Doesn't meet WP:NOTABILITY. Using AfD rather than prod in case I've missed info as sources will tend not to be in English. No article in other language Wikipedias. Boleyn (talk) 09:14, 26 February 2017 (UTC)

• Redirect to Pacific_Broadcasting_Systems#Yes_FM. This is plainly verifiable as existing, but what I can't locate is proper clarification of whether the station originates at least some of its own local programming (one of the requirements in WP:NMEDIA for a radio station to pass notability), or whether it exists solely as a repeater of another station programmed in a different market. If it could be properly sourced as an originating station, then it would be eligible for a standalone article, but if it's just a rebroadcaster then it gets a redirect to its programming source and not a standalone article — and if we can't properly source which of those it is, then it's "rebroadcaster until proven otherwise", not "originating station until proven otherwise", because reliable sourcing is the be-all and end-all of Wikipedia at all times regardless of what unsourced evidence of notability is being claimed.
