Plain Talk Politics

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

None of the independent references given but one says anything about Plain Talk Politics (as opposed to identifying someone as being on its staff). (The one exception mentions the beginning of the radio program. I'm not counting the one from ncspin, which my antivirus software kept me from visiting.) Google turns up fewer than 60 hits, none helping to establish notability under WP:GNG or WP:NWEB. —Largo Plazo (talk) 02:28, 23 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete - pathetically struggles to conceal the fact that there just isn't the requisite substantive coverage of the subject. Instead, we get a long series of casual passing mentions strung together. It just doesn't pass the requisite standards for notability. -- Orange Mike &#x007C;  Talk  15:25, 23 February 2014 (UTC)

 *  Delete - gives appearance to be largely a P.R./promotional outlet for some sort of commercial media endeavor, rather than providing material info on the subject. recent edits, references, and explanations suggest same. --Bartholomew J Roberts (talk) 16:28, 24 February 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete The references are either bare mentions, articles by the founder, or non-independent sites (which have also got or had articles by this author). PR stuff, in my opinion. More neutrally written than some of the rest, but there's no real show of notability and a fairly certain COI problem. Peridon (talk) 10:39, 25 February 2014 (UTC)
 * BTW my AV allowed me to visit ncspin, and you didn't miss much. I didn't even see this article's subject mentioned. Definitely nothing in depth about it, and the author's username suggests that it's rather close to their heart. Peridon (talk) 10:44, 25 February 2014 (UTC)
