Lack of Notable References Softdevusa (talk) 17:32, 27 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]


  • Delete - The article's subject fails to meet WP:N. While the article has only one reference so far, it is incapable of evidencing notability. The first reference is to twit.tv, as primary source, it is not a notable source and it does not evidence notability. Twit.tv has a vested interest in promoting the podcast, it is not evidence of notability.

    Searching for "MacBreak" on Google Web returns few pages (of 20 results each) do not appear to contain coverage of the broadcast that can indicate notability. Softdevusa (talk) 17:36, 27 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak Keep Guests and hosts on the MacBreak Weekly podcast are reliably and frequently quoted in Wired.com in discussions of up-and-coming Apple products. The show itself is also discussed in an article here, albeit not in an ideal level of detail. --I Jethrobot (talk) 19:30, 27 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - I'm surprised a Leo Laporte co-hosted show even got nominated for Afd. Besides Laporte, Macworld considered it one of "Our Favorite New Stuff". [1] (article preview). --Oakshade (talk) 20:14, 27 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
