The result was keep per overwhelming consensus. Rudget.talk 17:53, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable radio station. Sources provided only prove existence, the rest of the article fails WP:V. Mr.Z-man 05:45, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Strong Keep - The station has a license, the station is notable. If this station article is deleted, it opens a "can of worms" for ever station article, including the big ones. - NeutralHomer ^T:C 05:48, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: Per above. Licensed radio station. - Rjd0060 (talk) 05:58, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Strong Keep, per above -- if you get rid of this, then you must get rid of ALL radio and TV articles. Wikipedia should cover all stations, not just the big or popular stations. -- azumanga (talk) 06:24, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per Rjd0060. Maxa megalon 2000 06:55, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Strong keep - It's an FCC-licensed radio station. - Dravecky (talk) 07:55, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per above -- Anonymous Dissident^Talk 10:12, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Strong Keep The station has a license, the station is notable. Hammer1980·^talk 12:14, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Strong Keep Its a valid article. scope_creep (talk) 12:38, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Strong Keep Licensed radio stations are inherently notable. --Rtphokie (talk) 13:35, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Whoo a licensed radio station that doesn't make it inherently notable that just proves that the FCC said they can broadcast. Other than the FCC part this article doesn't pass WP:V at all. No sources saying how it is notable at all. Just another run of the mill radio station. Whispering 13:51, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Strong Keep (edit conflict) - As above, the stations has a licence with the FCC and therefore is notable. This nomination, should it succeeded, would have significant implications for all radio and television articles, either large or small on Wikipedia. I could imagine the BBC World Service, Voice of America or WRN could be nominated for deletion if this passes (no joke). --tgheretford (talk) 13:54, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Size or popularity is not a useful measurement to use when determining the notability of a radio station. Makes perfect sense to me to be comprehensive and cover all licensed stations. - Mgm|^(talk) 16:00, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I may be wrong, but aren't all FCC licenced stations inherently notable per consensus? Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(Broken clamshells•Otter chirps)} 16:24, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Strong Keep There is no reason to remove it. It's also notable. --businessman332211 (talk) 17:20, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
