Controversies edit

I found a web page made by a former news anchor of KQDS-TV and its former colleagues: www.kqdsfox21.com, I'll add some information about the station. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Grejlen (talkcontribs)

What gave you the impression that it was made by a former news anchor? He was a board operator, look at the picture on his site. 71.10.69.93 02:35, 18 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

Additions to Page edit

Please make sure any additions to the syndicated programming section are in alphabetical order. Having the programs in alphabetical order makes easier to navigate through and it looks neater and professional. Also, please watch spelling on the page. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 53180 (talk) 02:31, 25 January 2007 (UTC).Reply

Does the station have a website?

Fair use rationale for Image:Nick&amy.jpg edit

 

Image:Nick&amy.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Syndicated Programming edit

Syndicated programming lineups have been added (and removed) from this section over the last few weeks... I'd point to this section of WP:NOT

For example, an article on a radio station generally should not list upcoming events, current promotions, phone numbers, current schedules, etc., although mention of major events, promotions or historically significant programme lists and schedules (such as the annual United States network television schedules) may be acceptable.

Given that the programming on this station is comparable to that of dozens of other television stations across the U.S. (and is not necessarily unique), I'd say this does not qualify for inclusion. Amnewsboy (talk) 08:39, 26 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

I agree. Unlike original programming, syndicated programming tells the reader nothing about the station. dhett (talk contribs) 19:47, 26 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

Adding unreferenced entries of former employees to lists containing BLP material edit

Hello, Please do not add unreferenced names as entries to a list of former employees in articles. Including this type of material in articles does not abide by current consensus and its inclusion is strongly discouraged in our policies and guidelines. The rationales are as follows:

  1. WP:NOT tells us, Wikipedia is "not an indiscriminate collection of information." As that section describes, just because something is true, doesn't necessarily mean the info belongs in Wikipedia.
  2. As per WP:V, we cannot include information in Wikipedia that is not verifiable and sourced.
  3. WP:NLIST tells us that lists included within articles (including people's names) are subject to the same need for references as any other information in the article.
  4. Per WP:BLP, we have to be especially careful about including un-sourced info about living persons.

If you look at articles about companies in general, you will not find mention of previous employees, except in those cases where the employee was particularly notable. Even then, the information is not presented just as a list of names, but is incorporated into the text itself (for example, when a company's article talks about the policies a previous CEO had, or when they mention the discovery/invention of a former engineer/researcher). If a preexisting article is already in the encyclopedia for the person you want to add to a list, it's generally regarded as sufficient to support their inclusion in list material in another article. cheers Deconstructhis (talk) 16:22, 2 April 2011 (UTC)Reply
