Very little content. Zero secondary sources. Fails WP:GNG. AusLondonder (talk) 11:40, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

- Redirect to List of radio stations in U.S. territories#Guam: I can't imagine this is anything more than a run-of-the-mill religious station, and I'd be surprised if any significant coverage exists here to allow for anything more than a glorified directory entry. An {{R to list entry}} as an alternative to deletion is probably more than enough. WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 16:46, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

- Redirect to List of radio stations in U.S. territories was what I suggested in my deprod. AusLondonder believes deletion is preferred for this and a bunch of similar cases they're working through. I've brought this up but I haven't heard a good explanation for this preference. ~Kvng (talk) 17:23, 12 April 2024 (UTC)
- If you thought a redirect appropriate you were certainly welcome to do so. That's really up to you. I have explained my own view on my talkpage. KHMG could just as easily refer to this New Zealand real estate company which is about just as notable as this station. It could also be referring to this medical centre in California. As I pointed out some of these articles have been deleted, some redirected. I'm also concerned that the state-by-state lists are largely or completely unsourced, unverifiable and out of date.

- Does anyone think if I had WP:BLARED KHMG as part of my deprod it would be WP:LIKELY to be deleted at WP:MFD if someone nominated it? I don't think it would be but I can't remember having any of my WP:BLARS at WP:MFD and I don't have a lot of WP:MFD experience so I really don't know.
- When I have time, I do often WP:BLAR topics categories have experience with like non-notable songs to their album, non-notable books to their author, etc. With the 7-day prod timer ticking, I don't always have time to do those extra steps and this radio station issue is fairly new to me. ~Kvng (talk) 18:47, 12 April 2024 (UTC)
- This much is for certain: MfD would be the wrong venue in that scenario; redirects are discussed at the separate RfD process. Even there, though, it appears to be relatively common (though not necessarily a fait accompli, depending on the exact circumstances) that an RfD would result in a reversion to the article as a contested BLAR, which may either be accompanied by a suggestion to send it to AfD or even a more-immediate procedural AfD, so it is not out of the question that we'd end up here anyway.

- Sorry, forgot that RfD was separate from MfD. I'm just trying to determine if there is a good justification for deleting this as opposed to redirecting. AusLondonder argues that KHMG is ambiguous so that's one potential reason. If that's enough reason to delete a redirect at RfD than we might as well delete it here and now. My impression is that WP:CHEAP usually prevails at RfD but I don't have enough experience in redirect deletion discussions to know what counterarguments do prevail. ~Kvng (talk) 13:23, 13 April 2024 (UTC)
