One of the basic bars an article like this is going to have to meet is notability, which is defined under Wikipedia as being shown by coverage in arm's-length, reliable sources. These are usually things such as newspaper articles and magazine articles, and excludes the sort of "reprinted press releases" common to some local business rags--those sources must be independent and reliable.

My best advice is to start over, and then work at finding those sources. Find out what they talk about, and how. And then write your article based almost entirely on those sources. You can use primary sources to fill in entirely neutral and uncontroversial facts, but the use of primary sources should be a minimum.

This process is likely to be frustrating for you if you take any other path. Thanks.

I beleive television stations that broadcast original programming are assumed to be notable per our criteria? FloridaArmy (talk) 12:51, 21 July 2018 (UTC)Reply
Yes, that's true and I have accepted the article on this basis. ~Kvng (talk) 14:05, 28 August 2018 (UTC)Reply
It appears to be a major station in Jamaica, at least by book sources and government reports which I have added to support the 1993 date. Hopefully it's cleaned up from there as a stub. AngusWOOF (barksniff) 18:50, 28 August 2018 (UTC)Reply
