Open and shut WP:2DABS case - specifically, WP:ONEOTHER. There is one primary topic (WWVR), and the only other related page (WZJK) is linked from a hatnote. Taking it to AfD because the PROD tag was removed. schetm (talk) 03:45, 4 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. As I noted on another AFD, we have a long history of transitional disambiguation pages after a call sign change, followed a couple of years later by putting a hatnote on the article with the base call sign and moving it over top of the disambiguation page if the disambiguation page only has two entries. I've done those moves myself, conservatively, 100 times, and I have another three dozen or more on my "get around to it someday" list. Mlaffs (talk) 04:06, 4 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. A disambiguation page is not required here. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 13:10, 4 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

*Keep: Another annoying misuse of AfD because IDONTLIKEIT. Half tempted to make this a "Speedy Keep", OP definitely needs a nice TROUT. - Neutralhomer • Talk • 01:48, 5 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom and my reasoning here. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 06:05, 5 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: the peculiarities of US radio station names do not override the usual disambiguation rules, and there is no reason for this page to exist. PamD 14:53, 5 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Since there's only one station currently assigned to that callsign, there's no need to have a disambiguation page for such. A hatnote in WZJK will suffice since that's the only station the callsign was formerly assigned to. ASTIG😎 _{(ICE T • ICE CUBE)} 15:30, 6 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
