Big John @ Breakfast: Anything that can be sourced can be merged to the article on Hallam FM , but I can't find anything out there that is independent SIGCOV for this show itself.

Flip Format ( talk ) 21:34, 12 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep :  A show which has on air for 24 years, and has won many industry awards, is clearly notable.  Rillington ( talk ) 00:44, 13 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment : I think you need to go back and look at WP:GNG and read how Wikipedia defines "notability".  Several of your comments are along these lines - it's a broadcasting radio station, so it's notable; it's been on the air for years, so it's notable.  These assertions don't tie in with the actual guideline, which is that the subject has to have had "significant coverage" in "reliable sources" that are "independent of the subject".  Before nominating, I look for this in various sources, and if I've nominated something, it's because I've been unable to find it during my own research.  In other cases, I find coverage and add it to flesh out an article that's otherwise unsourced.  If others (including you) can find WP:SIGCOV for the subject of an article I've nominated, then that's great, but just asserting "it's notable" carries little weight.  I haven't found anything for Big John @ Breakfast other than brief mentions in local papers and the radio trade press, nothing that would assert notability.  It appears to be a WP:MILL radio morning show like many others around the world that don't have their own articles.  Flip Format ( talk ) 11:16, 13 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment : I think we will always clash over Afd as I continue to hold the view that you seem to want articles deleted far too readily, although I note that you seem to have somewhat reigned in this instinct, which is good.  As you know, I am against AfD as a matter of course, not least as people have made an effort to produce, and update these articles, and to want them deleted is a bit like throwing all their efforts back at them by using a very narrow, even draconian, interpretation of rules to justify having their efforts deleted.  My view is to be positive about articles and it is very rare that I would ever advocate for anyone's efforts to be deleted, and this article does have sufficient independent references to further justify its inclusion.  Rillington ( talk ) 15:39, 13 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.  Relisting comment: As with most AFDs these days, we need more participation here.  Please add new comments below this notice.  Thanks, L iz Read!  Talk!  22:54, 19 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Merge and redirect to Hits Radio South Yorkshire where the show is mentioned.  Sources don't provide the significant coverage required to pass the GNG.  Regarding awards, there needs to be reporting independent of the award giver and radio station.  As the programme is ongoing there's still a chance of it becoming notable, so a redirect to the radio station is preferable to outright deletion.  Rupples ( talk ) 22:39, 24 April 2024 (UTC) To elaborate, the listing of award recipients is OK but doesn't tell us why the programme received the award.  If reviews of and discussions about the show/awards are sourced, it would help demonstrate notability.  Rupples ( talk ) 22:58, 24 April 2024 (UTC).  The limited content looks reliably sourced so can be merged rather than just redirected.  Changing my view to merge and redirect on reflection.  Rupples ( talk ) 20:28, 25 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Merge and redirect to Hits Radio South Yorkshire , not independantly notable.
