I wanted to let you know that I just tagged
Boervolk Radio for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
Wikipedia is an encyclopedia-- subjects must meet
notability guidelines with
reliable sources providing
verifiable information. That generally means someone unconnected with the subject needs to have written about the subject. Searching Google is the best place to start. Sometimes articles are deleted because they contain content copyrighted elsewhere. Such content can be used as a source of information, but the content here must be completely rewritten from scratch. Any deficiencies with notability, sourcing, or things to avoid should be remedied before reposting as they can lead to repeated deletions. If you wish to make test edits or work on the article before creating it, you can create a test page at
User:Johannjacobs/sandbox and consider using the
Article Wizard to guide you through the creation process
Please see the following links that will be helpful in editing.
My feeling is this can be sourced. Please find sources that talk about the subject per se, not so much the history of those involved in it. Good luck and happy editing.

Thanks, I have added additional citations of unconnected sources, but also working on sources from printed material. Thanks for the advice and guidance.
