Good lord...
The next time I want to complain about how people mess up radio station articles, remind me of my last few days slumming it with television stations. When that whole digital shift happened a couple of years back, it looked like everybody covered the main stations, but they left most of the low-power stations alone. 25 articles renamed already and associated links fixed – some that changed their call signs are far back as 2007 – and I'm not even halfway through the list I'm working off.

It's a little too close to CoI, I think, since I'm a member of the workshop. Some editors are rather vigorous about claiming CoI. Adding a list of newspaper references isn't likely to start another flame war, but I don't think I'm going to add text. So I think I'll demur. Thanks for the offer, though.

DWST (1992-1998)
I appreciate the collaborative nature of Wikipedia, and in turn appreciate and respect a different opinion on the Proposed deletion ofDWST (1992-1998). However I am interested in how you can verify that the article is notable and is indeed a government held radio station when there are no sources or external links in the article? (Cheers! Want Anything? Chatty?)Gene-va 01:00, 17 July 2012 (UTC)
