An "internet radio" show (somebody hasn't checked the definition of radio) previously deleted, recreated, deleted G4, AfD'd and deleted again, undeleted for the user to add citations, AfDd no consensus, and has been languishing with a notability tag since 2008. Creator was Redbarradio (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log), I wonder if there could possibly be a COI here? Tagged as A7 but given the history I thought it was probably better to bring it here. Guy (Help!) 18:39, 2 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - non-notable pod cast. Has a dozen or so mentions on non-notable blogs (many in "comments" sections) but is altogether invisible in reliable print or web media. I also saw the various mentions made in Wired and Talkers magazine - and IMO they're not "significant coverage" enough to warrant its own article. (My rule of thumb: the more desperate a COI account is to get their blog, podcast, etc. covered by Wikipedia, the more non-notable it is. YMMV.) - LuckyLouie (talk) 19:49, 2 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep as this show is the subject of in-depth coverage in reliable third-party sources referenced in the article, including Time Out Chicago, the Columbia Chronicle, and Newcity Chicago. The article needs some cleanup and the refs are bare urls but it crosses the notability threshold. - Dravecky (talk) 04:18, 3 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Seems like a local show with citations in the local press. I see nothing making this encyclopedic on the international level.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 15:08, 3 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
