[edit] Xtreme Radio
Unsourced article on non-notable UK student campus radio station with no notability asserted. Apparently won some student union awards, which don't add up to anything. Reads like spam, but probably been touched by too many [IP] editors to be speediable. Ohconfucius 03:41, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
- Keep Needs a bit of working sourcing the information, and removing some of the chaff, but it seems notable enough to me. Chriswiki 07:49, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. Student activity at a single school, filled with trivia, right down to email addresses and such! Oh, and if it even needs to be said, zero reliable sources. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 13:11, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
- Delete - for those who aren't familiar with the UK radio setup, a LPFM station isn't a 'real' station — it meant they've been authorised to set up a very low power transmitter (generally between 100-500m effective radius) to transmit within a small area. This is not a genuine radio station, it's a batch of students with a 1-watt (!) transmitter broadcasting to the on-campus dormitories of a relative small university (11,000 undergraduates, and many of those live off-campus); I'll lay good money that aside from the "captive" audience in campus shops and bars, the audience has never reached four figures — iridescenti (talk to me!) 17:04, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
- Interesting info, but the article doesn't mention the station being a LPFM, infact it doesn't mention FM at all in the text. This is (from the information given) an AM (Medium Wave) station. Chriswiki 07:56, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
