WMHO

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Station is a Part 15, unlicensed radio station which does not enjoy the notability that FM, AM or Low Power stations do. Station is not licensed with the FCC and the WMHO callsign is not licensed to any station. The page has no references to back up any of the information posted on the page, which in and of itself fails WP:V. The page also fails WP:N.

Merge and redirect to Marysville, Ohio#Media, possibly as a paragraph or subsection about Gray Fox/Gene Kirby, using that which can be properly sourced. Seems to be a micropower station operated by a small organization (Gray Fox) run by an established local radio personality that has a studio and also provides the programming for licensed stations WDEQ-FM (Riverside High School (De Graff, Ohio)) and WRPO-LP (Village of Russells Point, Ohio). But Wikipedia notability isn't inherited, of course. Not sure this qualifies for a separate article under WP:LOCAL, but any broadcaster that has sustained more than a transient presence is probably recognizable locally and should be noted as a factor in the media section of a community article. I would have liked to say Keep, but it needs more evidence of independent coverage from WP:RS. --Closeapple (talk) 18:24, 24 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete No independent and reliable sources found, so notability not demonstrated. Not licensed, so no presumption of notability usually granted to licensed broadcasters which originate locally a portion of their broadcasting. I own such a 100 mw Part 15 transmitter, and it only gets out about as far as I could shout. Edison (talk) 20:03, 24 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: I can't find significant coverage for this radio station. Joe Chill (talk) 01:15, 26 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.

Delete per ~~WP:PART15~~ utter lack of reliable sources. Emily Jensen (talk) 02:17, 1 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Weak Delete or Cleanup This article could be a keep with a few more sources, I don't think the micropower issue is a factor. I'd be happy to help with the cleanup, but it looks like consensus is there to delete here. Doc Quintana (talk) 12:50, 1 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
