[edit] Regional radio stations

Regional radio stations (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

Article only provides limited spectrum of one geographical area, therefore should not hold a main generic article title. In addition, websites, player links, and type of player are superfluous as well as grounds to consider a spam article. If it is to be made into another article, it needs to conform to current radio station market articles currently in place in other areas around the world. Unreferenced information, Uncategorized. - Jameson L. Tai talk ♦ contribs 10:45, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete I've created this article and forgot to insert regional radio stations in LITHUANIA. So, I think this article must be deleted or changed and the word Lithuania added. I've added this article for hoping to turn on the radio station that doesn't play in my town.So I also recommended this article because not so many people listen to the regional radio stations in my country and many listens popular. I hope you understood me. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.61.239.63 (talk) 15:13, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom. Also, a list like this will rapidly go out of date. JohnCD (talk) 10:55, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete - redundant to list of radio stations in Lithuania, as far as I can tell, and not a suitable article title for a redirect. ~Matticus UC 11:07, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete. Per above; also, Wikipedia is not a web directory (note that the primary purpose of this page appears to be listing stations' online streams and web pages). Zetawoof(ζ) 12:28, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Note: This debate has been included in the list of Radio-related deletion discussions. —• Gene93k (talk) 14:21, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Merge This article contains information useful to the List of radio stations in Lithuania such as station frequency, community of license, and such. - Dravecky (talk) 14:24, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Merge to List of radio stations in Lithuania per Dravecky. DHowell (talk) 18:07, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
    • And to address the bad title issue, rename/move to a more sensible redirect term like Lithuania radio stations before merging. DHowell (talk) 09:23, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete, do not merge Radio stations are by definition regional; Lithuania doesn't have dibs on the term. Mangoe (talk) 00:22, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
Reply: Agreed about the term but there is useful information in the article in question that belongs in the Lithuania article so a merge is in order. - Dravecky (talk) 02:01, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete Under WP:NOT#LINK as a list of links and a vague criteria that isn't made clear in the article and could be about almost anything if it wasn't just about Lithuanian radio (such as clear channel and region dominant radio stations). Do merge other information that can be salvaged to List of radio stations in Lithuania. Nate • (chatter) 05:52, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Move any information that isn't already present there to List of radio stations in Lithuania. However, the title is not appropriate as a redirect to that list, as it could just as legitimately be a redirect to absolutely any radio stations list on Wikipedia. Merge but do not keep the title in place as a redirect, WP:GFDL or not. Bearcat (talk) 18:15, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
