Radio Cordac

non-notable radio station Rapido (talk) 13:45, 24 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment It's kind of a judgment call on whether this would qualify for inherent notability. According to the source materials, This was broadcasting in the African nation of Burundi, without objection from that nation's government, but then the government began requiring broadcast licenses and the station was denied.  Under the strict rule that refers to licenses, I don't think it would qualify.  It does get a mention here, but that's all.  Virtually no content.  Perhaps someone can write an article about radio stations in Burundi.  Mandsford (talk) 15:13, 24 December 2009 (UTC)

 * Keep. Google Books turns up three works that reference the closing of the station in the context of Burundi regime crackdowns on Christian missionaries; there's also quite a bit in the shortwave listening literature about how this radio station was a difficult one to catch.  Given how thin in general Wikipedia's coverage of Burundi is, I'd be inclined to WP:BETTER this rather than squelching it.  Edward Vielmetti (talk) 20:47, 24 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep. There are other documents which support the information contained in the article so therefore the article itself is valid.  Any improvements can be carried out at a later date as with any article.  --Cexycy (talk) 01:31, 25 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep. The Google Books search linked above finds far more coverage than is required to demonstrate notability. Phil Bridger (talk) 11:39, 27 December 2009 (UTC)
