Well-written but promotional article, not really meeting WP:NORG, citing only internal sources. COI of major contributor has been correctly declare on the article talk page - project done as part of  course work. Students should be pleased they've done a good job in constructing it (if you overlook all the bare urls in the refs). But does subject merit a page here on this encyclopaedia? I really don't feel it does. Nick Moyes (talk) 12:22, 13 January 2018 (UTC)

 * Merge with Oregon State University is the best outcome. I looked in the Oregon State article and found no mention of the media network, yet it is notable enough for a section. I hope this project was given an F because any student should know they need better sources and appropriately constructed references, but that issue can be resolved by a selective merge to avoid WP:UNDUE and to remove anything that fails WP:V. Per WP:CC BY-SA, we cannot delete an article that is used in a merge; this article would remain as a redirect to Oregon State University. Jack N. Stock (talk) 04:25, 14 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Merge with Oregon State University. At this time there aren't enough reliable sources to show that it is notable. But it could be an example of WP:TOOSOON and just need additional sources. I think an abbreviated version would be appropriate as a section under the UNI article. Randomeditor1000 (talk) 13:52, 19 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Selected Merge to Oregon State University They run the radio station KBVR which already has its own article and the newspaper The Daily Barometer. The television station is less notable though since it doesn't broadcast over the air, seems to basically be a cable public access channel, but still could be mentioned. I don't think the blogs/podcasts are notable though.--Rusf10 (talk) 04:05, 20 January 2018 (UTC)
