Hello. I will be reviewing this article over the coming days. A preliminary check shows that the article does not meet any immediate failure criteria, and it is quite close to GA status already. Steelkamp (talk) 06:13, 24 October 2021 (UTC)

Good article criteria

Criteria 1

Well written

• What does this mean: co-owned with the Harkins Theatres chain and other movie theaters owned by Harry Nace and owner of Mesa radio stations KTYL (1310 AM) and KTYL-FM 104.7? It is confusing to read. Should it be co-owned by the...? I am having trouble understanding what it is trying to say. Steelkamp (talk) 08:03, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
• The first mentions of Phoenix, Mesa and South Mountain in the body should be linked. Steelkamp (talk) 08:03, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
• I think telethon should be linked. Steelkamp (talk) 08:03, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
• What does a primary NBC affiliate mean? Steelkamp (talk) 08:03, 24 October 2021 (UTC)

• Steelkamp, in the early days of US television, it wasn't unusual for stations to have multiple network affiliations. I've revised this because KTYL-TV never had any other affiliation, but a station like, say, KEDD (TV) would have aired programming from multiple networks with a stronger business and program relationship with one. I've also revised the three bullets above this one. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 02:10, 25 October 2021 (UTC)

• Thank you. Steelkamp (talk) 10:14, 25 October 2021 (UTC)

• Is the Republic the same thing as the Arizona Republic? If so, you should use the full name each time. Also, "the" should be italicised. Steelkamp (talk) 10:14, 25 October 2021 (UTC)

• Yes; I think there's a gap in MOS:THETITLE. I've pinged you on a discussion on its talk page about that. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 00:20, 26 October 2021 (UTC)

• I'm saying that "the" should also be italicised. Not that it has to be capitalised. If the Republic is a shortening that reliable sources use, then It is acceptable to be in this article. Otherwise, it should be at the Arizona Republic at each mention. Steelkamp (talk) 01:23, 26 October 2021 (UTC)

Criteria 2

Verifiable with no original research

• Spot checks of random references shows that the material on the page is contained in the references. All references look reliable. This article passes criterion 2. Steelkamp (talk) 01:58, 27 October 2021 (UTC)

Criteria 3

Broad in its coverage

• I question the relevancy of in part via a major grant from local business entrepreneur Bob Parsons. I think this is too much detail on something that is not about the television station. Plus having a large sentence in brackets makes the text's flow worse. Steelkamp (talk) 10:14, 25 October 2021 (UTC)

Criteria 4

Neutral

Criteria 5

Stable

Article is not subject to an edit war or a content dispute. This article passed criterion 5. Steelkamp (talk) 08:03, 24 October 2021 (UTC)

Criteria 6

Illustrated, if possible

Images are good and relevant. Images are tagged with their relevant copyright statuses. I was a bit suspicious as to whether the logo in the infobox is in the public domain, but it seems to be the consensus on common that those types of logos are in the public domain. This article passes criterion 6. Steelkamp (talk) 08:03, 24 October 2021 (UTC)

General

I am happy to pass the article now. Congratulations. Steelkamp (talk) 01:58, 27 October 2021 (UTC)
