[edit] Why the revert on July 13?
Article had already mentioned commercial stations, so it was not necessary to include KAET. In the listing of news, Live with Regis and Kelly was not necessary, as no other individual syndicated shows are listed.
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:KPNX circa 11-2006 HD.jpg
Image:KPNX circa 11-2006 HD.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.

[edit] KPNX ID
In the "Chris Matthews Show" example given, the ID shown said "KPNX/DT". Aren't they supposed to express themselves as "KPNX/KPNX-DT", per FCC rules? If not, they might still be breaking the rules. Comment? -- azumanga (talk) 18:26, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Wording in this article
This was the intro to this article. "KPNX, channel 12, is a television station licensed to Mesa, Arizona, serving as the NBC affiliate for the Phoenix, Arizona television market. KPNX is owned by the Gannett Company, with studios and offices in Phoenix, and transmitter located on South Mountain.
It sounds more complicated then it needs to be and also leaves out that this station serves the Phoenix metro area which is phoenix and all its suburbs. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Oak999 (talk • contribs) 06:13, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
- Um, no. How is that complicated, oh pray tell? It's very simple, given that KPNX IDs itself as "Mesa-Phoenix" and not "Mesa-Phoenix metropolitan area". Give me a break. Stop nitpicking, and start signing your posts. Rollosmokes (talk) 06:17, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
- Not true, Oak. KPNX serves all of northern Arizona, except for the immediate Flagstaff area. The Phoenix television market includes much more than the Phoenix metropolitan area. Meadview, Arizona, served by a KPNX translator, is over 250 mi from Phoenix, way outside the metro area. dhett (talk • contribs) 06:53, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
Thank you Dhett--I stand corrected Oak999 (talk) 07:05, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Is it really necessary to list each newscast?
It really seems waaaay excessive to me and makes the article look more like a list than an article. Comments? dhett (talk • contribs) 07:00, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
