- In order for an article on a podcast to stay, it has to demonstrate the Notability of the subject. Some of the criteria that a podcast article would be held to are on WP:WEB. Hope this helps. --cholmes75 (chit chat) 04:01, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks, I'll put more into the article before leaving it next time.
[edit] Please sign your talk page posts, Please use the sandbox for experimentation
Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button 
located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! Will (Talk - contribs) 08:30, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] (cool) shite on the tube
As User:Cholmes75 noted above, we have clear guidelines on what notability is for websites. Please take another look at them here. The criteria are:
- The content itself has been the subject of multiple non-trivial published works whose source is independent of the site itself.
- The website or content has won a well known and independent award, either from a publication or organisation.
- The content is distributed via a site which is both well known and independent of the creators, either through an online newspaper or magazine, an online publisher, or an online broadcaster.
Your article didn't claim that the "(cool) shite on the tube" site met any of these criteria, nor did your comment on the talk page which said: "It is notable due to it consistancy, longevity. It was one of the first movie and tv podcasts in the world and should have an article for that reason alone." but that doesn't address the specific criteria above. If the site meets one or more of the criteria above then please recreate the article with citations of reliable sources that show how it meets the criteria.
I am also removing your attempted AfD discussion since it is malformed and not what AfD is intended for - what you want is closer to deletion review but even that doesn't apply to speedy deletion. If you believe the article should be kept simply recreate it with cited sources to show how it meets notability. Thanks, Gwernol 14:03, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
