Non-notable student radio club. No broadcast license, no transmitter, not even a closed circuit feed or an online broadcast. Currently producing podcasts only. Sources are largely connected to the subject. Hairhorn (talk) 03:40, 10 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Also seems to be largely dominated by edits of User:Kungfujam (who even gave out his cell phone in an edit to call if there were issues – if his name is James, there are a couple of James with COIs to the subject) and User:Radiofran (from the article, a Francesca Allfrey was involved in its founding).

- Delete Does not appear to be a licensed over-the-air broadcaster originating some of its own programming, so fails the defacto standard for automatic keep in afds recently. A random student activity lacking significant coverage in multiple reliable and independent sources does not satisfy notability or WP:ORG. Edison (talk) 04:43, 11 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Licencing for full online broadcast being accredited this week. Current PPL licence held under the name The Pod (currently being renewed). Member of the Student radio association. Live broadcast will available from March. King's College London is one of the top 25 Universities in the world according to the Times and it has not ever before had a radio station unlike most other universities, this is interesting information. What is the difference between the notability of King's College Radio notability and, say, Imperial College radio, CUR1350 (Cambridge radio) and UCL radio (RARE FM)? Should consider keeping in line with WikiProject London and WikiProject Radio Stations. Any suggestions of second hand sources KCL Radio could reference, or indeed any university club or society? Advice appreciated, don't want to waste your time. Kungfujam (talk) 23:27, 11 January (GMT) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.146.124.69 (talk)
- Delete Virtually all of the article appears "advert", "News release", and "Peacock". Remove these and very little of it would remain or be notable. If its circumstance is to be elevated after March, perhaps consider reinstating it later in the year, without the blatant promotion of course.Acabashi (talk) 05:58, 13 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
