Delete.The only sources cited in this article are pages from the radio station's own website ... but the site linked is a domain for sale and has no content about this radio station. Even if the radio station actually had its website at the link, the article would still be overly promotional, as it makes claims about how popular the radio station is among youth without citing any sources other than the station's own website. That said, terrestrial radio stations are generally notable as indicated at WP:NRADIO, so I would be willing to change my mind if this article had proper sources to verify the station's broadcasting activity. -- Metropolitan90 (talk) 17:46, 7 June 2020 (UTC)- I'm changing to neutral for the time being, pending revision of the page to correspond to what Raymie has written below. --

- @ Metropolitan90: I just moved the article to Karachi FM and revised the page. There are next to no sources on station history or the change from Radioactive to Karachi FM. They might exist in Urdu, but that does me no good. Raymie ( t • c) 00:44, 8 June 2020 (UTC)

- @ Metropolitan90: Appears to now go by Karachi FM (their listed website redirects to this FB page). Radio in Pakistan is regulated by the Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority and it is listed on the list of commercial FM licences. Keep and move to Karachi FM to cover current imaging and name. Raymie ( t • c) 23:28, 7 June 2020 (UTC)
- Keep: Per Raymie. As Radioactive FM 96, it's mentioned in an article about Radio in Karachi, one of its jocks was nominated in an award, and it was talked about in a section of a magazine. Therefore, with the sources indicated above, the article is good enough to pass WP:BCAST. ASTIG😎 ( ICE T • ICE CUBE) 08:00, 8 June 2020 (UTC)
