• Delete per WP:MUSIC, sigh. Sandstein 13:18, 5 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Actually, as a podcast, WP:MUSIC is not the criteria to use; WP:WEB is. —C.Fred (talk) 01:52, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as above and because author has removed delete tag--Porturology 17:22, 5 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per nom. (AfD tag restored to article and message sent to deleting editor's talk page.) —C.Fred (talk) 17:31, 5 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as not notable. You might keep it on your watchlist, because I just restored the AfD tag again. NickelShoe 19:06, 5 March 2006 (UTC)

• Plea for keeping article*

-The reviews on iTunes give the Podcast 5 out of 5 stars

-Although not directly affiliated with View Askew, Kevin Smith has acknowledged, approved, talked about, and appeared on Radio Askew

-This is by far the biggest, most devoted View Askew fan project ever

-I brought the deletion of this Wiki up on the official View Askew Message board [1] and several other fans were willing to search for 'Radio Askew' on Google for no other reason than to keep this Wiki alive.

-The fanbase for this Podcast is huge, because they share the View Askew fanbase, and the number of listeners increases nearly every single week —The preceding unsigned comment was added by TylerMertens (talk • contribs) 19:13, 5 March 2006 (UTC).

• Comment: I added the above attribution but made no other edits to the above "plea". —C.Fred (talk) 01:46, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

• Comment. The reviews on the iTunes Music Store don't count for anything, since they're user reviews...except for the fact that it's on iTMS! Does this make it "distributed by an outside source", and thus notable per WP:WEB? —C.Fred (talk) 02:33, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Notable under criteria #3 of WP:WEB, because it is distributed by the iTunes Music Store. (As soon as I can figure out how to link in, I'll add this as an external links.) Secondarily notable because it carried an audio scene from Clerks II: this escalates it, IMHO, from being just another fan blog to something with official standing. —C.Fred (talk) 03:26, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per C.Fred, and thanks doing some work! NickelShoe 04:03, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per C.Fred, assuming this user knows what he/she is talking about. Kappa 09:00, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
