I'm writing regarding the article 87.9 MHz, after reading it I'm have trouble understanding how this frequency is in line with our notability guidelines, so I'm listing it at Articles for deletion, I hope you can give us your opinions there.

I voted to merge the contents of the article with the article on the RF spectrum. I have to agree that it's madness to have one article for every single frequency in a given part of radio spectrum. If you have an article on 87.9, that opens the door for someone to make an article for every 200 kc thereafter through 107.9, then someone in the UK might make 88.0, 88.2, blah blah. No need for that. All relevant data should probably be merged into the RF spectrum article. Assuming that's what the consensus ends up being, I'll take care of merging it once the discussion ends in a few days. --Analogdemon (talk) 23:09, 23 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2006-03-23T23:09:00.000Z","author":"Analogdemon","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Analogdemon-2006-03-23T23:09:00.000Z-EivindFOyangen-2006-03-23T22:37:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Looks like the Rhode Island LP stations remain (which they should) and that town in Florida, you are correct, the -LP call sign should remain and in most cases the call sign should remain as it is, not knocked down to the 4 letter abbrev.

Why are you insisting on reporting shortwave frequencies in megahertz and then removing "useless zeroes"? First of all, the zeroes are not useless, see significant figures to understand why. Second of all, shortwave frequencies are often reported in either kHz or MHz, and when reporting in MHz, the nearly universal practice is to include 3 significant figures after the decimal point. WBCQ's own web pages report them both ways, and includes the zeroes that you deem "useless" when using MHz. See, e.g., wbcq.com home page: "Effective Friday, November 9, 2007, WBCQ's 18.910 MHz service has changed frequencies to 17.495 MHz." "WBCQ broadcasts 50,000 watts on each of its four international shortwave transmitters on 5.110, 7.415, 9.330 and 18.910 MHz."

Re: User_talk:DHowell#Useless 0s

As you say you are familiar with significant figures as used in physics, then you should also be aware that a frequency measurement in kHz or MHz (by the way, I don't think I've seen any publications printed later than 1979 that use "kc." and "Mc.") is a physical quantity. Radio is indeed physics, not math. We don't need to say "18.91000" because shortwave stations are generally 5 kHz apart, so any precision beyond that would be useless and redundant. The issue is not about confusion, but about having a consistent style in Wikipedia. To further my argument, I cite the Wikipedia Manual of Style on decimal points, which says: "The number of decimal places should be consistent within a list or context (The response rates were 41.0 and 47.4 percent, respectively, not The response rates were 41 and 47.4 percent, respectively), except in the unusual instances where the items were measured with unequal precision." As I have no desire to get involved in a lame edit war over this, I will ask for a consensus at WikiProject Radio Stations and WikiProject Amateur radio.

I fail to see why you continue to revert this page despite my explanation as to my edits. It was determined MONTHS ago at WP:WPRS (a wikiproject you don't belong to, but might like to join) that this was an appropriate format for these lists. 49 lists do not include low-power stations, and there is no reason for the 50th one to do so. Your continued WP:OWNing of this list only makes you look bad. The LPFM stations are included in the appropriate categories and the appropriate templates. Why you are so determined for this list to not match any of the others baffles me.

A tag has been placed on WRYP, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing no content to the reader. Please note that external links, "See also" section, book reference, category tag, template tag, interwiki link, rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article don't count as content. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}} to the page and state your intention on the article's talk page.

I have spoken recently with Allan Weiner, the owner of WBCQ, WXCQ and WBCQ-FM, as well as several people who live nearby. From this I determined:

• WBCQ-FM signed on several weeks ago and on Thursday, August 8, began a new LMA country music format.

• 780 terminated its relationship with Channel X Radio several months ago and is pending a new format/LMA using calls WXCQ. The new client may change the calls but for now it's WXCQ.

• The FCC database is certainly not up to date with respect to these registrations!!

I recommend reverting or changing your recent edits.

I had an issue with the notability because 'a list of radio stations' is nothing particular or encyclopedic. I see there is a bit more information now, so if it keeps going this way, then everything is fine :) The article was quite confusing then (The confuion's gone now, but I'd like to see some more improvements though, especially some wikification) especially regarding this spanish radio station airing games and not being part of a network. Q1: what games? Q2: Why are we talking about a radio station that is not part of a network on a particular network's article? I generally suggest adding information about their programs, the history of the network, any other notable thing about this network, and some good wikification.

Articles tagged for deletion and rescue Category Articles tagged for deletion and rescue not found Hi, Stereorock, welcome to the Article Rescue Squadron! We are a growing community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to identifying and rescuing articles that have been tagged for deletion. Every day hundreds of articles are deleted, many rightfully so. But many concern notable subjects and are poorly written, ergo fixable and should not be deleted. We try to help these articles quickly improve and address the concerns of why they are proposed for deletion. This covers a lot of ground and your help is appreciated! Some points that may be helpful: Our main aim is to help improve articles, so if someone seeks help, please try to assist if you are able. Likewise feel free to ask for help, advice and clarification. Many times we are asked to help rescue articles by people new to our notability and sourcing policies. If the article is not fixable we can help explain why and offer alternatives. Many of these editors are also new to Wikipedia so may see deleting "their" article as "bitey". Encourage civility and maybe even {{welcome}} them if they have only been templated with deletion messages. The Articles for deletion (AfD) discussion is where the concerns regarding each article are brought up and addressed. To be an effective member of the project you need to know how AfD works as well as how to improve articles. Introduction to deletion process gives a good overview and some good advice for newcomers to deletion. Our primary work is improving articles tagged for rescue. On this template you can see a drop-down list of current articles tagged. You can install it on your own page by putting {{ARS/Tagged}}. A more dynamic list with article links and description is on our current articles page. It is highly recommended you watchlist it. If you have another language besides English, please consider adding yourself to the list of translators available. Articles and sources that use non-English languages often need translation for those of us who cannot translate for ourselves. Many important discussions take place on the project's main discussion page; it is recommended that you watchlist it. If you have any questions, feel free to ask on the talk page, and we will be happy to help you. And once again - Welcome!

Rich Farmbrough, 12:41, 28 December 2009 (UTC).[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2009-12-28T12:41:00.000Z","author":"Rich Farmbrough","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Rich_Farmbrough-2009-12-28T12:41:00.000Z-Dates","replies":["c-Stereorock-2009-12-28T12:52:00.000Z-Rich_Farmbrough-2009-12-28T12:41:00.000Z","c-Rich_Farmbrough-2009-12-28T13:05:00.000Z-Rich_Farmbrough-2009-12-28T12:41:00.000Z"],"displayName":"Rich"}}-->

If it's when it happened, it's essentially its birth. Again, this goes to the Who, What, Where, When, Why & How. When is being sacrificed but, for example, Where isn't. They both should be allowed.Stereorock (talk) 12:52, 28 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2009-12-28T12:52:00.000Z","author":"Stereorock","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Stereorock-2009-12-28T12:52:00.000Z-Rich_Farmbrough-2009-12-28T12:41:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Places are more important, provided they are specific enough. So for example on that page we would link Dallas but not Texas - because someone trying to understand KSEX-LP is more likely to find useful information in the Dallas page (about demographics, topography etc). Similarly if you look at June 12 there is no information relating to KSEX-LP - nor should there be. The fact that KSEX-Lp was awarded a permit on June 12 of some random year does not belong on that page, has nothing to do with the Peasants Revolt arriving at Blackheath, and so forth. You will find guidance at WP:MOSNUM and WP:CONTEXT.

As for discussion, the matter has been under discussion for maybe five years, culminating in a poll Wikipedia:Date_formatting_and_linking_poll#Month-day_linking.

Re-reading I see that it was the founding date rather than when a permit was awarded. But even so there is no value in the link. What do you gain by clicking on it? Rich Farmbrough, 13:11, 28 December 2009 (UTC).[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2009-12-28T13:11:00.000Z","author":"Rich Farmbrough","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Rich_Farmbrough-2009-12-28T13:11:00.000Z-Rich_Farmbrough-2009-12-28T13:05:00.000Z","replies":[],"displayName":"Rich"}}-->

If I am so inclined, I can look up other information about June 12. While it's true I can also enter the date in the find field box, some other people may not know June 12 even has a page. When I started here 4 years ago I didn't know dates would have their own pages or years. Now there are year pages and "Year in...(category) pages too." So, KSEX-LP's sign-on date may be included in 1997 in television. As for no value being in the link, I think that depends on who is clicking the link. Someone in Dallas or elsewhere may not know of the Peasants' Revolt nor, up to that point, care.

As for places, I've seen that the "standard" (again, I don't know if there is one nor where to go to find the places equivalent of the dates group) is to link BOTH the community and larger jurisdiction (states, provinces, counties, etc.) separately (e.g.: Dallas, Texas). So someone can click on Dallas OR Texas and find out information on either instead of just being Dallas, Texas. To me the dates are as important as places because it helps me think of what the world was like when an even happened. The history of a station that started September 9, 2001 or July 18, 1969 would be different that one started 4 days after, for example. What did its crew have to do in the first few days of broadcasting when the event happened or did they decide to postpone their launch? Or, what about a group of ex-G.I.s who bought a station and flipped its format on V.J. Day? The very date itself is then relevant to the history of the station. Another example would be someone thinking to themselves "CZAR in Ottawa started on July 1? What's July 1? *click* Oh, it's Canada Day!" The beauty of Wikipedia, to me, seems not to be that it's a defacto depository of all the world's information but that other information can be found out that somebody may not have thought to even look up before. It's all interwoven like a web. It looked like the vote has already been decided and I don't know if it's too late to add my 2 cents.

Per your revert here, you should be aware that dates (including DOBs) are no longer linked per MOS:UNLINKYEARS. There is no relevance to linking to August 8 when that page simply says that Joe Tex (or whomever) was born on that date and nothing more. That info is already in the article and doesn't need to be explained further. Additionally, dates should be properly spaced and include an en dash (per MOS:DOB) Thanks.

Seriously? This is the game you choose to play here? We don't get to pick and choose what guidelines and policies we want to follow. There are plenty I don't like but guess what? Still follow and even enforce 'em. Since this appears to be your crusade - have at it. A bot will delink the dates eventually anyway but hey, you won the battle and that's important.

It's not a game. A game is when some group comes out of nowhere and decides what they want is going to be the only way ANYBODY can do things. One day, out of nowhere these bots & people started delinking dates. So I chose to fight. Dates had been linked since I started here & there has never been a good reason to stop the practice presented to me or anybody else that I was able to find. Since it seemed to be an arbitrary practice, why go along with it. See, that's the beauty: you CAN pick & choose which ones to go along with. You go along with the right ones & fight the wrong ones. If there are practices you don't like but go along with, then fight! Any words misusing an apostrophe, I fix.

I was able to find the group which apparently decided this & registered my disagreement with their decision & how it wasn't brought up to a vote of EVERY USER. Even then, there will be new users.

Yes, the date-autoformatting. But it goes further than that. The past year in particular has seen a tightening of the guidelines on overlinking more broadly, to protect the linking system from the widespread dilution that was occurring. Readers are clearly more likely to click on an item if the text is not densely linked with useless links. I notice "radio" and "American" are typically linked in a few articles in your contribs list I looked at. These clearly should not be linked. Please see WP:LINK. Another issue is the bunching up of two or three geographical links, when just one (the most specific), is much more effective. Chicago, Illinois, not Chicago, Illinois. Please ask if you have more queries. Tony (talk) 04:26, 30 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-01-30T04:26:00.000Z","author":"Tony1","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Tony1-2010-01-30T04:26:00.000Z-Tony1-2010-01-30T02:23:00.000Z","replies":["c-Tony1-2010-01-30T04:34:00.000Z-Tony1-2010-01-30T04:26:00.000Z"],"displayName":"Tony"}}-->

The overarching goal is to focus readers' attention on smaller bits of blue (otherwise the dilution effect weakens the wikilinking system). So, as above, bluing only "Chicago" is preferred to bluing both city and state (and country) name. If readers were going to click on anything, it would be the most specific; the Chicago article immediately presents links to state and country, anyway (the "chain" link effect).

There is no need to shout at me in your edit summary. If you have something to say, it's best to use a talk page. Please note that WP:WPRS is not a Wikipedia policy. It is a WikiProject. It can make recommmendations, and set guidelines if there is consensus among a wider audience, but it is not a policy. In the future, please discuss changes like that on a talkpage instead of trying to discuss through edit summaries. I may not understand radio stations, but I do understand the Phillies, and I do understand that the callsign is denoted as it was in the source, so all I was doing was following a reliable source as dictated by WP:RS, an actual policy.

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time.

The article WWNH has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

I was unable to find any sources verifying the existence or notability of this radio station; even the cited official web site is a dead link.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

• Yes, there were three changes:

• WP:MOSDASH concerns the use and placement of endashes (as ought to be used in the article) as opposed to hyphens and emdashes. FYI, the hyphen is often misused instead of the endash. If you are interested in their differences or ensuring their correct placement, you may wish to install this excellent tool, which takes the thinking out of dash usage.
• WP:MOSLINK referred to the linkage of the common term radio station. I guess one could argue that this link is highly relevant, but really one must be able to expect the reader's understanding of the subject will be deepened by clicking through to the target. However, it is one term I see overexploited. Broadcasting in the United States would be an improvement, either as [[Broadcasting in the United States|American radio station]], or unpiped in the 'See also' section.
• As Tony mentions below, use of the piped link [[1956 in radio|1956]] is deceptive, certainly in the context it was used in the article. There would not be a problem if the unpiped link was used, either adjacent to the station's birthdate or as a 'See also'.

• Incidentally, I would just say that the article has been on my watchlist for years. I cannot recall why I put it there, but suspect that I felt at the time there were issues. Heck, I may even have put it up for AfD... Anyway, it's been nice talking with you. --Ohconfucius ^¡digame! 11:49, 25 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2011-02-25T11:49:00.000Z","author":"Ohconfucius","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Ohconfucius-2011-02-25T11:49:00.000Z-Ohconfucius-2011-02-24T14:50:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

This edit: I query the benefit to the navigation system of covering up 1956 in radio by the pipe "1956". Isn't there a better way of showing readers this link-target, explicitly? (2) Is there something useful in radio station that I'm missing? Surely there's a more specific link-target. (3) You reverted corrections of hyphens into en dashes, which are required by the style guide. I see that you did not insert an edit-summary, which is not good form when reverting.

A tag has been placed on JOGV-FM requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you.

This is an automated message from MadmanBot. I have performed a search with the contents of WELZ (AM), and it appears to be very similar to another Wikipedia page: Welz. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally trying to rename an article, please see Help:Moving a page for instructions on how to do this without copying and pasting. If you are trying to move or copy content from one article to a different one, please see Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia and be sure you have acknowledged the duplication of material in an edit summary to preserve attribution history.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article.

Hello, I notice that you recently created a new page, WELZ (AM). First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welz. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welz - you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think that the article you created should remain separate, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions.

I'd ordinarily agree with you on AM coming before FM (although, interestingly, I can't find any guideline in that regard anywhere on the WP:WPRS homepage). However, practically every single other market navbox is set up with FM as group 1, AM as group 2, and the call signs as group 3. It just wouldn't make sense for this one navbox to be different from the rest. If you think it's worthwhile, determing a standard format would certainly be interesting topic for the project talk page, as the other navboxes would need to be reformatted as well if there was to be a change.

These aticles are for international events and should therefore use international date format. The preponderence of minor US entries does not justify the use US date format. The use of – to separate the date from the event is standard in Year articles.

The proliferation of "minor" (i.e. not internationally notable) US entries is probably due to the fact that when these articles (the early Years in radio articles anyway) were begun they were concerned solely with US radio. THis has been corrected to some extent by the inlcusion of non-US events, though some of those are also somewhat minor. As with the parent Year articles where there was, and still is, a US bias this has been ameliorated by the Year in Country articles. As there is so much US specific material the logical solution would be to have separate Year in US Radio articles.

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you recently tried to give WBFJ a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into WBFJ (AM). This is known as a "cut and paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page. This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut and paste move repair holding pen.

It does not state that short sections that contain information are a violation. It was not meant to justify removal of information on programs. Please state your objection to the existence of the section of WECK that you have repeatedly removed on the talk page of the article.1archie99 (talk) 19:41, 17 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2013-04-17T19:41:00.000Z","author":"1archie99","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-1archie99-2013-04-17T19:41:00.000Z-I_believe_that_you_are_incorrectly_justifying_you_reversions.","replies":[]}}-->

I have nominated 3 of these articles for deletion. I can see what you are trying to do. However, I think that perhaps you ought to keep the articles in your user space until such time as they are reasonably complete. To put it another way, I don't believe the only radio stations using this frequency are 2 stations in Japan. I further not above that similar articles were deleted as not being in line with the deletion policy. I have not nominated the rest for deletion, because I don't have time and thought it would be a good idea if you were given the chance to explain yourself. I have to say that writing this many articles knowing that they are not notable could be seen as being disruptive.

They serve the following functions:

In the case of the vertical separator, the space (or spaces, when indented with a Navbox subgroup), preceding the separator mark the logical structure of the template. It is very helpful, and reduces coding erors in any form of programming, if the visual structure of a program/template matches its logical structure. The single space following the separator helps avoid confusion – especially for the visually impaired – with a lower-case "L" or an upper-case "i", where it might otherwise be read as part of the folloowing word. This is just good programming practice. Similarly, the space after the initial asterisk makes the line much easier to read.

Overall, the make the template easier to read and to edit, and help avoid errors. That's why they're not "useless".

Hello Stereorock. It has been over six months since you last edited your WP:AFC draft article submission, entitled "WXMN".

Beautiful! I haven't heard of NewsBank so I'm going to check that out. I'm thinking of looking at David Eduardo's site which has old Broadcasting Yearbooks in PDF that we've used for stations going back before 1979.

I am lucky enough to frequently visit a library that has that, but they told me they don't have the budget to keep it. I can go to another library that has it, but it's farther away.

User:Neutralhomer seems to have a real problem with any history being in the article at all. It is true there was some information that, as worded, violated NPOV, so I took that out, but everything else went back. The edit summary claimed the information didn't match the sources, but I want to know where he got the sources. He can't say that if he actually looks, but I don't know if he can.

I finally found the text from the most recent Winston-Salem Journal article about WTOB.

And he's overly enthusiastic about WSMX too. He claims the information is not in the sources, but I ask the question: Did he go to the basement of the Winston-Salem library and look at those sources? He did not. If he had he would have seen what was there.

You are readding sources added a very over-zealous anon, so forgive me if I don't believe the text-only sources are correct. The linked sourced weren't or only had vague mentions of WTOB or WSMX, not the multiple mentions as the anon used it for. Again, forgive me if I don't believe those are correct either.

I did leave the most correct information on both pages as I did see both in updating the two pages. Also, the WSMX's slogan is not used on the air (by DJ or in bumpers). Now, granted this could be considered OR, but after listening to the station for some 3 hours last night and a couple today (non-stop), I never heard the slogan used once. To be honest, I never heard much except for some commercials and the top-of-the-hour ID last night and a very unexperienced DJ today.

I take radio station histories quite seriously, along with any other forms of history, and when there are problems, it all needs to be fixed. - Neutralhomer • Talk • 22:06, 6 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2014-06-06T22:06:00.000Z","author":"Neutralhomer","type":"comment","level":6,"id":"c-Neutralhomer-2014-06-06T22:06:00.000Z-Vchimpanzee-2014-06-06T19:35:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

@Stereorock: With Vchimpanzee continuing to re-add poorly sourced and dubious information along with information is just isn't notable, I have abandoned the WTOB and WSMX articles. I apologize, as I said I would watchlist them, but I can't do my job well when a seasoned editor is readding information that isn't helping the article one bit.

I don't know where Neutralhomer is getting "poorly sourced" and "dubious". And I don't know what makes the information non-notable as long as it appears in a proper source.

WMYB-AM, the station at 1450 AM, is certainly entitled to be there. Whether it should be called WRNN (AM) can be debated. Some say the history goes with the frequency, although if the station signed off and the frequency was not used for several years, maybe that's not the case. I felt the obvious solution was to put the early history of WMYB in the WRNN article under "History of 1450 AM" while WKZQ and WTGR went under "History of 1520 AM".

Maybe I wasn't clear. You want to create an article about WMYB, the radio station that existed until the mid-1980s. Just click on that link on the disambiguation page and do what you want.

Hello Stereorock. It has been over six months since you last edited your WP:AFC draft article submission, entitled "WXMN".

The page will shortly be deleted. If you plan on editing the page to address the issues raised when it was declined and resubmit it, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}} or {{db-g13}} code. Please note that Articles for Creation is not for indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you want to retrieve it, copy this code: {{subst:Refund/G13|Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/WXMN}}, paste it in the edit box at this link, click "Save page", and an administrator will in most cases undelete the submission.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. st170e^talk 16:09, 22 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2014-10-22T16:09:00.000Z","author":"St170e","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-St170e-2014-10-22T16:09:00.000Z-Your_draft_article,_Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation\/WXMN_2","replies":[]}}-->

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by APerson was:

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

• If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:WXMN and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.

Hey, I was doing something recently and noticed you flipped the AM and FM order of Template:Mexico State Radio. All of the Mexico radio boxes in that style (exceptions: a bunch of border areas, Mexico City, anything in Tamaulipas) have FM first and then AM. I understand your reasoning but opted to put FM back on top.

The main reason is that upwards of 70% of Mexican radio stations are FMs. The government's AM-FM migration scheme has left very few AMs that are standalone (without an FM partner), and indeed, not many AMs overall. Outside of big cities (where there wasn't room), certain indigenous radio services (where coverage area matters and they're daytimers to start), and odds and ends here and there, most radio stations are FMs or AM-FM combos.

I wanted to ask your opinion on some of the different types of templates we have for Mexico:

• Standard: FM in the first line, AM in the next line, sorted by frequency statewide. Example: Template:Nayarit Radio.
• American: Sorted by frequency alone or frequency and calls. Example: Template:Reynosa Radio, Template:Tijuana Radio. I personally don't like this.
• Chihuahua/BC: Sorted by frequency within geographic areas. Example: Template:Chihuahua Radio. I like this for bigger states because of the number of stations. For Chihuahua, which is very large and has several radio markets in it, it makes a lot of sense.

If we standardize on one, which should we keep? I'd like to consolidate the AM and FM listings into one box (and list combos one time, for instance "XHCHH 97.1 + 650"), but I'm not sure what you'd want to do.

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, WSM-FM (defunct). First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – WSM-FM#Original_WSM-FM.2C_1941-1951. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at WSM-FM#Original_WSM-FM.2C_1941-1951 – you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions.

Just wanted to point out the introductory text to that list – "The following is a list of the FCC-licensed radio stations...". That's the same on every one of those state lists, and the standard has always been that we don't include any station until they've been issued their license to cover. That's true regardless of whether they just have a construction permit, or they're operating under program test authority. In fact, if precedent is any guide, there probably shouldn't even be an article yet. Not going to get into a thing about it, though - I've seen you around enough to know that you're a good hand. Their license filing has also been accepted so, government nonsense aside, it ought to be issued reasonably soon.

You are correct that a comma is permitted with four digits, but the point is that the article was correct previously.

Per the third paragraph of the lede of WP:MOS, "Where more than one style is acceptable, editors should not change an article from one of those styles to another without a good reason."

It's what they taught in school. Anything with more than 3 groupings received a comma. The only things that didn't were years. Thanks, by the way, for your patience in awaiting my reply.

Additional: I think WP: WPRS needs to weigh in so its codified. Right now, S.W. stations' frequencies are a gray area. Maybe WP: Radio should weigh in too. For me, it seems when a whole band exists over 1 of a base unit vs. 1,000, then the smaller number takes precedence, which is why I prefer MHz for S.W. frequencies. Admittedly, there are a lot of shortwave stations giving their frequencies in kHz, which clouds matters. If we harmonize listings, we'll be doing something even the stations themselves can't agree about.Stereorock (talk) 14:04, 29 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2016-03-29T14:04:00.000Z","author":"Stereorock","type":"comment","level":5,"id":"c-Stereorock-2016-03-29T14:04:00.000Z-Jeh-2016-03-29T13:41:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Sorry but I've been a SWL since the mid-60s... you are mistaken. For current refs, see for example this online guide and this sample page from the WRTH. For older, try the SWL column from this 1971 issue of EI (you'll have to scroll to page 38 for that one), or this one from 1967 Popular Electronics (page 83), etc., etc. here are a couple of Sony SW portables - my ICF 2010 agrees. As does my little Tecsun PL-380. You will find exceptions in some radios (the Icom R75 is one and I believe the Kenwood tabletops are, as well) but kHz with no digit separator is and has long been the notation used in SW program listings.

Thanks for those links! I started SWLing about a quarter-century after you, around 1991. I am a student of radio history and enjoy reading as much historical material as I can. I have seen in old FCC documents (1930s-1940s) that they gave the frequencies in Mc. vs. kc. and the radios showed Mc. as well. I suppose that's due to the fact that, for example 2 and 10 take up less space than 2,000 and 10,000 do on an analog dial. I have a 1979 Zenith Transoceanic that has the frequencies in MHz and I don't know this, but suspect listing kHz became more common once digital receivers came about. I have a Radio Shack DX-402 with kHz figures, but have a cheapy portable that has it in MHz. But, I realize I am just rambling. I should go to bed. Oh, one last thing-you seem to be versed in SI units. Was it 1960 when cycles fell by the wayside in favor of hertz? That is my understanding which is why I wrote cycles for events happening between circa 1924-1959, and hertz from 1960-now. The changeover seems to have coincided with the 1960 metric conference. OK, I'm tired. Goodnight and 73!

Re the pattern for shortwave freqs, well, I did give you two old magazine refs from the pre-Hertz era that used kc (with no comma) for their shortwave columns. I believe it was the 1960 conference that recommended the changeover - it was not mandatory - and manufacturers and publishers just got around to it whenever it was convenient. Electronics Illustrated was by the way an SI holdout; they stuck with kc, megacycles, etc. for many years after PE switched. (The real joy there is that all of those old EI, PE, RE, etc., issues are online!)

I understand the rationale for using kc., etc., for things that happened in those times. After all if you look up the old FCC docs you will not find any kHz or MHz. But in general MOS:UNITS prefers SI units unless there is a compelling reason to do otherwise. Note that when writing about e.g. the pyramids of Egypt, we don't give their height in rods or cubits or whatever the ancient Goa'uld Egyptians used, even though there might be references for those. It wouldn't matter much in this case since the numbers don't change, but additional relevant WP principles are WP:COMMONNAME (which is written for article titles but is commonly cited re body copy as well), and the "principle of least astonishment": The vast majority of WP readers likely never heard of "kilocycles", so the information just flows more smoothly into the brain if we stick to the more familiar unit name, even though there's no numeric conversion.

It always helps when a user in a disagreement sees the opposite view & the reason you listed is why I put things in cycles, as Hz would be anachronistic. When I would read it, it seemed anachronistic, but I completely get that most people wouldn't know cycles; I didn't until the late 1980s when I was about 10. You make a good point about cubits & Goa'uld: I've never heard of the latter & only know the former from trying to read the Bible when I was younger (I gave up).

Goa'uld are a race of "ancient astronauts", and the original Big Bad, from the Stargate franchise. In that continuity, the Goa'uld either built the pyramids or coerced the Egyptians to do so, were the actual "Egyptian gods", and seeded humans on many planets.

There's justification in P&G for deleting any slogan entry that doesn't have a reference.

I get a feeling the banned editor was listening to the stations' streams and every time a liner was played, the slogan category got changed. True, a station can have more than one slogan, and I have no problem with not being up-to-the-second. But, I wonder about some of the edits; there were a few that said something like "Such & Such A Place's 24-hour news and traffic station". They were for stations that weren't news all-night.

I rec'd notification that my additions on Pacifica were reverted. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Pacifica_Radio&oldid=prev&diff=714661159

Pacifica edits I added and then I put on their Talk page to explain what/why were 'reverted' by you same day ? why? There were no explanations nor reasons for corrections made... and they are Not now on the Pacifica page at all. Not just the 2 'citations' removed, nor corrected ? What I contributed is all gone there now.

[did I not do those correctly to put them there ? where then? Those references contain more information for Updating on Current Pacifica process in those 2 references - for readers' expanded information]

Please respond. Obviously I am not a tech person -- but fully informed and updated on many, not all, happenings at both KPFK and Pacifica -- and want Wikipedia to be up to date, not antiquated and useless.

I had inserted 2 more headings / topics that are also eliminated since your 'revert'.

If my knowledge and readings-learnings = that are neutral and not partial nor personally/ financially interested, nor conflict of interests, etc. is unwanted and unexamined, and just reverted/deleted, then I can leave and know Wikipedia is not what it claims to be.

Very very old info was in these two radio station related sites before, mostly written by those promoting their own shows/programs. My attempts to update them some finally and provide actual information and also references as to where to get more info have been deleted.

I'm not super-knowledgeable on HTML either. From what I remember of that particular revision, it was because you put in, and numbered, references that weren't connected to any body of text. What were your liked references in reference to? It looked like you just added links. They weren't references, but just links. Those go in the external links section. As for subsequent revisions, you'll have to ask whomever pulled them down why they did that.

(talk page stalker) PMFJI, but... One: Stereorock only deleted the two links you added at the end of the references section. He didn't do any of the other deletions you're on about.

Two: I'd have deleted those links also. Per WP:ELNO, item 11, if nothing else. Both of them are basically gripe sites, neither shows a shred of a sign of editorial oversight. And as SR said, you just made up two numbers (which would have been wrong the next time a proper ref was added) and did not tie them to anything in the text you added to the article. If I see ill-formatted references I'll usually fix them up, but in this case there was no way to know how to do that (and no editor is going to pore through your text to see where you might have wanted them to go).

Editing WP is very little about HTML. WP has its own markup notation. There is help all over the site; you could start with this. Or you can try the visual editor. But if you just want to put a "bare" reference to a web site into an article, you can use <ref>your_URL_goes_here</ref>. Or if you want to add a description of the site you can use <ref>[your_URL_goes_here your_description_goes_here]</ref>. Someone else will turn it into the fancier "cite web" or whatever form. You'll get the hang of that soon (it's not difficult).

That's works. I wish I could explain better when we use "the" in English, I know it can be a bit confusing at times; it can even vary within dialects. For example, in the U.S., we say "go to the hospital" whereas in the U.K., it's "go to hospital." I am unsure why it varies like it does. If you would like me to look over any further sentences, please let me know!

stereorock guy keeps reverting my contents instead of assisting in any errors in processing HTML and claims biases untrue and wrong. There is no opinion but actual updated reporting of difficult to obtain changes occurring in these radio stations. I have no bias, no sides, no views I want to advertise nor promote, tho you make such wild accusations for your own reasons. Please explain if you know more Facts and Current Events happening at either radio station or umbrella to 5 radio stations. I am not on any board, not benefited and not spinning in any directions, other than wanting others to be updated, and to learn and know what is so difficult to be publicly known. If you have more direct factual information, please advise. Otherwise, I have learned from reverts that Wikipedia is controlled by those who want to control actual, factual info, keeping only old material that was spun before, and thus left on Wikipedia as-if history were accurate here. It apparently is Not. A big lesson learned about this site - that this is not public-contributions place with reports neutrally shown, but controlled and "reverted" endlessly by some who insist only their reverts, views, or allowances are seen here. This must be more than what happens 'only to me' ...sad. Wikipedia is thus not at all info reliable or current at all.

to Stereorock and his supporter Jeh : who have decided that only the Perfect and Wikipedia experts need contribute. And now, given just a bit of new revelations of why my prior reverts were continually & abruptly done, this contributor shall resign. Easily. And let the site remain as antiquated, not verified- nor current, be stuck there. And no one cares if "the public's" image is fake of what this site has implied Wikipedia to be. This faked image of providing the public valid current information - and that contributors genuinely write and allow others to add current/updated information in here not so true -a false reputation has been revealed. Not as what has been declared or desired for readers here. -But what a dismaying discovery for me !

Note that "KFPK" page -History goes all the way to 1992 ...and no programs current or past are listed. And Funding is totally out of date.

Then on "Pacifica" page: The 2002 to 2009 history is not all neutral info nor sources and "oped news" referenced is a person's blog with opinions included too. Which blogs used here that are 'verifiable' and which are to be discredited is not clear. But who cares ?

The work and due diligence already given here is being reverted and retracted, leaving Wikipedia's pages on these topics as un-informative and the old-slants-only available for your readers. You win.

I was wondering about the market it was in, because the most recent market map says that only southern Bristol county is in the New Bedford market, which would automatically exclude WPEP(Providence) and WWTA (Boston).

What map are you using? The market would be defined by what Arbitron, now Nielsen Audio uses. I think for TV, Marion would be in the Boston DMA, but for radio, it's close to New Bedford-Fall River.

Look up the 2012 Arbitron map, and you'll see that all of Plymouth county is considered part of the Boston radio market. Also, what MSA would you consider Wareham in? It is technically part of Boston, but, like with the two Plymouth stations, they blanket their signal into the Cape Cod market.

That is interesting. I never knew that map existed! I don't believe there are any stations in Wareham. Since this is all new information for me, I'll say this: what I've done in the past has been dictated by "where is that signal strongest?" WWTA could never be heard in Boston, but as the map shows, it's part of the "Boston" market & yet is very close to New Bedford. I'm not sure WWTA ever actually operated (I never heard it) & is defunct now anyway. Same goes for WPEP- when I worked there it was part of a part of the Providence market but I don't think it could be considered a "Providence" station by any stretch.

Well then, Stereorock, what would you consider the boundaries of the non-existent Newport market? Because in the city of Newport, all of the New Bedford and Providence stations come in clearly, with the sole exception of WWBB. I even got WMNP today fairly strong, which has been happening every time I am in Providence. Do you think the Newport template should be abolished and put into the Providence and/or New Bedford templates much like the Boston TV template has an area for Manchester-locals? Of course, three Newport area stations are on the New London market template due to their proximity, but I think that they also come in fairly well in portions of the Providence market.

I've heard WXEX go up as far north as Freeport with a reception fairly similar to Boston stations in Providence, and likewise, WHTP and WBQQ both have good reception in Dover and Rochester. Both of these stations have somewhat interchangeable market-wise, to the extent that a some Seacoast NH businesses advertise WHTP, and likewise, I've heard some Portland companies on WXEX.

Ha-I see what you did there! ;p The one thing that I can think of off the top of my head is what to do about the Time/Frequency stations which are both utility AND broadcast stations all in one, that don't necessarily broadcast on those wavebands. Should they be their own line, or do you think they should go inbetween the bands? Some are on the band edges, like WWV's signals on 2.5 & 10 MHz, but its 20 & 25 MHz signals are off on their own (5MHz is within the 60-meter band) and not near a waveband. The same goes for CHU on 7.85 & 14.67MHz, for example. Personally, I like everything going up in ascending order of frequency on the template from 153 kHz to 162.55 MHz, so I am fine with the time/frequency standard stations' frequencies being on their own lines (so the WWV/WWVH 20 MHz signals are on their own between 15 & 13 meters, for example).

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Germany, Italy, the Benelux countries, Iberian Peninsula, Romania, Slovenia etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. If you would like to see masses of articles being improved for Europe and your specialist country like Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon, sign up today and once the challenge starts a contest can be organized. This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant and also sign under any country sub challenge on the page that you might contribute to!

Hi there, thanks for your efforts in fighting vandalism. I've declined several of your recent WP:RFPP submissions because the articles in question have not been subject to the kind of persistent editing abuse that would necessitate page protection.

Hey Stereorock, I noticed you flipped the AM and FM order at Template:Ciudad Juárez Radio. I had asked for some comment on this when you did it to Template:Mexico State Radio a while back (look up on the page) and never got a reply.

Would it be OK to keep the Mexican templates as FM first, AM second? Most of the stations are on FM, and I feel that it would make sense given the environment.

I didn't see that call for comments, sorry! To me, it's natural that A.M. comes first as it is the lower frequency, it is the senior service, & in Mexico, the callsigns (XE) come before the F.M. calls (XH). I was keeping with a lot of the American templates (& some British, Japanese, Canadian, etc.). Also, I would place shortwave in between A.M. & F.M., then if Mexico has weather radio on the 162MHz band, that would go last (unless there is broadcasting further up in frequency). It seems natural & logical to me that the templates go in ascending frequency (some of the British ones do, starting with Longwave).

It does...I disagree with your assessment (given that there are more FMs than AMs in almost all of the boxes and that AMs tend to be second-fiddle), but you do have a good explanation. Only one box even has any shortwave on it (Mexico City). You might also have noticed that some of the templates, namely the newer ones I did when some of the templates had to be split for sanity, take a different tack (e.g. {{Xalapa Radio}} by listing combos at their FM positions).

The popularity of the A.M. band should not be the deciding factor in its placement as that is subject to the whims of humanity. A.M.s could become the top-ranked band tomorrow (highly unlikely, but possible). The frequencies, however, will always be the frequencies & to me it makes sense for them to go from D.C. to daylight (LW first, then A.M., then S.W., then F.M., then weatherband, then digital audio broadcast (except for HD radio which should be on a separate line further down due to its digital nature. Then, it should follow all analog stations)).

Concur with Stereorock. Per WP:NOTRADIOGUIDE, and the related WP:NOTTVGUIDE and WP:NOTNEWS, Wikipedia simply does not carry radio or TV program schedules. It isn't a matter of "not being a kpop fan" - program schedules for all types of radio and TV stations and networks should be removed. It's a question of Wikipedia policies and guidelines. Radio stations can carry their own program guides on their own websites. As an encyclopedia, Wikipedia covers notable events as described in reliable sources, mostly third-party sources. We mostly cover past events because notability of current events is often difficult to establish; it is not Wikipedia's job to cover current events that are highly unlikely to be regarded as historically notable. Radio stations' program schedules are generally not notable as Wikipedia defines that term. We don't cover things like tour schedules for performers, either, despite that many of their fans probably wish we would. With rare exceptions, these things simply aren't notable enough.

The same btw applies to lists of non-notable on-air personnel. Unless they're notable for something other than "they're an on-air personality" these are basically employee lists, which we don't do. Radio and TV stations go through on-air people like raisins through a rabbit, usually with about as much historical import.

Please don't undo my edit on WYBC-FM. If you look at any of the other radio station articles i.e. WNBC (AM), WCBS-FM, KQV (AM), KABC (AM) etc.. etc.. It DOES NOT and never has included the FCC channel number. Unless you work in broadcasting the FCC channel number actually means nothing to the normal/common person.

The channel number still exists, and the stations you mentioned to me are all A.M. stations, which do not have channel numbers, only F.M. stations do. There are several articles around Wikipedia that DO have their associated F.M. channel numbers. So what if it's "antiquated"; F.M. channel numbers still exist, and have been found on F.M. receivers.Stereorock (talk) 19:00, 7 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2018-02-07T19:00:00.000Z","author":"Stereorock","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Stereorock-2018-02-07T19:00:00.000Z-YborCityJohn-2018-02-07T18:37:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Thanks! I looked at the last edit before my initial one, but saw 6 sources, which is how many there are now. Granted, I haven't done a side-by-side comparison. My opinion is this (& it's just my opinion)-the list of bands probably isn't necessary as the AAA format does have some core artists. I am imagining every classic rock station's page saying "WWRX played the Stones, Aerosmith, Led Zepplin,..."; "WFYV-FM played the Stones, Aerosmith, Led Zepplin,..."; there are core artists which AAAs probably all play too, making it redundant. The other thing is saying which bands segued into which other bands reads to me like inside baseball, y'know, or that a fan wrote it. I'm just trying to keep it neutral.Stereorock (talk) 19:27, 16 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2018-05-16T19:27:00.000Z","author":"Stereorock","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Stereorock-2018-05-16T19:27:00.000Z-Vchimpanzee-2018-05-16T19:02:00.000Z","replies":["c-Vchimpanzee-2018-05-17T14:33:00.000Z-Stereorock-2018-05-16T19:27:00.000Z"]}}-->

I only put the list there because the source had them. AAA is not one of these formats where every station sounds the same. I've done this for other stations too. WLQB is another station in that area which was considered unique, and listing the bands seemed like a good idea. Also, several Regional Mexican stations. If sources list artists on individual stations, that seems like a good way to say what Regional Mexican is. Another way might be to put what those sources say in the Regional Mexican article. Anyway, I'm off to double check the source and if you'd like to see what it says, I can email the text.— Vchimpanzee • talk • contributions • 14:33, 17 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2018-05-17T14:33:00.000Z","author":"Vchimpanzee","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Vchimpanzee-2018-05-17T14:33:00.000Z-Stereorock-2018-05-16T19:27:00.000Z","replies":["c-Vchimpanzee-2018-05-22T20:37:00.000Z-Vchimpanzee-2018-05-17T14:33:00.000Z"]}}-->

As a compromise, I would consider "Broadcast play-by-play" as the subsection header (see proposal here).

Can you explain what you mean by putting a translator in its "proper ITU place" as you have done in Template:Newport Radio? I've always understood that when sorting, numeric characters preceded alpha characters (even in the ASCII table). When readers are looking at the list of callsigns, they're expecting it to be sorted with the numerics coming first. --DrChuck68 (talk) 03:28, 26 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2019-06-26T03:28:00.000Z","author":"DrChuck68","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-DrChuck68-2019-06-26T03:28:00.000Z-Template:Newport_Radio_&_ITU","replies":["c-DrChuck68-2019-06-26T13:04:00.000Z-DrChuck68-2019-06-26T03:28:00.000Z"]}}-->

Here was my answer before. I was using lists from ham radio logbooks but in checking the ITU’s website just now, I see they have it differently on their website [2]. Here was my reply for your benefit. It now appears the one advantage left is that it would put translators (secondary) after the full-power stations (primary). “Sure thing! When I have seen tables of international callsign blocks listed, they have always grouped them starting with AAA-ALZ & not the first numeric group, which would be 2AA-2ZZ. This tells me that the ITU prefers numbers to come after all-letter groups. I will say that I too expect to see numbers before letters preceded letters, but apparently that isn’t the way the ITU sees it & since they are the governing body for international callsign allocations, I was following this method. The other upshot is that the translators, a secondary service, are issued following the full-power stations, in keeping with their secondary status. I hope that helps!”

That's certainly interesting, and not something I've heard before. However, when I went to the link you posted, 2AA-2ZZ came before AAA-ALZ. I even tried it in both Firefox and Chrome browsers, but the numeric groups still came up first. --DrChuck68 (talk) 13:04, 26 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2019-06-26T13:04:00.000Z","author":"DrChuck68","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-DrChuck68-2019-06-26T13:04:00.000Z-DrChuck68-2019-06-26T03:28:00.000Z","replies":["c-Stereorock-2019-06-26T13:52:00.000Z-DrChuck68-2019-06-26T13:04:00.000Z"]}}-->

My source before was the ARRL logbooks. I hadn’t gone to the ITU site, but this morning was the first time I had. I figured the ARRL wouldve gotten it right, or that’s how things used to be listed! Sorry for that! Your browsers are displaying correctly. That being said, maybe there is something to be said for listing translator calls after full-power due to their status, but I think that would be a project-wise discussion.Stereorock (talk) 13:52, 26 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2019-06-26T13:52:00.000Z","author":"Stereorock","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-Stereorock-2019-06-26T13:52:00.000Z-DrChuck68-2019-06-26T13:04:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Hey, I noticed your recent edit. It definitely seems you're in the minority in wanting -FM added to every single listing in the template. It is redundant (except when the callsign is for a nested or other rebroadcaster) and I don't see it done in any other Canada templates (or Mexico, which has suffixes on all FM stations; I only know of a couple places I have a suffix in those templates, and they involve AM and FM with the same base call letters). I hardly think removing the suffix as DJSharke did was worth being called "vandalism" and quite honestly think the suffix isn't needed in a list of FM stations. Raymie (t • c) 16:19, 23 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2019-07-23T16:19:00.000Z","author":"Raymie","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Raymie-2019-07-23T16:19:00.000Z-Canada_templates,_FM_suffixes","replies":[]}}-->

Raymie (talk · contribs), removing the -FM suffix, which all Canadian F.M. stations have, except for VF stations, reads false. If somebody is learning about North American callsigns & comes across a template, they're going to be misled as to what the true callsign is. To me, that is vandalism.

As for templates that have full callsigns, please look at the Newfoundland radio templates, or Toronto (which has them in the HD section, even though the listing by callsign isn't there like in the American templates). The system you want of removing suffixes & just leaving incomplete callsigns creates an inherent issue. Let's say there are 2 radio stations: CGA & CGA-FM. CGA has the base callsign. Putting "CGA" in the F.M. section would create a false impression (think of CHUM-FM/104.5 being called just "CHUM". This isn't accurate as CHUM is on A.M. 1050!) Now, let's say CGA & CGA-FM *both* have F.M. repeaters in the same town: CGA-1-FM & CGA-FM-1. Under your system, they would both be called "CGA-1" & be listed on the F.M. band! That is confusing! Which one relays which station?

What should be done is for all Canadian & Mexican templates to reflect the American ones where stations are listed by frequency only (lowest frequencies first (A.M., then S.W., then F.M., then digital)) & there is a separate section with the callsigns. Easy, clean, no muss, no fuss!Stereorock (talk) 11:16, 24 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2019-07-24T11:16:00.000Z","author":"Stereorock","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Stereorock-2019-07-24T11:16:00.000Z-Canada_templates,_FM_suffixes","replies":["c-Stereorock-2019-07-29T03:07:00.000Z-Stereorock-2019-07-24T11:16:00.000Z","c-Stereorock-2019-07-29T03:02:00.000Z-Stereorock-2019-07-24T11:16:00.000Z","c-DJSharke-2019-07-29T02:59:00.000Z-Stereorock-2019-07-24T11:16:00.000Z"]}}-->

The fact all the call-signs are in a group called Ottawa FM, it's presumed every one ends with the -FM suffix, something that anybody in the radio industry, or anybody studying the industry would know. The example you give would be a rare situation at best, and anybody truly studying the industry would be able to get clear knowledge from the CRTC itself. This is a Wikipedia template, and having a continuous plague of -FM in 10s of places is not only redundant, as Raymie said, but unneeded.

Why is it presumed that everyone will know the stations have -FM suffixes? The average person won’t.Wikipedia should give the most accurate information &, for example, having 2 “CHUM”s, one AM, one FM, will lead an average person to believe that both stations carry the callsign CHUM, when in fact only the A.M. does! This way there is no ambiguity! As for my example, it shouldn’t matter how rare it may be, it can still happen. Listing the exact callsign eliminates ambiguity!Stereorock (talk) 03:07, 29 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2019-07-29T03:07:00.000Z","author":"Stereorock","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Stereorock-2019-07-29T03:07:00.000Z-Stereorock-2019-07-24T11:16:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Furthermore, to both of you, Toronto is about the only market which separates A.M. & F.M.; just about all others have the bands intermixed. Additionally, I just edited a market (Central Quebec or something like it), which listed “CBF” on 92.7 in Victoriaville; the link went to CBF-FM in Montreal, which this rebroadcaster doesn't even rebroadcast. It is a rebroadcaster of CBF-FM-10!!! Not only was the callsign wrong, but the wikilink was wrong too!

	US Banknote Contest
	November-December 2019
There are an estimated 30,000 different varieties of United States banknotes, yet only a fraction of these are represented on Wikimedia Commons in the form of 2D scans. Additionally, Colonial America, the Confederate States, the Republic of Texas, multiple states and territories, communities, and private companies have issued banknotes that are in the public domain today but are absent from Commons. In the months of November and December, WikiProject Numismatics will be running a cross-wiki upload-a-thon, the 2019 US Banknote Contest. The goal of the contest is to increase the number of US banknote images available to content creators on all Wikimedia projects. Participants will claim points for uploading and importing 2D scans of US banknotes, and at the end of the contest all will receive awards. Whether you want to claim the Gold Wiki or you just want to have fun, all are invited to participate. If you do not want to receive invitations to future US Banknote Contests, follow the instructions here

Why do the call signs need to be "fixed" ? The links are the same, I'm just making them easier to read. Also, consistency with other state TV templates.

Because the callsigns listed as such seem to have no rhyme or reason! It is not consistent with all other templates, because there are other templates which list the full callsigns! There is no consistency in this template as stations with -TV suffixes in the callsigns have those suffixes omitted in the template, LPTV stations are listed more or less as they should be, but then subchannels seem to have -DT attached to the base callsigns. This makes no sense! All navboxes should list the FCC-issued callsign and not partial or made-up callsigns!

@Dawnseeker2000: These articles should not be DMY anyway because they are America-centric & whomever originally put DMY was wrong per MOS:DATETIES. Please cease changing such America-centric articles to the DMY style as that runs afoul of the fore-mentioned case. U.S. military articles are DMY, however.

No, it's not a black or white issue like that. dmy is a nicer (easier) arrangement and not all American articles use mdy. Some for that very reason.

This comes across as DMY activism. As I said, the U.S. military uses DMY do their articles are written as such, but the rest of American articles (with some possible exceptions that I can’t think of an example at the moment) are MDY because that is the predominant style here in the U.S.. DMY is not nicer: 12/31/99 is nicer than 31/12/99, because the numbers are going up instead of down then up. But, that is all subjective. I have some quite a bit of writing here in the past 14 years, but MDY has been the preferred choice for America-centric articles because of the strong national preference.

Okay, I agree with you that the Signal Info section of the WSYY-FM article had to go, but I greatly value the mention of the mention of WSYY-FM being one of a few FM stations to not broadcast on a 24-hour schedule, typically being on-the-air for approximately 18⅓ hours per day, 7 days a week (from 4:55AM through 11:15PM ET). I suppose that it's all a matter of perspective whether to view such information as Trivia, but in my mind I view that as valid information. When Radio Was is already mentioned in the Syndicated Programming section, so I suppose there's no need to mention that the first and final hour of WSYY-FM's broadcast day is dedicated to that program, for one could just investigate the airtimes on their website; however, I feel that the station being an unusual, non-24-hour station is definitely a noteworthy fact that's useful and pertinent to the subject of the article (WSYY-FM). I'm striving for diplomacy and am just explaining my view here so that hopefully some common ground can be reached. If I can't leave that breif, 1-sentence exerpt in about WSYY-FM's broadcast schedule, I'd probably just chat about it on Social Media (such as WordPress or Facebook); however, I will state in my defense that there are dozens of Wikipedia articles of Radio Stations mentioning a non-24-hour broadcast schedule, even amidst a lack of mention of it in the station's website. For Example: The article to KQMA, for one. I forgot to mention that I'm a dedicated listener of WSYY-FM and listen to the station a lot, which contributes to my knowledge of how that station does things.

@DizzyMosquitoRadio99: Sorry for the delay. Here are the problems: any original research violates one of Wikipedia’s core tennants: WP:OR. Any mention of time for present programming also violates WP:NOTRADIOGUIDE, which states Wikipedia is not an electronic program guide. Your assertion that WSYY-FM is one of the last remaining FM stations to not pros fast 24 hours per day is also original research & trivia. If you could find a 3rd-party source (for example Fybush.com or in a broadcasting trade publication), then it’s no longer original research! Personally speaking as a former broadcaster of 22 years, I find that information interesting & once even visited that station circa 1998 while on a white water rafting trip. But, the Wikipedia guidelines & rules are what they are. Hope you find this informative!

Okay, @Stereorock:, I'll do the mature thing and honor your latest edits to the article regarding my current favorite radio station of which I regard myself a dedicated listener to at the moment (WSYY-FM). Thank you very much for your contributions. We're good. 22 years in the business, aye? Not too shabby. 22 years ago, I was only 17 years of age. I developed my hobby in radio in 1996 at age 16. I'm too young to remember when AM Radio was the primary medium, but I have a real passion for the art of FM Translators being used to "turn AM stations into FM stations," so-to-speak. I will state for the record that the owner of WSYY-FM (who also owns WSYY and WKTJ-FM) is currently working on now websites for all of his stations. If the new & improved website of WSYY-FM features a broadcast schedule where the sign-off and number of hours they spend on the air is mentioned, might I be able to cite that as a source? Three other radio station articles currently remain that I edited to list this trivial data: WVNR/WNYV, WFNY, and WENT. The article for WFNY has already been updated to no longer contain my trivial comments. The article for WENT Radio still contains my mention of the broadcast schedule; however, there is a section within the website of WENT Radio where their broadcast day is listed, including a mention of their sign-off and sign-on times, yet that webpage now appears to be a dead link, at this point If the new website of WSYY Radio were to mention sign-on and sign-off times, might that become a citable source which would allow me to mention the non-24-hour status of WSYY-FM?

Hello Sterorock. Regarding the edits you made here and here, what's your basis for the notion that the article is about "an American topic" and that "P.R. is American"? I have reverted your edits until you can provide rationale backed by cites. As an FYI as for my basis it comes, in part, from cites provided here. Let's discuss and if it needs to be changed to your version, then so be it, right? Thank you.

@Mercy11: Hello Mercy11! My rationale is 2-fold. First, as Puerto Rico is an American commonwealth territory, and not its own country, it counts as “American”. Secondly, per MOS:DATETIES, an American topic (of which anything related to P.R. would be), except the military, gets the MDY date style. I have seen no exception to this rule for Puerto Rico.

Noticed your edit (Special:Diff/994084656) in the |airdate= field on WCSP-FM. I wanted to make you aware of why we have things formatted like that. It's because {{Infobox radio station}} is designed to work with microformats, which provide machine-parseable metadata on things like start and end dates that can be generated by using {{start date}} or {{end date}}. This isn't possible if you use a straight-up raw link in the |airdate= or |last_airdate= fields of this infobox. So when you see these, don't change them; they're there for a reason.

@Sammi Brie:The start & end dates sometimes don’t show anything (like “first air date September 16, 1973 (47 years ago)), so those are the dates I add “XXXX in radio” to, so there is something.

How do we work on this? - Neutralhomer • Talk • 21:59, 17 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2021-10-17T21:59:00.000Z","author":"Neutralhomer","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Neutralhomer-2021-10-17T21:59:00.000Z-WXRK-LP","replies":["c-Stereorock-2021-10-17T23:31:00.000Z-Neutralhomer-2021-10-17T21:59:00.000Z"]}}-->

@Neutralhomer:It goes against NOTDIR(4): “Wikipedia is not an online program guide”. It is giving a list of shows & times which said shows air, which is the function of a program guide. If it were to just list only notable shows & why they are notable (won an AP award or an award of repute & not one where the host’s friends were all able to vote for said host to skew the ballot, for example), that would be one thing. Unfortunately, I’ve seen too many instances where NOTDIR(4) has been skirted solely to advertise some show on some station so the host’s ego can be inflated. To my knowledge, no show on WXRK-LP is notable, and putting the times at which they air would go against NOTDIR(4). Also, the sources given were primary sources from WXRK-LP itself.

The notability would be from these being locally produced shows at the station itself. Since WXRK-LP is a low-power FM, everything on the station is locally-produced, so the fact that the station has three independently produced, individual-format shows for local bands is kinda unheard of for a small market like Charlottesville. That aside, the weekday schedule is written in such a way that makes it not be in violation of WP:NOT#DIR. That's been established in previous discussions, unless that's been changed, I don't keep up with those changes.

I don't think, though, the weekend shows are to "inflate" "the host's ego". To be honest, those changes were made by me. Now, I listen to the station (I think it's a good station and I like that type of rock music), but I don't know anyone who works at the station nor have I actually communicated with anyone at the station (ie: made a request, etc.). It's just part of the state that I live in and that's the area for which I cover (VA, WV, and Western MD). - Neutralhomer • Talk • 23:42, 17 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2021-10-17T23:42:00.000Z","author":"Neutralhomer","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Neutralhomer-2021-10-17T23:42:00.000Z-Stereorock-2021-10-17T23:31:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

New user and I am interested in getting a page for either Clarke Broadcasting which owns 3 California radio stations but owned many more in the past and I have details from the current owner about all of them- I have even formatted them into the table that Hubbard Broadcasting's wiki has. The 3 Clarke owned stations have pages but it also owns myMotherLode.com which is cited many times (by Wikipedia) as an online news outlet that doesn't have a wiki page. My info also relates to Cal.net an ISP in California that doesn't have a wiki. Sources are the FCC, news stories, press releases and the owner H. Randolph Holder Jr. I am requesting if you have time to review what I have formatted and provide advice?

@Sabrala: Responding to this as Stereorock hasn't... The number of stations owned by the company does not suggest it is separately notable enough to merit an article (see WP:NCORP). However, the station articles could use improvement, and I have access to the necessary Merced and Modesto papers to do so if so desired.

Many thanks Sammi Brie Updating those would be great! What also doesn't have a page is the online news website that is referenced many times on various wiki pages: myMotherLode.com it is the community website for the area the central place for online content generated by Clarke Broadcasting's news department including on-air content in its media section. If you can see my sandbox, this is some of the information. H. Randolph holder's father is mentioned in the WGAU page but his son prefers to remain behind the scene. (you may see some drama in the KKBN edits with a past employee, a kernel of truth to it. Still, myMotherLode is a very important news source.

The reason I redirected ZPV1 and ZP1 (AM) is twofold.

• I cannot find information on the specific AM and FM programming, beyond a schedule, that merits separate articles for the two of them. (The FM seems to have hit the air in the mid-90s.)
• Under no circumstances is call sign titling appropriate for these pages. Paraguay is like Uruguay or Brazil or (mostly) Argentina: every station has a call sign, but in no case that I know of is it a common name. (The call signs appear but are either secondary or historic names, I'm noting, at least for the two AM stations; the FM not so much.) The mere existence of call signs does not send a country to call sign titling but rather their common usage.

• @Sammi Brie: I am curious if you saw my entry on each article’s talk page about the facilities being notable per WIKIPEDIA:NRADIO. I am viewing RNdP as the owner, and the callsign-titled articles as about the facilities themselves (this will get extended to a future article about ZP12, which has a different station name than the Asunción stations). It’s like an article for the CBC as a corporate entity and a separate one for CBLA-FM. I’m not sure that CBLA-FM gets mentioned all that much apart from once a day, and even here in the U.S. the station’s moniker is probably more well-known than the callsign (“92 Pro-FM” vs. WPRO-FM, for example), so maybe that policy needs a rethink (I’m in favor of always titling a page by callsign versus the common name).

• @Sammi Brie: Additional: found this Wikipedia policy: “Radio and television stations are broadcast entities most commonly associated with operating transmitters which cover localities or small regions, but often affiliated with larger networks, as above. In countries where call signs are customarily used, such as North America, articles should always be titled with the official call sign as assigned by that country's regulatory authority. In places where call signs are not normally assigned to broadcast stations, the article title should be the officially registered name of the station, or else the name by which the station most commonly identifies itself (for instance, Voice of Russia or Radio Sawa).” That tells me that callsigns should be used in Paraguay, Brazil, Uruguay, etc.. According to the World Radio Television Handbook, there are some stations that show up as “Radio (callsign)” in Latin America, which means there are stations that do use them (I would agree it’s probably not to the extent that we do in North America, but even here, probably the majority of stations only utter callsigns as required).
