[edit] Red Bar Radio

Red Bar Radio (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

This has been twice deleted through afd, I closed the second one just today, but the author asserts that there are new sources that will demonstrate notability. I restored the article so that s/he can insert those sources. If nothing materializes, this ought to be deleted and salted. Carlossuarez46 22:05, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

• Comment - No opinion on the article itself, but I'd strongly oppose salting. Often with well-established groups like this it's just a matter of time before someone credible decides to write an article about them, or some editor succeeds in digging up such an article. They're not exactly little-known or low-profile. — xDanielx^Talk 23:02, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
• Delete & SALT - Per previous AFD. Page can be unprotected by request at DRV or WP:RFPP Corpx 04:40, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
• Comment - What I don't get is that they have perfectly usable citations for notability that they don't put in the article. It's almost like they are milking the AfD process for laughs on their show or something... Speciate 05:30, 14 August 2007 (UTC)

• Comment - I can assure you the AfD process is not being milked for laughs, infact there has been no mention of this on air, the only reason this came to my attention and the attention of other fans is through the show's forums. We will be trying to get citation and cleanup of the article, but I do ask you to be patient, and not simply delete it again. Ice9 17:17, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
• Question - How can we site audio files, some of which are unavailable on the net.

• Comment - I have cited sources for questionable facts, if anything more needs cleaning up, let me know, otherwise please take this article off the AFD list. Thanks. Ice9 17:18, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
• Keep, this radio show appears to have coverage in reliable sources, including Wired Magazine and The Chicago Tribune, see Talk:Red Bar Radio#Notability. The Wired article can be found here. DHowell 00:09, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

• That wired link is not "significant coverage" Corpx 05:37, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

• Keep, because so long as the article is factually accurate it does assert notability with the celebrity guest list as well as the coverage mentoned by DHowell of above. --Le Grand Roi des Citrouilles^Tally-ho! 06:50, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
