Talk:WLFF

This article is a holy mess

I restored what I felt needed to be. A lot of information was taken out in previous revisions and shouldn't have been. I'll admit there should be better sources. It's not my fault the Sun News does a mediocre job covering radio. We're not allowed to use message boards as sources, so I can't say that the information came from there.

If I restored anything I shouldn't have, sorry.Vchimpanzee · talk · contributions · 18:27, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

Where should Sunny 106.5 information go?

There wasn't much here when I started working on it today.

I probably should have considered putting the information on the WSYN page. At the time I moved the original WSYN article here, I was thinking the WYAK article should become WSYN and that's why I did what I did. Then I discovered someone had put historical information about Sunny 106.5 on the WSYN page. When I moved it here, I also checked that person's contributions and he/she had also contributed here. Imagine my surprise to find so much content missing as I went through the history to find what else the person had done!

I restored nearly everything. It could be argued that it's not necessary to say Lou Krieger wasn't warned ahead of time. Then again, I don't recall a source for that. I didn't restore that because it almost sounded like a rant.

If there is no history of Sunny 106.5 here, this can't be much of an article. I don't think it should be the article about WYAK because of the call letter change.Vchimpanzee · talk · contributions · 19:52, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

I haven't heard any discussion on this, although I invited discussion on another site. I think the best course of action now is to rename this article WSYN after moving the information (crediting the contributors) about WLFF to what is now the WSYN article (meaning that article gets renamed WLFF), and moving the current information (crediting the contributors) about WSYN here.

Any objections?Vchimpanzee · talk · contributions · 16:49, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

I have been told keeping the history of the station with its call letters rather than its frequency is the proper action. I don't know where to say I was told this. But until there is official word that this is different, my revision goes back the way it was.Vchimpanzee · talk · contributions · 20:52, 19 August 2009 (UTC)

This is not official policy, but let's please follow it.[1]Vchimpanzee · talk · contributions · 17:57, 20 August 2009 (UTC)

"Wolf" issue

I removed the statement about the dispute with Citadel over using the name "The Wolf" because 1) there was no source and 2) Trademarks are issued by the US Patent and Trademark office, not the State of South Carolina. Whatever the issue may have been, the text does not properly explain it or cite a reliable source.StreamingRadioGuide (talk) 18:12, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

Sorry to hear that. I discovered this on a message board, but I don't think I put it there.Vchimpanzee · talk · contributions · 20:52, 19 August 2009 (UTC)

Oops. Looks like someone may have reversed you. It's not professional-looking enough to have been me.Vchimpanzee · talk · contributions · 20:54, 19 August 2009 (UTC)

I fixed the part where other the station's reputation was questioned. That's sort of like biographical information.Vchimpanzee · talk · contributions · 21:39, 19 August 2009 (UTC)

Possible split

I didn't like the idea of splitting the information into WYAK (defunct) and WLFF, since WLFF would have little information. There isn't proof WYAK continued as WLFF, and someone told me to say otherwise is original research.Vchimpanzee · talk · contributions · 14:38, 13 January 2011 (UTC)

And we went and kept the history with the frequency anyway. I give up.— Vchimpanzee · talk · contributions · 19:53, 4 September 2013 (UTC)
