The Metal Madman Radio Show

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

I am not convinced that there is sufficient notability here. Many of the references are no good at all. The Blabbermouth ones are the best but even they are not much more than passing mentions. If they had an article about the show in itself then that would be better but they are primarily articles about bands that mention them being on the show or having coverage on the shows website. Google shows little real RS coverage. The theme tune by Drover being the only significant thing and even then they are interested in Drover, not the show.

 * Question. What happens if nobody votes or comments? Do we treat it as an uncontested PROD or just keep on relisting it? Is there any way to drum up some interest without breaking the canvassing rules? --DanielRigal (talk) 12:33, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete. Notability does not appear to have been established per WP:WEB for this Internet radio show. (Incidentally, if nobody had voted or commented, I think it would have been appropriate for an admin to close the AfD with "no consensus" due to a general lack of interest in deletion. In other words, it would default to keep.) --Metropolitan90 (talk) 07:14, 12 July 2009 (UTC)
 * The AfD nominator could then feel free to WP:PROD the article. It is necessary to run the full PROD procedure the action is properly reviewed.


 * Delete. There are several "references", but they all contain no more than mentions of the subject.  There seems to be no independent third party coverage of this subject.  Wikipedia doesn't cover every media outlet.  Someone else has to write about it first.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 10:03, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
