Article is newly created, from userspace, and moved to mainspace and DYK nom'd all in the same day. The article is long enough and has citations throughout. All appears to be neutral and the copyvio detector came back mostly clean. There's a quote taken from it, which is attributed and fine. I would like for you to reword the phrase "never put the station back on the air" though, which is found in katicasper.com/kati-history/1980s, but I don't think it's such a copyvio problem to hold up the nom. As for the hooks, ALT0 is not that interesting. A business going under due to a recession and competition... that happens all the time. ALT1 is more interesting, as a donation going unused seems more out of the ordinary. QPQ is present. – Muboshgu (talk) 22:45, 29 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
