[edit] TNFL

Article about what appears to be a personal homepage. Alexa has no traffic ranking for this website [1] Thuresson 08:31, 28 November 2005 (UTC)

• Delete: Well, google gives us 557 hits on what are some pretty unique terms, so that's a start. And it seems to assert that Alexa is irrelevant Before anyone knew what Internet was the list was spread through Fidonet and BBSes (bulletin board systems). and it asserts notoriety through this statement: it has now grown to be the largest and most reliable frequency list in scandinavia. Now that gives a question as to notoriety. But then are frequency lists notable? Frequency_list on Wikipedia suggests not. Therefore, even being number 1, in this obscure category, I am afraid means a delete. Zordrac 09:00, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
• Comment: It may be a notable website, but it hardly seems to be the "most reliable frequency list in scandinavia". Repeated attempts to go to the external link provided simply timed out. Google gives a different link, but that redirects to the apparently non-functioning "new" site. Could just be a technical glitch. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 09:26, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
• Neutral - no links to the TNFL page outside of here. Maybe we should start with the term frequency list: is the term in the THFL article the same as the one in the Wikipedia? No, it isn't - the TNFL refers to broadcasting (radio) frequencies instead. B.Wind 09:53, 28 November 2005 (UTC)

On second thought, this should be merged with the appropriate article in radio broadcasting in Europe, that is, if Wikipedia should go into radio/TV frequency lists (such as often done for the United States) in the first place. B.Wind 09:53, 28 November 2005 (UTC)

• Delete, does not fullfill anything on WP:WEB. That does not mean an automatic deletion anyway, but pretty much all of the content on those pages are in Swedish. Maybe this belongs in Wikipedia, but not the english version. HackJandy 19:53, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
• Wikipedia has an interesting article about radio frequency but I don't think that article needs an external link to a web site with a list of Swedish FM stations. Thuresson 14:57, 30 November 2005 (UTC)
