KSLU → KSLU (radio station) – Not clearly the primary topic over KSLU (Saint Louis University) * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 23:52, 23 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Support the other has 72 views compared with only 32[[1]] for this one. Crouch, Swale (talk) 16:23, 24 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Support as KSLU (FM) This is a kinda nasty incomplete disambiguation case. The KSLU at Saint Louis University is also a radio station, even if it is online. For this very reason, I moved the then-page WTBU (radio station) to WTBU (Boston University) in 2020; WTBU is a disambiguation, as there is a licensed WTBU (FM). See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/WTBU (radio station). Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 04:34, 29 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Support move to KSLU (FM): A primary topic-titled article that gets less views than a disambiguated-titled article (and neither are that high to start with) would indicate that this isn't necessarily the primary topic, if not that there isn't one. (Note that while the Louisiana station is the FCC-licensed one, the St. Louis entity appears to have more history, and seems to be at the larger of the two universities.) Since both KSLUs are radio stations in some form (the Louisiana one an FCC-licensed FM station; the St. Louis one a webcast that historically was a carrier current operation), more specific disambiguation is required.

Starting review. Updates to follow. Ktin (talk) 02:41, 5 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

General: Article is new enough and long enough
New enough: Long enough:

Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Adequate sourcing: Neutral: Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Cited: Interesting:

QPQ: Done.

Overall: Meets eligibility requirements. For some reason DYK check was throwing 5x expansion having started back in 2008. However, a simple manual check showed that expansion started when the article was at 278 characters and is right now somewhere in the 2.2K ballpark. So, no concerns there. The hook is sourced to an offline source. Will AGF on that one. However, was able to find other sources that showed that Roberts worked with KSLU when at the university, so no concerns there. Hook is interesting as well. QPQ done. No concerns with Earwig. Nice expansion work! This one is good to go. Ktin (talk) 04:12, 5 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
