Delete. WP:TOOSOON (and entirely unsourced) article about a radio station which "expects to be on the air by 2016", but hasn't verifiably gotten there yet as of August 2016. WP:NMEDIA requires a radio station to be in operation before it gets an article, and does not hand a planned station an automatic inclusion freebie just for holding a construction permit -- radio stations fail to launch and have their CPs expire far more often than one might expect, so we have to wait until a station has actually started broadcasting.

Delete; unlaunched stations do not enjoy the presumption of notability assumed for established/operating stations, and it's too soon to determine if the station has, or ever will, launch (they have until December 1, 2016 to do so). There's nothing verifiable out there to indicate WVDJ-LP is broadcasting yet. --WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 22:51, 20 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
