Another closed-circuit hospital radio station which does not meet WP:BASIC. Article completely unsourced and research does not reveal much (if any) coverage, other than a single event in 2016 which attracted some offbeat news coverage [1]. Flip Format (talk) 14:55, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Unfortunately there are many, many hundreds of completely unsourced, non-notable radio station articles (of which this is one) on Wikipedia due to previous policy effectively suggesting all radio stations were inherently notable. While it is a shame to see people's work be deleted, without sources we have no credibility, we effectively become a social media site. It's extraordinary how many of these articles have existed for 10-20 years with literally no sources. I also note that the page was specifically created to "advertise the station as much as possible" AusLondonder (talk) 17:58, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
