A University campus radio station . No evidence of any notability, Only refs are its own web-site and an Alumni year-book. Fails WP:GNG Velella ^{Velella Talk} 11:39, 19 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Withdrawn - previous AfD made this a redirect. Now changed back to that redirect. Velella ^{Velella Talk} 11:43, 19 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

And changed back to an article. Do you still want to withdraw.?PRehse (talk) 13:28, 19 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Although this article has a "lack of notability", I have added proper citations on the context, including articles from UP Diliman's official website (but not on the station's official website) and from Rappler. Zzrocket (talk) 14:34, 19 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The university is still directly affiliated with the station, so content on the university's website does not aid in demonstrating notability. Bearcat (talk) 18:14, 20 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - WP:ORG is not an appropriate guideline for this nom. Meets WP:BROADCAST and WP:STUDENTMEDIA easily. AkoyIanS (talk) 15:12, 19 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

*Keep The article had been improved its notability with additional cite references. I have no other additional comments but that's it. Aztegdude (talk) 10:40, 20 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I apologized for that. I'll be careful the next time around. Zzrocket (talk) 14:30, 20 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete THAT STATION IS A HOAX! IT MUST BE ELIMINATED! HoaxKiller401 (talk) 15:26, 20 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

You did something wrong. Please do not blank pages and add inappropriate speedy deletion templates to articles, suggesting they are hoaxes when they are clearly not. This suggests you are intentionally trying to remove articles you do not like. Neither course of action is appropriate. Zzrocket (talk) 17:27, 20 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Restore redirect to University of the Philippines Diliman. The notability test for a radio station is not passed just because the article says it's passed — it's passed only when its claims to passage are supported by reliable source coverage about the station in media other than itself. But of the seven footnotes here, five are to the university's own web page (which is still a directly affiliated primary source, and not support for notability), and the Rappler source is still a press release from the station itself (so still not support for notability). And the last one, PeriodismoHumano, is a citizen journalism project that allows anybody to submit their own personal journalism about anything, and thus still not valid support for notability because that type of publication can be (and often is) misused by people and organizations to game our rules by creating their own "media coverage" about themselves. The notability test for a radio station is not passed by what an article says, it's passed by how well the article can reference what it says to media coverage it didn't create itself — and the sources here simply aren't cutting it at all. So this can certainly be mentioned in the article on the university, as is standard for student radio stations, but these sources aren't adequate to earn it a standalone article separately from being mentioned in the university's article.

I've done removing unreliable sources but replaced with some verified information from Philippine Information Agency (and one from another yet source unrelated to the station). Hope this works well. Zzrocket (talk) 02:54, 21 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
