Semi-advertorial article about an internet radio stream, referenced almost entirely to its own self-published content about itself rather than to reliable source coverage -- even the few sources that are independent of it are still blogs or user-generated discussion forums, not real notability-supporting media. As always, every internet radio stream that exists at all does not get an automatic free pass over WP:NMEDIA just because its own self-published web presence technically verifies that it exists -- it would have to clear WP:GNG on the basis of reliable source coverage in media for an article to become earned.

  • Delete It ain't a radio station broadcasting anything over an FM station, and this entire article reads like fanfiction that even the most fervent radio fan wouldn't care about from a real licensed radio station. Nate (chatter) 20:34, 23 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, but with a comment that this article is better written than a good number of licensed AM/FM radio station articles on Wikipedia. Much of it is purely promotional, yes, but it's informative. StrikerforceTalk 22:27, 23 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
