Global Christian Network (broadcaster)[edit]

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

Poorly sourced article about a religious television service with no strong claim to passing WP:NMEDIA. All of the references here are primary sources, not reliable or notability-supporting ones, and NMEDIA does not confer an automatic notability freebie on every broadcast entity that exists -- it accepts a broadcasting company as notable only if it can be reliably sourced as clearing GNG. There's also a very complex history here of editors failing to really pay attention to what they were doing: for much of its history, this article has been hiding in the edit history of a redirect to a Facebook group that has nothing whatsoever to do with this apart from having had the same name, and was thus the wrong link topic for every single thing that's actually linking to this title. So I reverted the redirect back to the article because the redirect was wrong, but the article isn't actually sourced well enough to stay here. The former redirect target isn't properly sourced as notable either, for the record, so it'll be coming to AFD as well, but the broadcaster and the "Christian precursor to Facebook" aren't the same thing.

Delete. There are a couple of refs which talk about the subject but they aren't sufficiently independent. Szzuk (talk) 16:22, 31 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
