[edit] Article name

I have moved this article back to KATU from KATU-TV. Consensus on both WP:NC#Broadcasting and Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Television_Stations#Article_names is that the article name should reflect the actual call letters of the TV station. As can be seen here: [1] the call letters for this station are in fact KATU. Any concerns regarding this topic would be best addressed here: Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Television_Stations. —A 08:54, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Unencyclopedic information

WP:NOT#DIR Wikipedia is not a directory or mirror of information that is not encyclopedic. There is an external link to the website if readers are seeking additional information about this commercial station.Awotter (talk) 00:45, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

The information needs to stay. It is on a lot of other Wikipedia TV sites and is useful. Myhousemf (talk) 01:50, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
It's against policy, you need to please check the guidelines as to what is acceptable in articles and what is not. Just because other articles are also wrong doesn't matter in this case. That is all information available on the stations website and it does not belong here.Awotter (talk) 20:39, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

(outdent for notice) I started a discussion over on the TV project talk page as well, if there is a strong consensus that this can stay (after being cleaned up or whatever) then that's fine by me. I don't want to get into an edit war at this point.Awotter (talk) 21:04, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

I will be fixing your unneeded markings here. Please stop erraneously marking things. It is worthy to stay. Myhousemf (talk) 04:05, 4 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Reference

You're gonna need to say what needs a reference otherwise I'll be taking the notice off. Myhousemf (talk) 07:39, 4 February 2008 (UTC)

The entire article is unreferenced, I'm not going to go through section by section and place citation requests until it's necessary, if there is information that you have added that probably should be referenced, that would be appreciated, otherwise it's liable to be removed. The tag is also there as a notice to other editors who work to add references to articles they are interested in. Thanks.Awotter (talk) 08:31, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
