From VfD:

A set of links and no article. Simoes

  • Delete, Incorrectly listed by the above user on July 11th, no archive seen. 2 months later, the same concern still applies. -Vina 16:57, 9 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete: Straight to links again. No content, and misnamed article. Geogre 17:16, 9 Sep 2004 (UTC)
    • With explication and content, keep. Geogre 04:31, 10 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. I know nothing of this subject, yet could improve it very simply. It's well-linked now, and a stub, but can be expanded. -- Netoholic @ 17:49, 9 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep the stub, hopefully it can get some TLC and be expanded into a decent article. Darksun 18:12, 9 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. Rather dry at the moment, but it looks like it has some potential. Article will need a better name if it's kept, though. International Telecommunications Union radio regulations, perhaps? --Ardonik.talk() 18:34, Sep 9, 2004 (UTC)
    • Radio Regulations isn't a general topic, its the actual name of the publications. -- Netoholic @ 19:20, 9 Sep 2004 (UTC)
      • Oh. I didn't know that. The article didn't really make that clear, though. --Ardonik.talk() 20:44, Sep 9, 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep with expansion. Not all link-only stubs are lost hopes. Spatch 18:56, 9 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • I like the expansion, still needs more though. -Vina 22:49, 9 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. Legitimate subject. Article just needs a little love. Gwalla | Talk 22:12, 11 Sep 2004 (UTC)

[edit] ITU Website Incompetence

You have to pay 252 CHF (Is that Chinese) to download the regulations. Please list them in this article, as I don't see how international radio regulations can be copyrighted. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.244.197.255 (talk • contribs)

That is Swiss Francs - the ITU is in Geneva. I am not sure though you should have added the FCC article, that applies only to USA regulations and the ITU is international. Please also add new comments to the end of the talk page. Also please remember to sign yourself. Dsergeant 12:22, 11 July 2007 (UTC)
The "free" document added by the anonymous editor is only a list of allocated frequencies, which is a tiny fraction of the complete Radio Regulations, hence I am removing it. A much more comprehensive manual of United States radio regulations is the Manual of Regulations and Procedures for Federal Radio Frequency Management (Redbook) which apparently contains the allocated frequencies as a single chapter. Should this manual be included as a link? Note that the ITU Radio regulations consist of four volumes, all red. During my search for a substitute I did find three useful links, which I am adding to the article. — Joe Kress 06:51, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
