Subject does not pass WP:GNG, with a total lack of WP:SIGCOV for this defunct satellite radio channel. Let'srun (talk) 21:14, 1 September 2023 (UTC)

• Delete: As I said at the deletion discussion for the similar and related MTV Satellite Radio, [http://web.archive.org/web/20051124200114/http://billboardradiomonitor.com/radiomonitor/news/format/country/article_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1001179771 this interview with XM's circa-2005 executive VP of programming] that includes a question about why XM decided to drop these two channels (which is irrelevant for determining notability, of course) might be enough to warrant a brief mention at VH1 (and source the listing[s] at XM Satellite Radio channel history#Defunct channels), but the miscapitalization of "Vh1" {{sic}} leads me to conclude that retaining this title in any form isn't ideal.

• :"Miscapitalization"? I'm old enough to remember the era (early to mid-2000s) when this was the parent network's on-screen spelling. --Slgrandson (How's my egg-throwing coleslaw?) 06:56, 2 September 2023 (UTC)
• ::The search function is treating VH1 Satellite Radio (and also Vh1 satellite radio) exactly the same as our title, so it has good functionality. StonyBrook _babble 04:17, 4 September 2023 (UTC)
• Redirect to XM Satellite Radio channel history#Defunct channels. As Wcquidditch said, this is similar to the MTV radio discussion (now closed as Redirect) since VH1 was a sister channel to MTV with similar programming. All I could find are [https://www.proquest.com/docview/391219211 passing mentions] that mention it as part of the XM lineup without going into any significant detail about them. And since the target article now includes links to both MTV and VH1, the reader will understand exactly what kind of content the satellite channels rebroadcast, without any need for this article. But it is a redirect with history and therefore should not be deleted. StonyBrook _babble 03:58, 4 September 2023 (UTC)
