*'''Speedy keep'''. Did you even [http://www.google.com/search?&q=%22Radio%20source%22%20-Wikipedia look]? How about [http://www.nrao.edu/pr/2005/newsource/ this one]? —[[User_talk:Bradv|<span style="color:Orange;">BradV</span>]] 03:57, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

*'''rename''' to [[astronomical radio source]] <small>—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/70.51.9.57|70.51.9.57]] ([[User talk:70.51.9.57|talk]]) 05:17, 2 April 2008 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

*'''Keep'''an d either redirect to the good existing article on the subject [[radio astronomy]] or improve to nan adequate introduction, like the equivalent in deWP. This was a careless nomination, made in apparent lack of knowledge of the general subject, a demonstrated lack of willingness to even look at google, and a odd lack of understanding that there might be relevant articles on Wikipedia. . I have removed some irrelevant vandalism from the article. But this is a very unsophisticated article that needs major expansion.

*'''Strong keep'''&mdash;Important astronomy concept. The [http://www.britannica.com/bps/topic/488960/radio-source Encyclopedia Britannica] has an article on them, and so should we. [[User:Spacepotato|Spacepotato]] ([[User talk:Spacepotato|talk]]) 07:29, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

*'''Strong keep''' The article needs some development but to suggest that it fails on [[WP:RS]] is, well, surprising; Bradv has highlighted that aspect with some examples. On what basis was the claim of original research made? Surely not just on the absence of references: that would be irresponsible. I don't believe this article should have been brought to AfD. --- [[User:Taroaldo|Taroaldo]] ([[User talk:Taroaldo|talk]]) 07:36, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
