[edit] Reggae Makossa

This is a non-notable local radio show available on only one radio station. It has been airing for 21 years, but that should not make this program notable. Many television and radio stations have had long running local programs that aren't notable and should not have their own article. A mention in the station article should suffice.

• Comment -- It is a show on XETRA-FM, which is very likely the largest English-speaking station in the San Diego/Tijuana radio market. I don't think it can be dismissed as totally nonnotable, but I also don't think I know enough about it to have a vote. The article does need serious cleaning up. Haikupoet 00:10, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

• Merge to XETRA-FM. I disagree with Haikupoet, the station itself is currently rated 23rd in the San Diego market (Radio and Records Ratings for 18Jul2006). I think the show itself is notable enough to be mentioned on the XETRA-FM page, but not by itself, at least not without a lot more information about the show and it's history. Maybe create a Programs heading on the XETRA-FM page, add Makeda's name to the Personalities list, and the Reggae Makossa URL to the external links on the XETRA-FM page.
