NN satellite radio organization - fails WP:NORG. UtherSRG (talk) 16:14, 8 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Radio, Christianity, Russia, and Ukraine. UtherSRG (talk) 16:14, 8 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: This station has plenty of in-depth coverage in Christian news outlets, including one article which was republished in Kentucky Today. Could any of these sources be considered independent, or does their religious character discount them? I can't find anything specific in the guidelines.

If the sources are not directly connected to the radio station then they may be useful, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 20:09, 8 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

If they are evangelical, they wouldn't have a neutral point of view on NLRM's evangelical purpose. - UtherSRG (talk) 11:35, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Post the sources here for evaluation and to help determine notability for this topic. Then if the article is kept, the sources can be copied there. ---Steve Quinn (talk) 06:08, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Also, evangelical or otherwise, just post them here. I think saying just because they are evangelical, they would not have a neutral point of view is overgeneralizing. If you want to save the article, then post whatever sources you have for evaluation. ---Steve Quinn (talk) 06:15, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Based on this, I am leaning towards delete. If anyone would like to weigh in with their views on the usefulness of these sources, I'd be glad to hear comments. Akakievich (talk) 17:42, 16 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Fails WP:BCAST and WP:NORG per Akakievich's analysis. SBKSPP (talk) 05:44, 17 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
