Once more media covers this would that help? Or perhaps it should be a stub? ohegarty — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ohegarty (talk • contribs) 14:16, 5 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Whether stub or C/B/Good/Featured articles, notability must be established. And neither one nor two, but multiple WP:SECONDARY, WP:INDEPENDENT and WP:RELIABLE sources with substantial coverage. Radio station was launched on April 5, today. It actually is WP:TOOSOON to create an article on it. You may wish to keep it in your userspace till it receives significant coverage in multiple sources.


 * Delete. A search comes up with no coverage in reliable sources for this station; does not appear to meet WP:GNG at this time.  Gongshow   talk  16:23, 5 April 2014 (UTC)

 * Our notability rules for media extend a presumption of notability to CRTC-licensed AM or FM radio stations — they do not extend any automatic "just because it exists" notability to Internet radio services. For those, you need a much higher degree of reliable source coverage than the exactly none that's been provided here (the "sources" are all primary.) So no, NMEDIA does not cover this, and it should not be a stub. It's certainly possible that the volume of coverage that Radio Quirpon gets will increase in the future, and it will qualify for an article if and when that happens — but right now, it should be deleted.
