Hi, it's not usual to link to months, or indeed years unless there's a good reason. Dates which include a day and month, and formatting preferences will be invoked by linking it, e.g. [[10 April]] [[1962]], however usually ''are'' linked: see [[WP:DATE]] fro more detail .

WZTV
Please stop reverting the WZTV article. The station signed on in 1968, not 1969. [1] --Zpb52 06:01, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
Advocate request
Do you want me to be your advocate? Does the station's web site confirm your date?
I will be glad to work with you if you have a source, which it appears that you do. Robert McClenon 02:55, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
Independent source confirming WZTV sign-on
WZTV was formerly WMCV-TV. Here is an independent site which lends itself to the 1968 date. It states a certain person, Ken Bramming, was employed by and appeared on the station from October 1968 to November 1969 [2].
After it's cancellation in 1967 Bramming took a radio announcing job, but re-emerged as Dr. Lucifer between Oct. 1968 and Nov. 1969 on WMCV-TV17, and independent station, to host weekend horror movies.
This should provide another source which would not have supplied the Wikipedia clones with an actual sign-on date, but it confirms the station was on the air before 8/5/1969. --Zpb52 03:44, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
I left the "W" off the Category:Radio stations in Tennessee for WPLN-FM because all radio stations in Tennessee begin with a W. If we put them all in the W heading, the category wouldn't well organize the stations, don't you think? --Zpb52 00:17, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
