[edit] Oxide radio
Unreferenced, WP:COI issues, and while Oxford University is notable, this particular online radio doesn't seem to be. VivioFateFan (Talk, Sandbox) 04:13, 19 January 2008 (UTC)
- I've created the page since other online radio stations (LSRFM (Leeds), Surge (Southampton)) have active pages. I am working with the station manager regarding history and other details, and will put a stub on the page. Oxide is a popular station around Oxford and I believe is noteable, especially if other university radio stations can have pages. Oxideradio (talk) 04:41, 19 January 2008 (UTC)
- Delete, per Vivio. -- Jeandré, 2008-01-19t05:40z
- Keep, appears to be in the early stages of editing. Let's at least give them a chance to find some references rather than jumping over them as soon as the article is started. --129.67.162.133 (talk) 10:46, 19 January 2008 (UTC)
- Note I decided to be charitable and help them out. The article is now referenced (I apologise for not knowing the style, I always have problems figuring that out - I've just left them as external links for now), so I think we've established notability. There are still COI issues, but that isn't enough to warrant deletion. --129.67.162.133 (talk) 11:26, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

- Weak Keep, station has won at least three Student Radio Awards, but otherwise not much notability is established. Jeodesic (talk) 15:36, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
- Weak delete Though I did find a source on NME, it was a blog. The other 10 pages of Google proved fruitless. I'm sure this is notable on the campus, but off-campus it doesn't seem to be so. Master of Puppets Call me MoP!☺ 03:26, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
