Felixstowe Radio

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Non notable radio station, The only source I managed to find was something to do with a carnival[1] which for a 9 year old station is extremely poor!, If it's taken 10 years just for that bit of source then this station's screwed notability-wise!, Fails GNG. –Davey2010^Talk 21:00, 2 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Given this is a community radio station with limited range (5-10km for community stations in the UK) I'm not surprised you couldn't find any national secondary sources :-) Perhaps it's worth collapsing the set of UK community radio stations (many of which have similar pages and are likely to be similarly non-notable - sorry I haven't gone looking yet) into a tabular format? I need to declare a vested interested of course: I'm the volunteer technical manager at Felixstowe Radio. Phlash909 (talk) 00:35, 3 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Phlash909 - There is a table somewhere as that's where I've been basically nominating via, To be fair tho there's quite alot of community stations here that are notable, We could redirect to the table I suppose but I'm not sure there was much info there, –Davey2010^Talk 00:46, 3 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Well the list is at List of radio stations in the United Kingdom but for the community section there's barely anything there and so IMHO redirecting all stations there would be pointless, Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 00:49, 3 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

OK thanks - I hadn't seen that page, that pretty much covers what I was suggesting by 'collapsing into tabular format', I wasn't suggesting lots of redirects. Phlash909 (talk) 01:04, 3 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Haha I didn't even realize you said that!, Think I need to go sleep

, I know but if we redirect this then we'd really need to redirect them all and to be honest it seems to much flaffing around

Quick comment - Before anyone !votes redirect I'll be removing all redlinks/afd-deleted articles from that table, The table is pretty much useless as it stands (Sure it can be improved but it's unlikely it ever will be so there's no point in creating heavy work for nothing.) –Davey2010^Talk 13:19, 3 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Redirect to List of radio stations in the United Kingdom - not sure if Davey2010 is done with his maintenance of that table, but it seems a better choice than simply deleting. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 18:29, 17 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Hi onel5969- I've began to remove redlinked/deleted articles on the table, As it stands the table is useless information wise (There's not much info on the table so redirecting IMHO is pointless and seeing as half of my nominated radio stations have been deleted it makes sense to just delete the lot instead of deleting 98% and perhaps redirecting 2% of the stations :), Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 18:57, 17 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
