Delete. Not finding anything in the way of WP:RS offering significant coverage; hence the GNG problem. /wia /tlk /cntrb 15:37, 25 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I was unable to find any coverage in reliable sources. JugniSQ (talk) 08:54, 26 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep There is a long list of UK community radio stations here, more than 50% of them have WP articles; is it the intention to delete them all? Broadcasting for nearly 10 years is notable in itself in the shifting sands of the radio scene. Deletion of the article has been assumed, there has been some presumptive editing and delinking Forest FM from other articles has already been carried out; is there an agenda here? If this was a small US station in a remote rural area this would not be am issue. Keomike (talk) 17:07, 30 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't realize that even existed but I disagree - If it was a notable station it should have much better coverage than what it has, Nope I admit I did delink Forrest FM from all articles but if it turns out this station is notable I will manually reinstate the link on every single article, There is no agenda .... I'm from the UK ?, and if this was a US station It would be here too, I don't nominate based on countries, I nominate based on notability (or the lack of!), Cheers, –Davey2010^Talk 17:47, 30 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Another measure should be interest in the article itself. Wikipedia article traffic statistics - Forest_FM has been viewed 316 times in the last 90 days. Not One Direction traffic but still 1250 disappointed searchers per annum. However consensus is the guide. Keomike (talk) 19:30, 30 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Page views mean absolutely nothing .... , There is no consensus inregards to Radio stations ... either they're notable and are kept ... Or like this station they're non-notable and usually get deleted. –Davey2010^Talk 19:43, 30 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
