This article about a Ugandan radio station has been created by a COI editor and in my eyes does not meet the WP:GNG. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 23:07, 9 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Despite the admirable efforts by an editor obviously tainted with a conflict of interest, the sources appear to be numerous but quality-wise they are vaporous. We have advertorials such as this (sample prose: "top-notch radio content"), this ("are they going to Poach everything good?"), and this ("much anticipated"); some are even explicitly helpful in the company's relaunch after closing, e.g. here ("suspended all normal programming to realign in light of new industry realities and the need to remain competitive"); corporate announcements in other websites, such as this or in the company's own, as in here; then admissions that the subject is actually not that notable ("failed to make it among the top radio stations in the country") and a few deceased links such as this. The generous assessment would be "it may be too soon", submitted along with a wish to make it in the future. -The Gnome (talk) 11:16, 15 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
