This is part of a trio of low-power television stations in Kansas that only carries national services and no real local content, along with KMJC-LD (already deleted at AfD) and KCKS-LD (currently also up for deletion). An overarching article for these identically programmed stations, TV25.tv, was redirected to KCKS-LD in a 2016 AfD. Even in the days of lax notability standards and even-laxer enforcement of them, I questioned in the TV25.tv AfD whether we really needed four articles related to that network of all-diginet LPTVs. Seven years later, we have reached the point where the correct number was/is/should be zero, and it has become more accepted that this simply isn't the type of station that gets the requisite significant coverage to meet the GNG — FCC records, directories, and network announcements of their new affiliate just won't do.

Delete. Here's the Reason: Per Nom and my response on KCKS-LD's article of deletion which was Delete. Also, a little note, I don't understand why WROB-LD callsign starts with a W instead of a K as per rules with most Kansas stations follow (in Topeka, most follow, besides, WIBW (580 AM, 94.5 FM, and Channel 13) which makes sense as it was created in Logansport, Indiana in 1925 and moved permanently to Topeka, Kansas around 1927-1928. In a nutshell, Delete. Mer764Wiki (talk) 00:01, 27 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I kinda forgot, there was/is no sources on the television stations. Mer764Wiki (talk) 00:47, 27 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Doesn't seem to meet WP:GNG based on the given sources - two of the resources strike me as press releases, which are inadmissible. — HelloAnnyong ^{(say whaaat?!)} 03:24, 27 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Subject does not meet the WP:GNG due to a lack of independent WP:SIGCOV. Sources are all press releases or FCC records, which aren't secondary. User:Let'srun 19:28, 27 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as well. Sources indicate not much WP:SIGCOV (if any at all); a quick search on my own turned up nothing of note. Xnyarla (talk) 04:19, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
