Subject does not meet the WP:GNG primarily due to a lack of WP:SIGCOV from secondary sources. Article was kept in a 2011 AfD but notability thresholds have changed significantly since then. Let'srun ( talk) 03:19, 29 January 2024 (UTC) reply

  • Weak delete: It at least looks like there were some attempts at some semblance of local programming in the "Bay 63" K63EN days, but unless significant coverage in reliable sources to verify any of this surfaces, it won't count for much here. (But it's enough to add that "weak" qualifier; that still distinguishes this from the numerous LPTVs that never attempted any non-national programming.) The first nomination was definitely a conflict between enforcing what would now be seen as the "proper" GNG and the overpresumption of notability seen in pre-2021 versions of NMEDIA/ BROADCAST; under the looser "standards" of that era, that generally didn't lead to many deletions, but Wikipedia and its inclusion standards have evolved since then.

  • Weak keep There is indeed an article: "After 12 years in works, Channel 63 hits air tonight", San Diego Union-Tribune 10/16/92, and there is a longer article in 1993 from the Los Angeles Times that mostly covers the station's attempts to spotlight gay sex in Balboa Park. (I kid you not.) The trail does dry up hard after the 90s, but... Sammi Brie (she/her •  tc) 08:29, 1 February 2024 (UTC) reply
