Hundreds of astronomy podcasts, editing Universe Today, reaching tens of thousands of listeners... I want my $35 back, Wikipedia. For shame.

I am inclined to agree that the subject should have an article, but the
deletion discussion could not justify keeping the content because all topics must be
verified to meet the
notability requirements. If anyone has
reliable sources not mentioned in the discussion, please post information about them here, and perhaps the article could be recreated (but new sources would be needed). By the way, if anyone reads the deletion discussion, ignore the "Vanity and self promotion" comment made by a misguided passerby who clearly did not consider the actual article or its subject. The issue that led to deletion was the failure to satisfy the above notability requirements.

Johnuniq hit it. For the record, prior AFDs are generally held to prohibit re-creation unless there is a change in circumstances -or- information not considered in the AFD comes to light that addresses the concerns raised therein. So, if anyone has information that shows the subject meets the
notability guidelines that was not considered in the AFD, that may be grounds for restoring the article. Regards,
