::''''Comment'' "WMEJ is the best station around" is an example of [[WP:ILIKEIT]], I'm not seeing any arguments that thin in this discussion. Contributors to this discussion are pointing to the FCC as a reliable, non-trivial source (along with other sources in the article) and a long held consensus that this is enough to establish notability. However, the nomination is beginning to look like a case of [[WP:IDONTLIKEIT]], not necessarily with the article in question but with the concensus on notability of licensed broadcast stations. --[[User:RadioFan|RadioFan]] ([[User talk:RadioFan|talk]]) 15:30, 14 June 2010 (UTC)

::: I don't see how an article about a single entity is a "directory" anyway. If someone wants to change the consensus that's described in [[WP:BROADCAST]], it requires that people agree that the consensus should change. In three years, however, I can't remember that we deleted an article about a government licensed radio or television station. [[User:Mandsford|Mandsford]] 15:38, 14 June 2010 (UTC)
