Article about a radio staton, which is not citing any reliable sources to get it over Wikipedia's criteria for the notability of radio stations. As always, radio stations are not handed an automatic inclusion freebie just because their own self-published websites about themselves technically verify that they exist -- one of the core conditions that a radio station has to meet to qualify for an article is that it can be referenced to some degree of coverage in sources that are independent of its own web presence, such as books or newspaper/magazine articles which properly verify the content. I'm not an expert in where to track down Bruneian media coverage, especially given that its secondary inclusion of Chinese and Nepali language content means that some sources may exist in languages I have no ability to read, so I'm willing to withdraw this if somebody can locate more evidence of reliable sourcing than I've been able to find -- but radio stations are not entitled to keep unsourced Wikipedia articles just because they have websites.

• Delete Does not meet WP:BCAST. I did find a newspaper called Borneo Bulletin (not sure about reliability), but they only mentioned the station in passing. Same with the book I found. Aurornisxui (talk) 21:27, 30 January 2019 (UTC)
