The Space Show

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Despite being around for more than three years, nobody has added any evidence of notability to the article, or even removed the "our". Spam for non-notable radio programme. &mdash; RHaworth (talk · contribs) 15:07, 26 October 2012 (UTC) &mdash; RHaworth (talk · contribs) 15:07, 26 October 2012 (UTC)


 * Keep I've listened to the show and I think it's notable because of the people that have appeared on it. I think it's something that's "worthy of notice" which is the Wikipedia's notability test. These important space-related people are saying that the show is notable by giving their interviews, otherwise they presumably wouldn't.GliderMaven (talk) 15:34, 26 October 2012 (UTC)


 * Keep Meets WP:N - added 2006 NBC and 2009 Fox interviews, 2009 hosting of AIAA Augustine Commission panel discussion, and 2008 book page/review. Also finding citations of the show by others. --Lexein (talk) 17:21, 26 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep. Sufficient coverage by secondary sources. Aside from the sources already mentioned, the subject has been covered on Space.com and Universe Today, with more trivial mentions appearing on Bloomberg and MSNBC. Meets the general notability guideline.-- xanchester  (t)  11:49, 27 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep — the show is widely known (and notable) in the space community and frequently mentioned in "reliable sources" space press. It's survival for over ten years as a vehicle for space news and commentary is similarly notable.  The article could be improved, but the assertions currently made there are reasonably well-sourced.

 * I've been stymied here by not being able to tell which space press are independent and reliable sources, as in WP:42. A short list of the best space news sources, as measured by WP:N, WP:V would be helpful. Google doesn't know everything. This list should be stashed somewhere at WikiProject Space as a subpage. --Lexein (talk) 05:08, 29 October 2012 (UTC)
