Not a legally licensed radio station (probably Part 15). Fails to meet WP:NMEDIA, WP:BROADCAST, and WP:GNG. The "WZKW" callsign is not currently assigned to any radio or television station. Neutralhomer • Talk • 00:41 on March 12, 2019 (UTC)

Delete: No real proof station exists. There is no "WZKW" or "WZKW-LP" licensed and FCCdata.org does not yield any results for "DWZKW" or "DWZKW-LP". Claimed ERP exceeds that of a legal Part 15 FM station. It could be a pirate station, but there are no reliable sources that would support notability as a pirate station. The only online mentions of this station are outdated affiliate lists, which could indicate that it once existed, but as a pirate station or Part 15 station, as no such station was ever actually licensed. As such, the station does not meet any of the requirements for WP:BROADCAST.--Tdl1060 (talk) 02:55, 12 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: There's no presumption of notability for unlicensed stations, and there just isn't much in the way of sources to meet the general notability guideline. (The article claims the station has been around since 2004; while that's a decent run for an unlicensed station, and an established broadcast history is suggested as a path to notability in WP:BCAST, that alone isn't enough, especially without sources) --WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 23:31, 17 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
