Another non-notable LPTV. How did KCDH-LP have The WB when it was on "KWMB" (via WB 100+)? Mvcg66b3r (talk) 04:20, 6 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose I'm not sold that this was not notable. To those in the area, it was considered their local access channel and is part of their local history. -- Ktkvtsh (talk) 07:30, 9 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

This probably requires a newspaper (Winnfield) that we do not have available. Coverage is nonexistent otherwise. Delete. It's not totally unreasonable that The WB was on KCDH in the pre-1998 period, by the way, but nothing is provable about this station.

Delete: Without seemingly any WP:SIGCOV, this subject fails all notability guidelines with the current sourcing. If sources can be found, I'd be happy to reconsider my vote. User:Let'srun 03:16, 17 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete What I could see is this station simulcasting WB100+ primetime on the local cable system as a condition of carriage, but it's doubtful that can be easily confirmed as whatever provided existed then was subsumed into Altice, and there's not much we can prove about this station's existence.

Delete: if Sammi Brie cannot find the requisite significant coverage to meet the GNG, it probably doesn't exist (at least in any easily-accessible sense). For what it's worth, while the station was listed by FamilyNet (its other claimed network) c. 2010 as having been authorized as an affiliate since 2000, none of the seemingly-contemporary WB affiliate lists I've seen (1995, ~1998) have included anything resembling this station. Even post-1998 carriage of The WB is not impossible: there were a small number of incumbent WB affiliates in these small markets that were not dropped right away (at least in the early days, the intent of WeB/The WB 100+ was to bring The WB to markets with an insufficient number of stations to get an actual affiliate—akin to Foxnet, which unlike WB 100+ was always more of a stopgap that never itself directly precluded a regular Fox affiliate if a station became available—without having to resorting to the WGN national feed carriage also in effect back then), and The WB 100+ did end up with a small number over-the-air affiliates where available in the early 2000s. (In and of itself, none of that is of much if any relevance to notability or the lack thereof, but I figured I'd attempt to tie up that loose end.)

Delete: Looks like the station really didn't have that much support but yeah, I don't understand the WB thing other than the 1995-2006 thing was false. It would be 1995-1998. Mer764Wiki (talk) 01:26, 18 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
