• Keep for now.. While this article currently is certainly deleteable, it is tagged as being work in progress, perhaps the editor working on it will establish notability. TurningWork (talk) 08:39, 24 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete Editor has had time to establish notability and failed to do so, just another minor website trying to use wiki for publicity. TurningWork (talk) 14:32, 25 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete There is no sign of notability. Until there is reliable third party source this article fail Notability. —Preceding unsigned comment added by SkyWalker (talk • contribs) 14:51, 24 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep If it's verification that the creation of this document has been authorised by the Gaming Radio Network then I as a member of staff from the Gaming Radio Network can confirm that authorisation has been given. If it is being said that the website isn't enough proof that GRN is an active community then that is incorrect as well. We are running two radio stations which have an active community through our forums and IRC channels. Additionally we have had various interviews with developers which can also be accessed from the site. User:Shnooter —Preceding undated comment added 18:11, 24 March 2009 (UTC).[reply]
  • — Shnooter (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

• No, what's being questioned is whether GRN passes Wikipedia's
  reliable secondary sources. IE, has the network been the subject of press articles etc. Someoneanother 19:36, 24 March 2009 (UTC)[reply

• Existence is not equivalent to notability. We're not questioning that it exists. MuZemike 22:11, 24 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete – Aside from the lack of notability (I tried checking that through this Google search, and I came up empty), I also see
  promotion of the network, especially at the bottom half of the article—a Wiki-nono. MuZemike 22:23, 24 March 2009 (UTC)[reply

• Delete - not verifiably notable. -- samj _in^out 12:52, 25 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. Fails the notability test and nothing suggests that can be fixed. 9Nak (talk) 15:56, 25 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep Yes the site needs cleaning up. I do not think it should be deleted. I did find some other references to them. Since I am a long time listener, first time caller to Wikipedia I was not sure if these other sites counted towards notability. This is what I found.

  • — Darius Tor (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

• The data contained in those references seems to be supplied by the gameing radio network admins themselves, so I'm not really sure they can be counted as secondary sources for the perpose of establishing notability. TurningWork (talk) 23:53, 25 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete Although within the world of
  Eve-Online eve radio is notable, outside of that world it's not. It's not received coverage in reliable secondary sources. — raeky ^{(talk | edits)} 13:11, 26 March 2009 (UTC)[reply
