• Weak redirect to San Fernando, La Union per WP:ATD; can't find anything that looks like it could constitute significant coverage apart from this and this, both of which I can't view and would probably be very similar in content. J947 ^(c), at 00:49, 7 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment: it might meet BCAST if there's evidence of "a large audience, established broadcast history, or being the originator of some programming". PK650 (talk) 20:48, 11 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep: The sources in the article state that the station exists. One of them indicates some programming from the station. _SUPER ^ASTIG 02:30, 13 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• @Superastig: How exactly does that satisfy GNG or BROADCAST? J947 ^(c), at 06:16, 13 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• An article from an old magazine stated an old program in that station. The 2011 NTC Listing from PSA, 2019 NTC Listing from FOI and a Record Book from OFDA state that the station exists. Hence, the article is good enough WP:BROADCAST and WP:NMEDIA. I'm not gonna explain further as I'm not looking for a debate. I rest my case. _SUPER ^ASTIG 12:09, 13 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• I know that you will not discuss further, but you do seem to have a fundamental misunderstanding of WP:BROADCAST. That guideline says about radio stations:Notability can be established by either a large audience, established broadcast history, or being the originator of some programming. The station merely being stated as existing by a source is nowhere near enough to satisfy either guideline. Perhaps you are thinking of WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES.

• Delete - this, in common with the myriad other stubs the same user has created for Philippines radio stations, has no evidence of notability. The fact that it WP:EXISTS is irrelevant. It does not meet the WP:GNG or WP:BROADCAST Hug^syrup 11:37, 13 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Weak delete – the keep argument is insufficient for establishing notability. However, I am a bit hesitant to vote delete if there's a chance that the book sources that PK650J947 identified actually do contain significant coverage. I would however vote against redirecting to San Fernando, La Union, as that doesn't have any information about the subject and will likely only cause confusion. _signed, Rosguill ^talk 00:37, 15 December 2019 (UTC) 06:24, 15 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Not PK650; me. Given that they are from the same publisher I don't really think that would qualify it for GNG and it does seem rather like routine coverage of every radio station in the area. Think there would be significant coverage in there but still think it wouldn't be notable overall. J947 ^(c), at 01:44, 15 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  J947, my apologies for misidentifying your contributions. _signed, Rosguill ^talk 06:23, 15 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  No problems. J947 ^(c), at 06:55, 15 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
