Shellwood ( talk ) 11:10, 14 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep Currently broadcasting radio station and in-article sourcing is proper enough for me.  Nate • ( chatter ) 18:23, 14 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] How so?  What about the currently-provided sources or the fact that it is a "currently broadcasting radio station" means it is notable?  - Indy beetle ( talk ) 09:05, 15 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Change to redirect to Hyde County Schools My original vote was more of a weak keep than anything, and the sourcing was really thin without FCC links; it really doesn't help that the area served by the station doesn't even add up to 10,000 residents, so even when it was originating programming the only one likely sourcing it was the school itself and the on-air personnel.  I yield to WC and Sammi's good explanation here, and I'm trying to adjust my AfD rationales in this area to be less ITEXISTS.  I should also note even on the PRE website, I can't even really determine which network it broadcasts and outside the 'Android shakycam YouTube' disqualified source, it's just a true guess.  Nate • ( chatter ) 18:44, 16 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Alas, the best I can offer is a redirect to Hyde County Schools , the station's owner, though that seems less than ideal for various reasons.  (While the station is currently—but has not always been—a Public Radio East transmitter, the sourcing of that statement—an unlisted YouTube video posting of an unofficial recording of a station identification, which for multiple reasons should not count as a source at all in any sense —is so thin (if not, as I suggested, outright invalid for our purposes) that redirecting there does not appear to be the best, or in this case least-worst, course of action. ) A 2021 RfC established that the overpresumption of notability once contained within the likes of NMEDIA (an essay that the aforementioned RfC established would not be given guideline status) and BCASTOUTCOMES was incorrect, and confirmed that GNG is this topic area's notability barometer.  We require significant coverage , and the existing sources come up short there.  (And the fact that it is currently broadcasting is by no means a reason to keep — that just means it exists , but as another essay points out, existence is not notability .)

Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c ) 18:34, 16 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Redirect Without seemingly any WP:SIGCOV , this subject fails all notability guidelines.  Hyde County Schools makes as much sense as any other possible target.  User:Let'srun 03:20, 17 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate.
