[edit]- If you are connected to someone or something you have written about (a few examples are writing about yourself, your business, your band, a member of your family, your client) then you need to be aware that Wikipedia's conflict of interest guideline discourages you from writing about that subject. The main reason for that is that experience over the years indicates that editors with such a connection to a subject they are writing about are likely to find it very difficult, or even impossible, to stand back from their writing and see how it will look from the detached perspective of an outsider, so that they are likely to write in ways that look promotional to others, even if they sincerely think they are writing in a neutral way.
- Wikipedia content must be written from a neutral point of view, and promotional editing of any kind is not permitted. You may believe that programmes on your radio station are "vibrant", that they "always [secure] the best studio guests", "[bring] a wide insight", have "a great reputation", and so on and so on, but Wikipedia is not the place to tell the world what a remarkably high opinion you have of your own radio station.
- It is pretty certain that your university campus radio station does not satisfy Wikipedia's notability guidelines, in which case no article about it is likely to be accepted.
- You are, of course, very welcome to start making contributions to the encyclopaedia, from a neutral point of view, on subjects where you have no personal involvement such as might create a conflict of interest, and in ways that comply with Wikipedia policies and guidelines. However, if your only interest is in publicising your radio station then there are many web sites where you can do so, but Wikipedia isn't one of them. JBW (talk) 00:43, 23 March 2020 (UTC)

Your Sandbox
[edit]Content in your Sandbox is equivalent to an unsubmitted draft. This can be converted to a draft with an appropriate title. The draft can then be submitted to Articles for Creation, for review. In my opinion the content you have now will be rejected for an article. From the comment above: "It is pretty certain that your university campus radio station does not satisfy Wikipedia's notability guidelines, in which case no article about it is likely to be accepted." Importantly, none of the references qualify as independent and reliable. What the radio station says about itself on its own website does not count. David notMD (talk) 18:46, 23 March 2020 (UTC)
