The WIRE

Unlicensed carrier current AM station. No indication of how it might meet notability guidelines. Lacks references to significant coverage in 3rd party sources. RadioFan (talk) 04:02, 15 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Merge selectively to the university's Gaylord College of Journalism and Mass Communication, which already mentions this station (being a DJ on it is part of a specific class they offer). Web searches find a bit of primary coverage from the university, social media, a press release published on a blog, and of course its WP entry and mirrors. Fails WP:N. --Hobbes Goodyear (talk) 05:15, 15 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Merge per previous commenter. Not notable enough for own article. Unlicensed carrier current station typically don't merit their own articles. Few diverse articles linking to this one. --Fightingirish (talk) 18:24, 16 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Merge, per Hobbes.--Epeefleche (talk) 07:18, 22 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
