None of the sources meet the definition of Reliable Sources. The only real indicator of possible notability I see is the ranking at Podcast Alley. except PA is a site that does not have it's own page on the project. So a ranking on a non-notable site does not show notability. TexasAndroid (talk) 13:08, 17 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete No established notability. Claims of high ranking at iTunes (complete with links) cannot be verified as the provided links to not land on a page that even mentions this podcast. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 18:20, 17 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Podcast Alley, while it might be a GOODCHART someday, is at the moment run by just one guy. No other listed sources come close to RS, sorry. No objection to mentioning the podcast in some other appropriate article per WP:NNC. Jclemens (talk) 01:32, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Do Not Delete Currently ranked 3rd under iTunes Religion & Spirituality/subCategory Other. Can obviously be verified with anyone who owns the iTunes software. (Viewed 10:30pm EST) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Littlecodemonkey (talk • contribs)

*Do Not Delete Because of the new technology of podcasts it is difficult to get a reliable source of popularity on any podcast. Podcasts such as http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Brewing_Network have been in wikipedia for years without deletion. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EconTalk has been on since 2007 without any criteria of popularity. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thistlepod has been on since 2007 without any real information about it's popularity. There are countless more. A high Podcast Alley ranking is at least something. It is also used as a reference in "This Week in Tech" podcast. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Littlecodemonkey (talk • contribs) 02:41, 19 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment You only need to voice your "Do Not Delete" opinion once. The presence of The Brewing Network may be a problem, but just because other bad articles exist is not a reason to keep this one. EconTalk is notable not for its popularity but for the notability of its host and its guests. Popularity isn't really the criteria here, notability is. Popularity is just one measure of notability -- a podcast that is highly popular will likely be the subject of independent third party coverage. A podcast such as "Pagan hooligans" has not generated sufficient independent coverage. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 12:48, 19 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
