Radio Lumbini

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

The only independent, reliable sources that give meaningful coverage to the station that I can find are this and this, both of which give little coverage to the station itself and focus on the rejuvenation of Nepalese radio in general. The latter does detail some information about the station but not in anywhere near as much depth as is needed for a Wikipedia article.  Dr Strauss   talk   14:32, 1 October 2017 (UTC)

 * Keep. Articles on broadcast radio stations in the Anglophone West are invariably kept, even without sources such as those linked by the nominator which pretty obviously constitute significant coverage in independent reliable sources. Why treat a radio station in Nepal any differently? Is this an encyclopedia about only English speakers? Or maybe about only white Western people? 86.17.222.157 (talk) 21:55, 2 October 2017 (UTC)
 * That's the second time you've played the race card recently (first time). Both of them were on AfDs I nominated. , are you accusing me of racism?  Because if so, I point you to WP:NPA.  Furthermore, your argument is essentially other stuff exists which isn't a very good rationale.    Dr Strauss   talk   22:41, 2 October 2017 (UTC)
 * I don't see any mention of "race". Whatever meaning that construct has, it doesn't mean "non-Anglophone".  DGG ( talk ) 01:21, 4 October 2017 (UTC)
 * the user has struck white from their sentence. "White" is often used to describe Caucasian people, therein lies the racial element.    Dr Strauss   talk   15:15, 4 October 2017 (UTC)


 * Keep Terrestrial radio broadcast stations that can be verified to exist are generally notable.  is a master's thesis on the station. power~enwiki ( π,  ν )
 * Keep We normally do keep broadcast stations, despite the recognition that it is difficult to find material that satisfies the requirements of the GNG. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DGG (talk • contribs)
