Article has been unsourced since 2006. Notability of topic is in question. Coin945 (talk) 05:32, 13 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Speedy keep, the nominator does not propose a valid WP:DEL-REASON. The nominator does not say which notability guideline this article fails to meet. SailingInABathTub (talk) 10:40, 13 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete This is a dictionary definition. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia not a dictionary.John Pack Lambert (talk) 19:55, 13 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Radio masts and towers. There is no inherent reason to have this as a seperate article. It is the same concept, and Wikipedia is an encyclopedia not a dictionary so we do not need seperate articles for every term, just for every thing or idea, and often we define things and ideas broadly. That article is already written in a way to basically cover this topic as well as several related ones.John Pack Lambert (talk) 13:48, 14 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge to Radio masts and towers. I spent about an hour trying to scour the web for any mention of "tower arrays" being used to describe the subject of this article, and couldn't come up with anything. I also checked the sources for articles linked to from this one as examples of tower arrays; none of them seemed to mention them being constructed as part of a "tower array". Obviously, it's a "thing" to arrange radio towers in a phased array, but as of now, I don't have the subfield expertise to know which texts to look in to back this up enough for a standalone article. I don't doubt that one could be written to exist at this title, but for now, I think it ought to be merged into a parent article. jp×g 05:50, 15 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
