The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result of the debate was No consensus, this is very borderline, but please note that the previous AfD had an overwhelming consensus to keep this article. I have to admit that the previous AfD was a factor in this decision, but even without that previous AfD, the consensus to delete is not high enough to warrant deleting this article.

I don't think local radio station year-end countdowns are notable enough to deserve articles, especially not notable enough to deserve an article for every year from 1980 to 2005. This main article and the 26 sub-articles should all be deleted. KROQ may be a popular station in L.A., but that doesn't mean all of its year end countdowns are notable. These countdowns were copied and pasted from this page of KROQ's official site. A link to the countdowns can be added to the main KROQ-FM article. Also, others may use these articles as a reason to create similar articles for their local radio stations. Musicpvm 20:00, 30 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per nom. Another list that exists just to be a list, with no claims to notability? Tychocat 20:45, 30 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. Important station, good information. This was a near unanimous Keep the last time it was nominated. --JJay 20:59, 30 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. --ColourBurst 21:03, 30 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete all. One radio station's best-of lists are not notable. BoojiBoy 21:25, 30 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Is KROQ a notable station? Absolutely. Are these interesting? To me, yes. Likely to others too. Are local radio station countdowns encyclopaedic, and are these being used to support anything? Nope and nope, so delete them and provide a link to the countdowns in the KROQ article. GassyGuy 22:28, 30 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep per all the reasons stated the LAST time this was put up for deletion!!! Parsssseltongue 23:16, 5 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comments a) it's a very old AfD (indeed a VfD); b) subsequent AfDs are not bound by it; and c) I do not find most of those reasons convincing -would you care to elaborate on which ones in particular strike you as applying here? SM247^{My Talk} 00:22, 6 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • Sure, if we don't have to enter a debate on it, since you've already stated you disagree. But I am of the opinion that it is a notable feature on a notable radio station. Parsssseltongue 16:24, 6 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
      • Comment OK. Each to his own I suppose. SM247^{My Talk} 04:51, 7 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
