Does not assert the topic's notability. — D. Wo. 22:36, 2 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep. Reads like an advertisement, has no categories, but it seems like it could stay given some cleanup. Ten Pound Hammer • (((Actions • Words))) 22:53, 2 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Weak delete. I'm not sure what precedent currently is regarding university radio stations, but consensus has long been that student organizations should not be included unless independantly notable. This one clearly fails WP:RS, so I'll assume that it's no more notable than any other school radio station. No objection to a line or two in the article about the school.

Improve Flash Radio was started by a group of students that had to fight campus officials to keep their station. The local TV and Print media was involved. They received much attention as a result. The media attention and political fight is why the article should be kept. Corydg 02:02, 4 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. If that's the case, then please provide sources in the article showing that Flash Radio is independently notable. As it is, there are only links to the station's own website and MySpace page. Heather 13:57, 4 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Mailer Diablo 11:34, 8 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per as Improve and Comment - indenpendent sources are vital R_Orange 18:50, 8 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I find, not necessarily the radio station in and of itself noteworthy, but the situation the students found themselves in regarding the administration of the college noteworthy. Placed in the context of the radio station, I say they established a noteworthy cause that includes the radio station. Shoessss 22:28, 8 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete There is zero notability, a failure of WP:NOTE, WP:RS and probably WP:COI. Is Corydg the station manager? Unless some non-trivial sources can be brought in I am afraid it must go. JodyB talk 00:26, 9 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete How can this be though notable, with the two "sources" being a MySpace page and its own website. Nor can we reasonably expect sources to be found, for is a very rare campus radio station that will be notable--just as for any other student club. DGG 01:52, 9 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete; OR and NN. Its been on air less than a year, the website has no info, and the myspace is virtually empty. John Vandenberg 13:38, 10 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete fails WP:N, WP:ORG no reliable sources and according to recently added edit no longer broadcasting.--Dakota 01:33, 11 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep The radio station had to fight the campus for the right to broadcast. This makes it pass WP:N. Also, according to the statons website, they are undergoing changes. Jkmartinjk 01:37, 11 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Can you provide a reliable source for that; i.e. has a local newspaper covered the struggle ? John Vandenberg 01:53, 11 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I can see if there is something. I know the original author of the article said there was local news coverage. I am from the area and heard about the issue but never actually saw it in the press. Jkmartinjk 02:30, 11 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
