Article consists entirely of one infobox, one reference, and a one-paragraph lead (which makes up the entire content). Not notable at all. Alex|The|Whovian? 00:00, 30 January 2017 (UTC) Withdrawn by nominator Retracting my nomination for deletion. It's obvious that the article is being expanded upon, which is great. (However, it really ought to be done in the draft namespace.) The article appeared as such when I nominated it for deletion, which was my reasoning. Alex|The|Whovian? 05:55, 31 January 2017 (UTC)

- Keep. This show ran on MTV for years and the usual searches turn up substantial coverage in reliable sources, including for example this book about the history if MTV; a substantial article in a 1985 Billboard; this university press book discussing one episode's important impact on the Austin music scene of the mid 1980s; a 1985 LA Times article that calls it "the best program about pop music that we have". Passes GNG and suitable for improvement, not deletion. --Arxiloxos (talk) 07:21, 30 January 2017 (UTC)
- If it shouldn't be deleted, it should be moved to the draft space. There is nowhere near enough content to declare it a valid article. It's existed for 8 years and has a total of 27 edits to the article - it's obviously not going to be expanded any further. Alex|The|Whovian? 07:28, 30 January 2017 (UTC)
- Keep: I see that the article is being improved, and it now has at least enough substance and cited references to fully establish notability. Keep on improving! Lwarrenwiki (talk) 18:30, 30 January 2017 (UTC)
- Keep - Article content does not determine notability. Has been greatly improved and you can add this source to the list of coverage as well. TimothyJosephWood 18:54, 30 January 2017 (UTC)
