Delete. Proposed radio station whose construction permit expired unbuilt, meaning it never met WP:NMEDIA's condition about "established broadcast history" (i.e. actually operating). WP:WPRS has sometimes been lax about that condition, allowing radio station articles to be started as soon as the license approval was granted, but we have to crack down on that — if a station has never launched and never will, it doesn't merit its own article.

  • Delete: Station only existed "on paper" and did not actually broadcast. As such, article does not meet NMEDIA or GNG. - NeutralhomerTalk • 01:15 on August 14, 2016 (UTC)

  • Delete; the station never went to air; its construction permit expired unbuilt. Stations that never launched do not enjoy the presumption of notability assumed for established/operating stations. The only thing noteworthy about KGGG is a conflict with the Federal Aviation Administration that ultimately resulted in the entire Pacific Junction allocation being deleted by the FCC, but I don't think that's enough to keep an article about this station, especially since the article on the eventual occupant of 107.7 MHz in the Omaha market, KIMI, also mentions KGGG and its canceled permit. --WCQuidditch 22:06, 20 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
