Non notable student-run 501(c)3 non-profit corporation, primary sourced promo. Fails WP:NORG. Theroadislong (talk) 08:22, 6 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to WVBR-FM: any notability that could be theoretically associated with this company is probably associated with its radio station, and not any subsequent additional ventures. WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 12:02, 6 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Disclosure: I'm an alumnus of this group, but I disagree with this point. Electric Buffalo Records (the student run record label under CMG) is building a track record of signing artists with a real following, best exemplified by https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Russell_(musician), who got his start with Electric Buffalo Records (cited here: https://cornellsun.com/2017/05/07/the-unconventional-and-honest-music-of-paul-russell/ ). I believe this, plus @NiftyyyNofteeeee's points below, contribute to the CMG's notability enough to merit its own page. 2.31.28.5 (talk) 12:01, 8 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to the suggested target, as a WP:ATD. No independent notability for this subject to meet the WP:GNG. Let'srun (talk) 23:20, 6 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I disagree because CMG is not just WVBR, it is a company containing also another radio station and record label. The company has a lot of historical relevance at Cornell and in Ithaca, NY Dalvago (talk) 15:32, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Mild Keep: The page may be kept, per significant and historically rich component of student life at Cornell University. Additionally, the CMG's legacy, dating back to 1935, is kind of impressive. References to newspapers or books from that era could help and contribute to its notability, which I believe can be verified. NiftyyyNofteeeee (talk) 13:52, 7 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to WVBR-FM, its sole property. Fails WP:NCORP. It sort of acts as an extension of the station. SBKSPP (talk) 01:48, 22 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
