrial radio broadcasters, even student ones, are generally notable. There's a good amount of unsourced and WP:UNDUE coverage in the article, but as a whole it should stay. power~enwiki ( π, ν ) 02:57, 11 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep vote struck after verifying that Bearcat's analysis is correct. I take no !vote position. power~enwiki ( π,  ν ) 20:49, 15 November 2017 (UTC)

 * Redirect to University of Liverpool. Per WP:NMEDIA, the presumption of notability for radio stations is only extended to stations that meet all of four conditions: (1) they have a broadcasting license from the appropriate regulatory authority, (2) they have an established broadcast history of actually being in operation rather than just existing as an unlaunched paper license, (3) they originate at least some of their own programming rather than operating solely as rebroadcasters, and (4) all three of those facts are reliably sourceable as true. If a station fails even one of those four conditions, it's out. But this fails #1 (it's stated as having operated only on ham radio and the internet, with no indication that it ever had an OFCOM license to broadcast on AM or FM) and #4 (it's sourced exclusively to its own self-published content about itself with no indication of any reliable source coverage in sources independent of itself). However, NMEDIA also specifies that student media outlets which do not qualify for their own standalone articles can, if verifiable, be mentioned in the article on the university or college that operates them — and this is plainly verifiable as existing even if it doesn't meet the standards required to get a standalone article.
