[edit] Proper Rock and Roll

This page is on a campus radio program, likely written by the show's host. I believe it contravenes the verifiability requirements of Wikipedia. WP policy requires that all articles in the main namespace "should refer only to facts, assertions, theories, ideas, claims, opinions, and arguments that have already been published by a reputable publisher." Since Wikipedia cannot conduct original research, nor put its articles through traditional methods of fact-checking and peer-review, all contributions to the mainspace should be based strictly on external sources that are reputable publications. If the subject of the article does not have at least a minimal body of work devoted to it, such as a newspaper clipping/report, magazine article, book, thesis, or other publication that meets the requirements of WP:V and WP:RS, it cannot be written about in the WP mainspace. Articles are required to comply with the three cardinal mainspace policies, WP:V, WP:NOR, and WP:NPOV. A subject that easily meets the WP:V (and the related WP:RS) requirements, such that multiple, independent reputable publications on the subject are extent, is said in common Wikipedia parlance to be notable. This does not appear to be the case with this radio show (nor its host, P. Briddy, also on AFD). Thus, delete. encephalon 21:57, 2 November 2005 (UTC)

• Delete; non-notable campus radio show. Note that two other related articles also have to be AFD'd and haven't yet (see Ken Cheesy, The Anarcha-Feminist Kool-Aid Acid Test). Bearcat 06:33, 3 November 2005 (UTC)
