[edit] BreakThru Radio
Non-notable internet radio station, fails WP:WEB. While a google search shows they've put out press releases claiming to have millions of listeners, their alexa ranking is 3,607,253 Xyzzyplugh 11:50, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. Unable to locate non-trivial third-party articles - a lot of press releases. I note the BreakThru Radio website doesn't have a hits-counter, either. I did find one apparent story in the Toronto Star, but it was a reprinted press release. Tychocat 12:25, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
- I don't know a whole lot about the station except that I like it. I use wikipedia all the time to look up things but this is the first time I felt inclined to edit any of the entries. I looked up breakthru on here the other day and saw it was up for deletion. I don't really understand the editing process but I'll do whatever I can to not delete it. I've gotten to know tons of bands from lots of different countries because of this station. I even have met one of their DJ's who I assume started the entry from its record. Her and I are from the same town and I see her at every show. If she is any indication as to what the site stands for than it needs to be on here. I'm not aware of their press releases and I'm not very knowledgeable about computers but I'd think that they do get millions of listners. A lot of kids at my highschool listen and I know their friends do to. I did a google search on Alexa and it's just one type of browser right? from the people I've met through myspace that listen to breakthru, they are all from other countries. I'm not trying to defend that statement, just that I really like this station and they deserve to be on wikipedia. again i don't know alot about wikipedia (other than looking up stuff) and I'm not a writer. If so i would to more to improve the entry.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.227.230.76 (talk • contribs)
- Delete, fails WP:WEB. Of course, any internet radio station is going to claim to have (insert very large number here) listeners. --Coredesat talk. o.o;; 22:17, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
