Non-notable radio show. Contested prod. ... discospinster talk 02:13, 20 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Strong delete it gets worse: it's only on a college student radio station, and it may be an online-only thing, which would make it speedy deletable as non-notable web content. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 14:39, 20 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment: I gotta say this because I keep seeing people saying things can be speedied for not being notable. A7 is only for articles that make no assertion whatsoever of importance. This article makes an assertion of importance (which is different than an assertion of notability), therefore it does not qualify for speedy deletion. — Preceding signed comment added by Cymru.lass (talk • contribs) 21:53, 20 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- I realize the question is moot because this is an AfD discussion, but what exactly is the claim to importance in the article? ... discospinster talk 22:12, 20 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Yeah, I've read it twice now (all 4 sentences of it) and don't see anything that asserts importance or notability whatsoever. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 00:30, 21 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- The article asserts that the show is popular. While that claim isn't cited, or nearly enough to prove notability, it's enough to save it from A7 and have it bumped to AfD. (That said, I did vote delete below...) — Preceding signed comment added by Cymru.lass (talk • contribs) 00:35, 21 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Without context or scope, "popular" is as meaningless as "awesome" or "zesty" would be. Given that this is student radio, and possibly not even on a real station, I suspect the context would be "popular [among the two presenters and their mums]".

- Delete - Not finding coverage in reliable sources for this topic. Just directory and blog entries. Northamerica1000(talk) 14:15, 21 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete zero indication of notability in the article. zero coverage in reliable 3rd party sources. Only G-hits are primary ones in social media created by the show's hosts or producers. This might not meet A7 but it might be speediable as spam. RadioFan (talk) 12:43, 24 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
