WECU-TV was an independent television station owned by the State of NC since the early 1970s and was no longer a part of the ECU community from early 1970s through 2014. It was closed by the State of NC in 2014. 2603:6081:1600:2A8:CC04:25E2:DBE3:B46A (talk) 06:45, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There are sources and we could find some.

I think this might work. For this reason, I'm Undecided. mer764KCTV5 (He/Him | t • c) mer764KCTV5 (He/Him | t • c) 07:20, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect as proposed What a confusingly worded article. Was "WECU-TV" just airtime bought on the UNC-TV station? A cable channel? It certainly was not a full-fledged broadcast TV station that merits an article. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 20:48, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I've been through this article about six times and all I could really pull out is that it was a PEG channel or possibly a closed circuit channel using WUNK-TV's spectrum, but it could also be completely invented by someone who futzes around on Fandom/Logopedia. With none of the sources active or going to 'page not found' errors, I'm directing myself towards the latter. Nate • (chatter) 23:49, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Merge with East Carolina University#Student life: Subject does not meet the WP:GNG due to a lack of WP:SIGCOV. A partial merge to the target article suggested by the nominator is a suitable WP:ATD. Let'srun (talk) 17:51, 29 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
